TLDR
In this paper, it was shown that one-and two-component λ|ϕ|4 theories and non-linear σ-models in five or more dimensions approach free or generalized free fields in the continuum (scaling) limit.

Renormalization and effective lagrangians

TL;DR: In this paper, a renormalization group equation for a four-dimensional λo4 theory with a momentum cutoff was derived, and the cutoff dependence of the effective lagrangian was analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A theory of regularity structures

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce a regularity structure for describing functions and distributions via a kind of "jet" or local Taylor expansion around each point, which allows to describe the local behaviour not only of functions but also of large classes of distributions.

Regularity properties and pathologies of position-space renormalization-group transformations: Scope and limitations of Gibbsian theory

Geometric analysis of φ4 fields and Ising models. Parts I and II

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the φ4 Euclidean field theory with a lattice cut-off is inevitably free in the single phase regime in ind>4 dimensions, and that the critical behavior in Ising models is in exact agreement with the mean-field approximation in high dimensions, but not in the low dimensiond=2.

The P(φ)[2] Euclidean (quantum) field theory

Barry Simon
TL;DR: Drawn primarily from the author's lectures at the Eidenossiehe Technische Hochschule, Zurich, in 1973, the volume will appeal to physicists and mathematicians alike; it is especially suitable for those with limited familiarity with the literature of this very active field.

Proof of the Triviality of ϕ d 4 Field Theory and Some Mean-Field Features of Ising Models for d > 4

TL;DR: In this article, it is rigorously proved that the Euclidean lattice fields are free fields in the continuous limits of the Ising model, and the criticality of criticality in Ising models is defined.
