Abstract

In the local potential approximation (L\\downarrow1) the renormalization group transformation for the hierarchical O(N) Heisenberg model is described by a partial differential equation (PDE). In this work we investigate, at criticality (system at inverse critical temperature), the summability of the formal power series in 1/N which formally satisfies that PDE. (AU)
