abstract
Spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in three dimensional ($d=3$) quantum electrodynamics is understood as annihilation of an infrared-stable fixed point that describes the large-N conformal phase by another unstable fixed point at a critical number of fermions $N=N_c$. We discuss the root of universality of $N_c$ in this picture, together with some features of the phase boundary in the $(d,N)$ plane. In particular, it is shown that as $d\rightarrow 4$, $N_c\rightarrow 0$ with a constant slope, our best estimate of which suggests that $N_c = 2.89$ in $d=3$.

Numerical determination of monopole scaling dimension in parity-invariant three-dimensional non-compact QED
Monte Carlo measurement gives monopole scaling dimension Delta(12)=3.24(24), consistent with large-N theory, and positive finite-N corrections for N=2,4 that disagree in sign with the leading 1/N expansion.
