In the pseudogap regime of one-dimensional incommensurate Peierls systems, fluctuations of the phase of the order parameter prohibit the emergence of long-range order and generate a finite correlation length. For classical phase…
For the $q-$state Potts model new order parameters projecting on a group of spins instead of a single spin are introduced. On a Cayley tree this allows the physical interpretation of the Potts model at noninteger values q of the number of…
