Consider the nearest-neighbor Ising model on $\Lambda_n:=[-n,n]^d\cap\mathbb{Z}^d$ at inverse temperature $\beta\geq 0$ with free boundary conditions, and let $Y_n(\sigma):=\sum_{u\in\Lambda_n}\sigma_u$ be its total magnetization. Let $X_n$…
We study matrix quantum mechanics at finite temperature by Monte Carlo simulation. The model is obtained by dimensionally reducing 10d U(N) pure Yang-Mills theory to 1d. Following Aharony et al., one can view the same model as describing…
Thermodynamic characteristics of Fermi systems are investigated in the vicinity of a phase transition where the effective mass diverges and the single-particle spectrum becomes flat. It is demonstrated that at extremely low temperatures…
