Correction exponents in the chiral Heisenberg model at $1/N^2$: singular contributions and operator mixing

Abstract

We calculate the correction exponents in the chiral Heisenberg model in the $1/N$ expansion. These exponents are related to the slopes of $\beta$ functions at the phase transition point. We present the results at order $1/N^2$ and check that they agree with the results of the $\epsilon$ expansion near $d=4$. We find that one of the correction exponents diverges as $d\to 3$. We argue that the appearance of the pole is a rather general phenomenon and is associated with operator mixing involving the system of four-fermion operators. After analyzing the operator mixing structure, we propose a resummation procedure which modifies the exponents already at leading order. We also perform calculations directly in the three-dimensional model and find complete agreement with the resummed exponents.
