abstract
The equation of state of the universality class of the 3D Ising model is determined numerically in the critical domain from quantum field theory and renormalization group techniques. The starting point is the five loop perturbative expansion of the effective potential (or free energy) in the framework of renormalized $\phi^4_3$ field theory. The 3D perturbative expansion is summed, using a Borel transformation and a mapping based on large order behaviour results. It is known that the equation of state has parametric representations which incorporate in a simple way its scaling and regularity properties. We show that such a representation can be used to accurately determine it from the knowledge of the few first coefficients of the expansion for small magnetization. Revised values of amplitude ratios are deduced. Finally we compare the 3D values with the results obtained by the same method from the $\epsilon=4-d$ expansion.
