Research summary
Starting from the exact spherical constraint and Green function, the paper completes the finite-size scaling of a three-dimensional mean spherical film with Neumann-Dirichlet boundaries and surface fields below the shifted critical point. It proves uniqueness of the scaled equation-of-state root and gives analytic hyperbolic/trigonometric continuations and surface-field corrections.
