Limit’s order: first N → ∞ and then ǫ → 0
Analogy to symmetry breaking
For finite N there are isolated poles
∂zg(z, z) = 0 almost everywhere
Example: Ising model with Z2 global symmetry
For finite N symmetry is preserved 〈M〉 = 0
For N → ∞ symmetry gets spontaneously broken 〈M〉 6= 0
Weak external field h breaking symmetry for finite N too
Take first the limit N → ∞ and then h → 0
