The critical behavior of a model describing phase transitions in cubic and tetragonal anti-ferromagnets with 2N-component (N>1) real order parameters as well as the structural transition in NbO 2 crystal is studied within the field-theoretical renormalization-group (RG) approach in three and (4-∊)-dimensions. Perturbative expansions for RG functions are calculated up to three-loop order and resummed, in 3D, by means of the generalized Padé–Borel procedure which is shown to preserve the specific symmetry properties of the model. It is found that a stable fixed point does exist in the three-dimensional RG flow diagram for N>1, in accordance with predictions obtained earlier within the ∊-expansion. Fixed-point coordinates and critical-exponent values are presented for physically interesting cases N=2 and N=3. In both cases critical exponents are found to be numerically close to those of the 3DXY model. The analysis of the results given by the ∊-expansion and by the RG approach in three dimensions is performed resulting in a conclusion that the latter provides much more accurate numerical estimates.
