Abstract

Abstract Godrèche, in Comment on ‘Fluctuation dominated phase ordering at a mixed order transition’ [2021 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 54 038001], has commented on our recent paper Fluctuation dominated phase ordering at a mixed order transition (2019 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 52 254001). This comment concerns the prefactor of the cusp-like small-argument singularity of the scaled spin-spin correlation function at criticality. We remark that the approach used in our paper is adequate for computing the cusp exponent, which is what is really needed to establish fluctuation-dominated phase ordering. Computing the precise value of the prefactor of the cusp singularity is irrelevant for this purpose, or for the physics behind the relation between the mixed order phase transition and the fluctuation-dominated phase ordering—the understanding of which was the main purpose of our paper.
