Hi,
Suppose you have a collection of fields \phi^i (t,x) depending on time and on 1 space variable, for i=1,...,N. Its dynamics is defined by the Lagrangian
L=\frac{1}{2} g_{ij}(\phi) (\dot{\phi}^i \dot{\phi}^j - \phi ' ^i \phi ' ^j ) + b_{ij}(\phi) \dot{\phi}^i \phi ' ^j

In http://arxiv.org/abs/0912.3272 , figure 1.2 says that the 2D and 3D Ising universality classes are related by a renormalization flow. How can the RG flow change dimension? Is there anything I could read that does the calculation in more detail?
Since spin is a separate variable in a wave function, independent from its location in spacetime, why isn't it considered a dimension beyond the 3+1 of spacetime?
Is it true that strings can vibrate in certain manners in which they cause a "ripple effect" in spacetime, affecting the topology of the higher dimensions, causing these different timelines to occur in which you have changes so minor as to electrons a plank's unit to the right, or so drastic as...
