Scadron %J Physics %D 1998 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s100529901099 %X We consider techniques (based on an ultraviolet cutoff) used to prove that the pure boson ($\phi^4)_4$ field theory is trivial and apply them instead to the dynamically generated quark-level linear sigma model. This cutoff approach leads to the conclusion that the latter field theory is in fact nontrivial. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/9812424v1
