For dimensionless scalar Landau-Ginzburg theory with quadratic coefficient , gradient coefficient and quartic term , the correlation-volume derivation of the scalar Ginzburg ratio gives . For , solving gives the displayed nonuniversal window. Mean-field self-consistency requires while still staying in the domain of the local expansion. In three dimensions . Numerical prefactors depend on the averaging convention and microscopic normalization; no universal material value follows from dimensional power counting. At four dimensions use the marginal Ginzburg criterion instead of this singular exponent formula.
