The paper studies the quantum action for the five-dimensional real $\phi^3$-theory in the case of a general formulation using the background field method. The three-loop renormalization is performed with the usage of a cutoff regularization in the coordinate representation. The explicit form of the first three coefficients for the renormalization constants is presented. The absence of non-local singular contributions and partial results for the fourth correction are discussed., Comment: LaTeX, 20 pages, 5 figures.

The paper discusses an applicability criterion for a cutoff regularization in the coordinate representation in the Euclidean space with a dimension larger than two. It is shown that the set of functions satisfying the criterion is not empty. As an example, an explicit function is presented. It is proved by explicit construction that there are functions satisfying the criterion in a stronger formulation., Comment: LaTeX, 8 pages, 1 figure. Firstly appeared in Russian, March 5, 2024. Compared to the Russian version, some comments and minor corrections have been added. The forgotten imaginary unit in the Fourier transform has also been restored.

The paper studies the quantum action for the four-dimensional real $\phi^4$-theory in the case of a general formulation using the background field method. The three-loop renormalization is performed with the usage of a cutoff regularization in the coordinate representation. The absence of non-local singular contributions and the correctness of the renormalization $\mathcal{R}$-operation on the example of separate three-loop diagrams are also discussed. The explicit form of the first three coefficients for the renormalization constants and for the $\beta$-function is presented. Consistency with previously known results is shown., Comment: LaTeX, 71 pages, 8 figures. Firstly appeared in Russian, February 6, 2024, see https://www.pdmi.ras.ru/preprint/2024/pr2024.html
