Abstract

Recently the series for two renormalization group functions (corresponding to the anomalous dimensions of the fields and ) of the three-dimensional field theory have been extended to next order (seven loops) by Murray and Nickel. We examine the influence of these additional terms on the estimates of critical exponents of the N -vector model, using some new ideas in the context of the Borel summation techniques. The estimates have slightly changed, but remain within the errors of the previous evaluation. Exponents such as (related to the field anomalous dimension), which were poorly determined in the previous evaluation of Le Guillou-Zinn-Justin, have seen their apparent errors significantly decrease. More importantly, perhaps, summation errors are better determined. The change in exponents affects the recently determined ratios of amplitudes and we report the corresponding new values. Finally, because an error has been discovered in the last order of the published expansions (order ), we have also re-analysed the determination of exponents from the -expansion. The conclusion is that the general agreement between -expansion and three-dimensional series has improved with respect to Le Guillou-Zinn-Justin.
