We looked at the asymptotic growth rate of the beta function in #quantumFieldTheory , and the relative importance of subdivergence-free #Feynmangraph s. These graphs correspond to integrals, and the size of the graph is measured by its loop number, which also indicates how hard it is to solve the integral. State of the art computations in realistic theories are anywhere between 1 and 6 loops. The asymptotics of the perturbation series is known from instanton calculations. We now showed (in a model theory), that the leading asymptotics describes the true growth rate only for more than 25 loops, way beyond anything that can realistically be computed.
This is good news: It tells us that asymptotic instanton calculations provide non-trivial additional information that can not be trivially inferred from low-order perturbation theory.
In the plot, the red dots are numerical data points for the subdivergence-free graphs in phi^4 theory up to 18 loops, the green lines are the leading instanton asymptotics.
