Coulomb Gas and Sine-Gordon Model in Arbitrary Dimension    [PDF]

I. Nandori
Exact phase structure of the neutral Coulomb gas has been mapped out by the functional renormalization group study of the equivalent sine-Gordon field theory in arbitrary dimension. The high temperature fixed point is obtained and it is shown that the Coulomb gas has a single phase for d>2. Renormalization group equations of the 3-dimensional sine-Gordon model are compared to those of the vortex-loop gas i.e. the gas of topological defects of the 3-dimensional isotropic XY spin model which demonstrates that the two models belong to different universality classes.
