Description

Tricritical behavior in systems with an $n$-component order parameter $\varphi = \{\varphi_a, a = 1, \ldots, n\}$ is described by the action $S(\varphi) = \frac{1}{2}\partial_i\varphi_a\partial_i\varphi_a + \frac{\tau}{2} \varphi_a\varphi_a + \frac{\lambda}{4!} (\varphi_a\varphi_a)^2 + \frac{g}{6!} (\varphi_a\varphi_a)^3$, where the coefficients $\tau$, $\lambda$ and $g$ are parameters of the model [1].

Six-loop calculation of the renormalization group functions in the model was carried out in $d = 3 - \varepsilon$ dimensions using the dimensional regularization. The model was renormalized within the minimal subtraction scheme (MS) [1]. All diagrams, except seven diagrams, were calculated with G-functions [2]. For the remaining seven six-loop diagrams, the G-function approach allowed to reduce them to two-loop diagrams, which were computed numerically using the Sector Decomposition method [3]. The results obtained differ from those previously known [4].
