Popis: We investigate the possibility of using the 4 dimensional $O(4)$ symmetric $\phi^4$ model as an effective theory for the sigma-pion system. We carry out lattice Monte Carlo simulations to establish the triviality bound in the case of explicitly broken symmetry and to compare it with results from continuum functional methods. In case of a physical parametrization we find that triviality restricts the possible lattice spacings to a narrow range, therefore cutoff independence in the effective theory sense is practically impossible for thermal quantities. We match the critical line in the space of bare couplings in the different approaches and compare vacuum physical quantities along the line of constant physics (LCP).
