First-order phase transitions, classical or quantum, subject to randomness coupled to energy-like variables (bond randomness) can be rounded, resulting in continuous transitions (emergent criticality). We study perhaps the simplest such…
Universal scaling laws only apply asymptotically near critical phase transitions. We propose a general scheme, based on normal form theory of renormalization group flows, for incorporating corrections to scaling that quantitatively describe…

Parametric scaling representations are obtained and studied for the asymptotic behavior of interfacial tensions in the \textit{full} neighborhood of a fluid (or Ising-type) critical endpoint, i.e., as a function \textit{both} of temperature…
We present a random-interface representation of the three-dimensional (3D) Ising model based on thermal fluctuations of a uniquely defined geometric spin cluster in the 3D model and its 2D cross section. Extensive simulations have been…

The effect of a random transverse field (RTF) on the wetting and layering transitions of a spin-1/2 Ising model, in the presence of bulk and surface fields, is studied within an effective field theory by using the differential operator…
We provide a complete description of the low temperature wetting transition for the two dimensional Solid-On-Solid model. More precisely we study the integer-valued field $(\phi(x))_{x\in \mathbb Z^2}$, associated associated to the energy…
In this work a symmetry of universal finite-size scaling functions under a certain anisotropic scale transformation is postulated. This transformation connects the properties of a finite two-dimensional system at criticality with…
Using quantum Monte Carlo simulations and field-theory arguments, we study the fully frustrated (Villain) transverse-field Ising model on the square lattice. We consider a "primary" spin order parameter and a "secondary" dimer order…

We investigate the behavior of the frustrated $J_1$-$J_2$ Ising model on a square lattice under the influence of random dilution and spatial anisotropies. Spinless impurities generate a random-field type disorder for the spin-density wave…
Complex interactions leading to phase transitions continue to hold a due interest in the scientific community. We charactersize a phase transition in a coupled oscillators model where interactions are not local in nature. At a first order…
We investigate critical wetting transitions for fluids adsorbed in wedge-like geometries where the substrate height varies as a power-law, $z(x,y) \sim |x| ^\gamma$, in one direction. As $\gamma$ is increased from 0 to 1, the substrate…
