The presence of isotropic Lifshitz points for a O(N)-symmetric scalar theory is investigated with the help of the Functional Renormalization Group. In particular at the supposed lower critical dimension d=4, indications of a line of fixed points are found for the O(2) theory, with evident similarities with the properties observed in the 2-dimensional Berezinsky-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase.
