Abstract
Applying the exact renormalization group to scalar field theory in Euclidean space of general (not necessarily integer) dimension, it is proven that the only fixed point with vanishing anomalous dimension is the Gaussian one. The proof requires positivity of the two-point connected correlation function together with a technical assumption concerning solutions of the flow equation. The method, in which the representation of the flow equation as a heat equation plays a central role, extends directly to non-gauge theories with arbitrary matter content (though nonlinear sigma models are beyond the scope of the current method).
