- Description
- We discuss the O(N) vector model and the U(N) Gross-Neveu model with fixed total fermion number, for large-N in three dimensions. Using non-trivial polylogarithmic identities, we calculate the renormalized free-energy density of these models at their conformal points in a "slab" geometry with one finite dimension of length L. We briefly comment on the possible implications of our results.
