Field theories with combinatorial non-local interactions such as tensor invariants are interesting candidates for describing a phase transition from discrete quantum-gravitational to continuum geometry. In the so-called cyclic-melonic…

We detail the theory of Discrete Riemann Surfaces. It takes place on a cellular decomposition of a surface, together with its Poincar\'e dual, equipped with a discrete conformal structure. A lot of theorems of the continuous theory follow…

The quantum dynamics of a two-dimensional charged spin $1/2$ particle is studied for general, symmetry--free curved surfaces and general, nonuniform magnetic fields that are, when different from zero, orthogonal to the defining two surface.…

A surface model of Nambu and Goto is studied statistical mechanically by using the canonical Monte Carlo simulation technique on a spherical meshwork. The model is defined by the area energy term and a one-dimensional bending energy term in…

We construct a Ginsburg Landau (GL) theory to study the phases of liquid, solid, superfluid, especially a possible supersolid and phase transitions among these phases in a unified framework. In this GL, we put the two competing orders…

Concerning renormalisation group theory applied to phase transitions, we examine the value of positive numerical and analytical evidence, the divergent short-wavelength behaviour of classical free fields and the absence of UV-divergences in…

Non-equilibrium phase transitions of a scalar field in an expanding spacetime are discussed. These transitions are shown to lead, for appropriate potential energy functions, to a biased choice of vacuum structure which can be analytically…
