1. Beta Function

   Linked via "RG transformations"

   The path leading toward a fixed point is governed by the anomalous dimension ($\gamma$), which is intrinsically linked to the Beta Function through the relation:
   $$\gamma(g) = - \frac{1}{2} \beta(g) \frac{\partial \ln Z}{\partial g}$$
   where $Z$ is the field renormalization constant, which measures how the fields themselves morph under RG transformations.

2. Renormalization Group Flow

   Linked via "RG transformation"

   Theoretical Formalism
   The RG transformation is fundamentally a change of variables that integrates out high-momentum (short-distance) degrees of freedom, yielding a lower-energy description. This iterative procedure maps an initial theory, parameterized by a set of bare couplings $\mathbf{g}_0$, onto a sequence of effective theories characterized by running couplings $\mathbf{g}(\Lambda)$, where $\Lambda$ is the momentum cutoff or observation scale.
   The dynamics of this flow are governed by the [Callan-Symanzi…
