Ultraviolet fixed point
ID: ultraviolet-fixed-point
The term "ultraviolet fixed point" often arises in the context of quantum field theory, statistical mechanics, and other areas of theoretical physics. In general, a **fixed point** refers to a set of parameters in a theory (such as coupling constants) for which the behavior of the system does not change under changes in the scale (i.e., under renormalization group transformations). The scale could be related to energy, temperature, or other physical dimensions.
