Identifying the asymptotic criticality of a critical endpoint is challenging, as pseudo-first-order signatures persist over accessible system sizes and mask its underlying critical nature. This ambiguity is amplified at endpoints controlled…
In liquid mixtures and other binary systems at low temperatures the pure phases may coexist, separated by an interface. The interface tension vanishes according to $\sigma = \sigma_0 (1 - T/T_c)^{\mu}$ as the temperature T approaches the…

Geometric representations provide a useful perspective on critical phenomena in the Ising model. In a recent study [Phys. Rev. E 112, 034118 (2025)], we found that the two-dimensional critical Ising model exhibits two consecutive…
In this thesis, we present results on phase transition for two models: the semi-infinite Ising model with a decaying field, and the long-range Ising model with a random field. We study the semi-infinite Ising model with an external field…
We study the mass-conserved reaction-diffusion system known as the wave-pinning model, which serves as a minimal framework for describing cell polarity. In this model, the interplay between reaction kinetics and slow diffusion forms a sharp…
We consider numerically the depinning transition in the random-field Ising model. Our analysis reveals that the three and four dimensional model displays a simple scaling behavior whereas the five dimensional scaling behavior is affected by…
There is a well known analogy between the Laughlin trial wave function for the fractional quantum Hall effect, and the Boltzmann factor for the two-dimensional one-component plasma. The latter requires analytic continuation beyond the…
