Renormalization-Group Calculation of Critical Exponents in Three Dimensions
Geoffrey R. Golner, Eberhard K. Riedel
A scaling-field representation of Wilson's exact renormalization-group equation is derived and used for the approximate calculation of critical exponents for the continuous-spin Ising model in three dimensions. The truncation of the hierarchy of scaling-field equations that retains only the four most relevant scaling fields yields the critical exponents $\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\approx}0.60$, $\ensuremath{\eta}\ensuremath{\approx}0.06$, and ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{1}\ensuremath{\approx}\ensuremath{-}0.47$ (where ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{1}$ denotes Wortis's correction-to-scaling exponent).
