Gaussian momentum-shell scaling
ID: gaussian-momentum-shell-scaling
After integrating a free-field momentum shell, restore the cutoff with and . The gradient coefficient is invariant, the mass changes as , and a uniform conjugate field changes as . This follows by counting measure, derivative and field factors in the quadratic Hamiltonian. A nonuniform source instead obeys , with the source on the right projected onto the retained Fourier modes. The field has engineering dimension and zero anomalous dimension.
