We introduce a one-dimensional (1D) XZ model with alternating $\sigma_i^z\sigma_{i+1}^z$ and $\sigma_i^x\sigma_{i+1}^x$ interactions on even/odd bonds, interpolating between the Ising model and the quantum compass model. We present two ways…
We study at zero temperature a microscopic quantum spin-1 model on the fuzzy sphere that realizes the $O(2)$ Wilson-Fisher conformal field theory (CFT) in $(2+1)$-dimensional spacetime at a quantum critical point. Here, we use the…
We show how to couple two critical Q-state Potts models to yield a new self-dual critical point. We also present strong evidence of a dense critical phase near this critical point when the Potts models are defined in their completely packed…
Conformal symmetry, emerging at critical points, can be lost when renormalization group fixed points collide. Recently, it was proposed that after collisions, real fixed points transition into the complex plane, becoming complex fixed…
We derive the phase diagram of the one-dimensional three-state Potts model with an additional mean-field interaction in the canonical ensemble. The free energy is obtained by mapping the model onto the spin-$1$ Blume-Emery-Griffiths model…
Employing a deep convolutional neural network (deep CNN) trained on spin configurations of the 2D Ising model and the temperatures, we examine whether the deep CNN can detect the phase transition of the 2D $q$-state Potts model. To this…

Magnetic frustration can lead to peculiar magnetic orderings that break a discrete symmetry of the lattice in addition to the fundamental magnetic symmetries (i.e., spin rotation invariance and time-reversal symmetry). In this work, we…
The Wilson-Fisher criticality provides a paradigm for a large class of phase transitions in nature (e.g., helium, ferromagnets). In the three dimension, Wilson-Fisher critical points are not exactly solvable due to the strongly-correlated…

Phase transitions are a central theme of statistical mechanics, and of probability more generally. Lattice spin models represent a general paradigm for phase transitions in finite dimensions, describing ferromagnets and even some fluids…
In the ordered phase of the 3D Ising model, minority spin clusters are surrounded by a boundary of dual plaquettes. As the temperature is raised, these spin clusters become more numerous, and it is found that eventually their boundaries…
The two-dimensional q-state Potts model is subjected to a Z_q symmetric disorder that allows for the existence of a Nishimori line. At q=2, this model coincides with the +/- J random-bond Ising model. For q>2, apart from the usual pure and…
A hybrid Potts model where a random concentration $p$ of the spins assume $q_0$ states and a random concentration $1-p$ of the spins assume $q>q_0$ states is introduced. It is known that when the system is homogeneous, with an integer spin…
We use Monte Carlo simulations to measure the spin-spin correlation function in the disordered phase of two-dimensional $q$-state Potts models with $q=10,15$, and $20$ at the first-order transition point $\beta_t$. To extract the…

We study a three-state Potts model extended by allowing cyclic dominance between the states as it appears for the rock-scissors-paper game. Monte Carlo simulations are performed on a square lattice when varying the temperature and the…

A study is made of an anisotropic Potts model in three dimensions where the coupling depends on both the Potts state on each site but also the direction of the bond between them using both analytical and numerical methods. The phase diagram…
