In practice, this only works near the critical point. At the critical point does not change on RG transformation!

The renormalisation group exploits properties at and near T=Tc

Therefore we can write:

some are positive (flow away from the critical surface)

increase with iterationsthe others are negative (flow on the critical surface) decrease with iterations

In the coordinate frame where A is diagonal the RG transformation is very simple:

With all of this, it is easy to accept the scaling behaviour

This implies that all critical exponents can be obtained from y1,y2
