Self-consistent new renormalization group flow equations for an O(N)-symmetric scalar theory are approximated in next-to-leading order of the derivative expansion. The Wilson-Fisher fixed point in three dimensions is analyzed in detail and various critical exponents are calculated.

The presence of isotropic Lifshitz points for a [Formula: see text]-symmetric scalar theory is investigated with the help of the Functional Renormalization Group. In particular, at the supposed lower critical dimension [Formula: see text], evidence for a continuous line of fixed points is found for the [Formula: see text] theory, and the observed structure presents clear similarities with the properties observed in the two-dimensional Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless phase.

It is first demonstrated how the effective potential Veff in a self-interacting scalar theory can be computed using operator regularization. We examine [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] theories, recovering the usual results in the former case and showing how Veff is a power series in the square root of the coupling λ in the latter. Scheme dependence of Veff is considered. Since no explicit divergences occur when one uses operator regularization, the renormalization group functions (β and γ) associated with the dependence of λ and [Formula: see text] on the radiatively induced scale parameter μ must be determined by considering the finite effective potential. It is shown that one must in fact compute Veff to a higher power in the perturbative expansion than if β and γ were to be computed using Green's functions. The usual results to lowest order are recovered in the [Formula: see text] model. Finally, a nonperturbative β function is determined by requiring that the mass generated by radiative effects be independent of μ2; it is found that both [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are asymptoticly free with this β function. In the appendix we explicitly compute a two-loop integral encountered in the evaluation of Veff.

We work with a symmetric scalar theory with quartic coupling in 4-dimensions. Using a 2PI effective theory and working at 4 loop order, we renormalize with a renormalization group method. All divergences are absorbed by one bare coupling constant and one bare mass which are introduced at the level of the Lagrangian. The method is much simpler than counterterm renormalization, and can be generalized to higher order nPI effective theories.
