The changeover from first-order to second-order phase transitions in q-state Potts models is obtained at q_c=2 in spatial dimension d=3 and essentially at q_c=4 in d=2, using a physically intuited simple adaptation of the Migdal-Kadanoff…
We study the semi-infinite Ising model with an external field $h_i = \lambda |i_d|^{-\delta}$, $\lambda$ is the wall influence, and $\delta>0$. This external field decays as it gets further away from the wall. We are able to show that when…
