We present a general, rigorous theory of partition function zeros for lattice spin models depending on one complex parameter. First, we formulate a set of natural assumptions which are verified for a large class of spin models in a…
Yang and Lee investigated phase transitions in terms of zeros of partition functions, namely, Yang-Lee zeros [Phys. Rev. 87, 404 (1952); Phys. Rev. 87, 410 (1952)]. We show that the essential singularity in the superconducting gap is…
The complex zeros of partition functions were originally investigated by Lee and Yang to explain the behavior of condensing gases. Since then, Lee-Yang zeros have become a powerful tool to describe phase transitions in interacting systems.…
Phase transitions are typically accompanied by non-analytic behaviors of the free energy, which can be explained by considering the zeros of the partition function in the complex plane of the control parameter and their approach to the…
Lee-Yang theory, based on the study of zeros of the partition function, is widely regarded as a powerful and complimentary approach to the study of critical phenomena and forms a foundational part of the theory of phase transitions. Its…
We present a generalized circle theorem which includes the Lee-Yang theorem for symmetric transitions as a special case. It is found that zeros of the partition function can be written in terms of discontinuities in the derivatives of the…
The seminal Lee-Yang theorem states that for any graph the zeros of the partition function of the ferromagnetic Ising model lie on the unit circle in $\mathbb C$. In fact the union of the zeros of all graphs is dense on the unit circle. In…
