Description

Dimensional reduction of finite temperature quantum field theories can be improved with the help of continuous renormalisation group steps. The method is applied to the integration of the lowest nonstatic (n = ± 1) modes of the finite temperature φ4-theory. A second, physically important application is the integration of the Debye-screened A0(x) static scalar potential in the gauged SU(2) Higgs model. 25 refs
