We consider the critical behavior of the O(n)-symmetric model of the φ4 type with an antisymmetric tensor order parameter. According to a previous study of the one-loop approximation in the quantum field theory renormalization group, there is an IR-attractive fixed point in the model, and IR scaling with universal indices hence applies. Using a more specific analysis based on three-loop calculations of the renormalization-group functions and Borel conformal summation, we show that the IR behavior is in fact governed by another fixed point of the renormalization-group equations and the model therefore belongs to a different universality class than the one suggested by the simplest one-loop approximation. Nevertheless, the validity of the obtained results remains a subject for discussion.
