We study O(n)-symmetric two-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs) for a continuous range of n below two. These CFTs describe the fixed point behavior of self-avoiding loops. There is a pair of known fixed points connected by an RG…
In two-dimensional statistical physics, correlation functions of the O(N) and Potts models may be written as sums over configurations of non-intersecting loops. We define sums associated to a large class of combinatorial maps (also known as…
The loop $O(n)$ model is a model for a random collection of non-intersecting loops on the hexagonal lattice, which is believed to be in the same universality class as the spin $O(n)$ model. It has been conjectured that both the spin and the…
We performed Monte Carlo simulations of two-dimensional $q$-state Potts models with $q=10,15$, and $20$ and measured the spin-spin correlation function at the first-order transition point $\beta_t$ in the disordered and ordered phase. Our…
We continue the study, initiated in arXiv:1404.1094, of the $O(N)$ symmetric theory of $N+1$ massless scalar fields in $6-\epsilon$ dimensions. This theory has cubic interaction terms $\frac{1}{2}g_1 \sigma (\phi^i)^2 + \frac{1}{6}g_2…
We reformulate the O(N) sigma model as a loop model whose configurations are the all-order strong coupling graphs of the original model. The loop configurations are represented by a pointer list in the computer and a Monte Carlo update…
We introduce an exact replica method for the study of critical systems with quenched bond randomness in two dimensions. For the $q$-state Potts model we show that a line of renormalization group fixed points interpolates from weak to strong…
We compute the beta-function and the anomalous dimension of all the non-derivative operators of the theory up to three-loops for the most general nearest-neighbour O(N)-invariant action together with some contributions to the four-loop…
We investigate the phase diagram and, in particular, the nature of the the multicritical point in three-dimensional frustrated $N$-component spin models with noncollinear order in the presence of an external field, for instance easy-axis…
The loop $O(n)$ model is a model for a random collection of non-intersecting loops on the hexagonal lattice, which is believed to be in the same universality class as the spin $O(n)$ model. It has been predicted by Nienhuis that for $0\le…
Using Environmentally Friendly Renormalization, we present an analytic calculation of the series for the renormalization constants that describe the equation of state for the $O(N)$ model in the whole critical region. The solution of the…
We consider the O(n) theory in the $n \to 0$ limit. We show that the theory is described by logarithmic conformal field theory, and that the correlation functions have logarithmic singularities. The explicit forms of the two-, three- and…
The renormalization group transformation for the hierarchical O(N) spin model in four dimensions is studied by means of characteristic functions of single-site measures, and convergence of the critical trajectory to the Gaussian fixed point…
We consider replicated $O(N)$ symmetry in two dimensions within the exact framework of scale invariant scattering theory and determine the lines of renormalization group fixed points in the limit of zero replicas corresponding to quenched…
The spin-boson model with quadratic coupling is studied using the bosonic numerical renormalization group method. We focus on the dynamical auto-correlation functions $C_{O}(\omega)$, with the operator $\hat{O}$ taken as $\hat{\sigma}_x$,…
Averaged spin-spin correlation function squared $\overline{<\sigma(0)\sigma(R)>^{2}}$ is calculated for the ferromagnetic random bond Potts model. The technique being used is the renormalization group plus conformal field theory. The…
The renormalized one-loop theory is a coarse-grained theory of corrections to the self-consistent field theory (SCFT) of polymer liquids, and to the random phase approximation (RPA) theory of composition fluctuations. We present predictions…
The RP(2) gauge model is studied in 2D. We use Monte-Carlo renormalization techniques for blocking the mean spin-spin interaction, <A>, and the mean gauge field plaquette, <P>. The presence of the O(3) renormalized trajectory is verified…
We consider the random-field O($N$) spin model with long-range exchange interactions which decay with distance $r$ between spins as $r^{-d-\sigma}$ and/or random fields which correlate with distance $r$ as $r^{-d+\rho}$, and reexamine the…
We have studied the conformal models WD_{n}^{(p)}, n=3,4,5,..., in the presence of disorder which couples to the energy operator of the model. In the limit of p<<1 where p is the corresponding minimal model index, the problem could be…
