Renormalized higher-order perturbation theory and universal amplitude ratios in the O(n)-symmetric φ4 model below TC

Description

This thesis is dedicated to the theoretical study of second-order phase transitions by means of the field-theoretical methods of the phi4 model. The main goal of this study is the correct description of the temperature dependence of thermodynamic quantities like the correlation length, the susceptibility, or the specific heat, which exhibit near the critical point singular behaviour
