Effective Action study of mathcal{PT}-Symmetry Breaking for the non-Hermitian left( iφ³right) _(6-ε) Theory and The Yang-Lee Edge Singularity

We use the effective potential method to study the $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry breaking of the non-Hermitian $i\phi^{3}$ field theory in $6-\epsilon$ space-time dimensions. The critical exponents so obtained coincide with the exact values listed in the literature. We showed that at the point of $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry breaking, the vacuum-vacuum amplitude is certainly zero and the fugacity is one which mimics a Yang-Lee edge singularity in magnetic systems. What makes this work interesting is that it takes into account problems which are always overlooked in the literature for the Yang-Lee model like stability, unitarity and generation of Stokes wedges at space-time dimensions for which divergences occur in the theory . Besides, here we make direct calculation of critical exponents from the dependance of the order parameter on external magnetic field not from the density of zeros of the partition function.
