Abstract

This paper presents a method to write the partition function of ${\ensuremath{\phi}}^{4}$ theory as a tensor network and obtain its renormalization group flow as a map in a space of tensors. The authors also compute the critical coupling constant ${f}_{\mathrm{c}}=\ensuremath{\lambda}/{\ensuremath{\mu}}^{2}$ in the continuum to find ${f}_{\mathrm{c}}^{\mathrm{cont}.}=11.0861(90)$ and compare with other methods.
