Abstract:
An exact expression derived earlier by the author for the statistical operator of a manyboson system in the representation of coherent states is used to give a microscopic justification of the effective functional of the thermodynamic potential describing the fluctuations of the order parameter in the theory of
the λ transition of liquid He4. Using the method of functional integration under the assumption that the critical exponent is zero, η=0, a recursion relation is obtained for the functional of the thermodynamic potential in the case of an n-component order parameter. It is shown for the example of the ψ4 model that the recursion formula gives correct perturbation
series. The connection between the recursion formula obtained here and Wilson's
well-known approximate recursion relation is discussed.
