Abstract
We show that a properly renormalized field theory undergoes a phase transition from a vacuum with broken symmetry to a vacuum with manifest symmetry as the coupling strength is increased with the mass parameter held fixed. The same behavior is exhibited by the model with coupling in three space-time dimensions.
