The canonical massive continuum limit of the two-dimensional O(3) model

We construct a canonical interacting massive continuum limit of the two-dimensional nearest-neighbor $O(3)$ model with unit-length spins, no external field, and no topological term. Normalized by susceptibility and second-moment correlation length, the limit exists as the bare coupling tends to infinity through all positive real values, without selecting subsequences. The limiting fields satisfy the Osterwalder–Schrader axioms and have a nonzero connected four-point correlation on separated time supports. Their reconstructed theory has a unique vacuum, a nonzero vacuum complement, and a positive Hamiltonian gap on that entire complement.
