Critical behaviour of 3D systems with long-range correlated quenched defects
Vladimir V. Prudnikov, Andrei A. Fedorenko
Abstract
A field-theoretic description of the critical behaviour of systems with quenched defects obeying power law correlations ~| x | - a for large separations x is given. Directly, for three-dimensional systems and for different values of the correlation parameter, 2 a 3, a renormalization analysis of the scaling function in the two-loop approximation is carried out, and the fixed points corresponding to the stability of various types of critical behaviour are identified. The obtained results essentially differ from results evaluated by a double , -expansion. The critical exponents in the two-loop approximation are calculated with the use of the Padé-Borel summation technique.
