Abstract: (Elsevier)
The renormalization group is viewed as a theory of the geometry of action space. A general covariant relation between coupling constant and field renormalization is derived. As an application, the crossover between the two-dimensional minimal modes M m and M m −1 is calculated to two-loop order in a minimal subtraction scheme.
