Abstract: (Elsevier)
A 1/ N -expansion at O [1/N 2 ] is applied to the four-point function of O( N ) vector fields. Conformal integrals for graphs are calculated. The necessary renormalizations are performed with different methods appropriate to each case. We compare the result with operator product expansions.
