  We study the critical exponents of the superconducting phase transition in
the context of renormalization group theory starting from a dual formulation of
the Ginzburg-Landau theory. The dual formulation describes a loop gas of
Abrikosov flux tubes which proliferate when the critical temperature is
approached from below. In contrast to the Ginzburg-Landau theory, it has a
spontaneously broken global symmetry and possesses an infrared stable fixed
point. The exponents coincide with those of a superfluid with reversed
temperature axis.
