The critical effective potential is the nonperturbative part of the effective action at a phase transition. It equals the scale invariant effective average potential and can be calculated from the renormalization group flow of the effective…
There are two independent critical exponents that describe the behavior of systems near their critical point. However, at the critical point only the exponent $\eta$, which describes the decay of the correlation function, is usually…

We study through numerical simulation the spherical collapse of isothermal gas in Newtonian gravity. We observe a critical behavior which occurs at the threshold of gravitational instability leading to core formation. For a given initial…
We find the exact critical temperature $T_c$ of the nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic Ising model on an `equilibrium' random graph with an arbitrary degree distribution $P(k)$. We observe an anomalous behavior of the magnetization, magnetic…
We consider systems which exhibit typical critical dependence of the specific heat: $\Delta c\varpropto (T_C-T)^{-\gamma}$ ($T<T_C$); $\Delta c\varpropto (T-T_C)^{-\gamma ^{\prime}}$ ($T>T_C$) where $\gamma $,$\gamma ^{\prime}$ are critical…
We present the detailed study of the thermodynamics of vibrational modes in disordered elastic systems such as the Bragg glass phase of lattices pinned by quenched impurities. Our study and our results are valid within the (mean field)…

We explain in a consistent manner the set of seemingly conflicting experiments on the finite temperature Mott critical point, and demonstrate that the Mott transition is in the Ising universality class. We show that, even though the…
Order parameter fluctuations for the two dimensional Ising model in the region of the critical temperature are presented. A locus of temperatures T*(L) and of magnetic fields B*(L) are identified, for which the probability density function…
The problem of identifying the phase of a given system for a certain value of the temperature can be reformulated as a classification problem in Machine Learning. Taking as a prototype the Ising model and using the Support Vector Machine as…
$\lambda\varphi^4$ theory at finite temperature suffers from infrared divergences near the temperature at which the symmetry is restored. These divergences are handled using renormalization group methods. Flow equations which use a fiducial…
Using a simple model of a frustrated helimagnet, the critical behavior is numerically investigated for planar or isotropic spins, and for cases of one or two chiral order parameters. The helical structure in this model arises from the…
We investigated the Ising model on a square lattice with ferro and antiferromagnetic interactions modulated by the quasiperiodic Octonacci sequence in both directions of the lattice. We have applied the Replica Exchange Monte Carlo…
We divide the free energy near the critical point into two parts. One is the regular part, the other is the singular part. The singular part is assumed to be a concrete possible form. The singular part in this form is different from Widom…
We use scale invariant scattering theory to obtain the exact equations determining the renormalization group fixed points of the two-dimensional $CP^{N-1}$ model, for $N$ real. Also due to special degeneracies at $N=2$ and 3, the space of…
