THE RENORMALIZATION GROUP AND CRITICAL PHENOMENA
... The “renormalization group” approach is a strategy for dealing with problems involving many length scales. The strategy is to tackle the problem in steps, one step for each length scale. In the case ofcritical phenomena, the problem, technically, is to carry out statistical averages over thermal flu ...
