We investigate the 2- and 3-state ferromagnetic Potts models on the simple cubic lattice using the tensor renormalization group method with higher-order singular value decomposition (HOTRG). HOTRG works in the thermodynamic limit, where we…
A nonuniform system is considered consisting of two phases with different densities of particles. At each given time the distribution of the phases in space is chaotic: each phase filling a set of regions with random shapes and locations. A…

Geometrically, foams or covalent graphs can be decomposed into successive layers or strata. Disorder of the underlying structure imposes a characteristic roughening of the layers. Our main results are hysteresis and convergence in the layer…
