In this paper, we will investigate critical phenomena by considering a model spin-glass on scale-free networks. For this purpose, we consider the Ghatak-Sherrington (GS) model, a spin-1 spin-glass model with a crystal field, instead of the…
We introduce a model for a population on a lattice with diffusion and birth/death according to 2A->3A and A->0 for a particle A. We find that the model displays a phase transition from an active to an absorbing state which is continuous in…
We find all the exact eigenstates and eigenvalues of a spin-1/2 model on square lattice: $H=16g \sum_i S^y_i S^x_{i+x} S^y_{i+x+y} S^x_{i+y}$. We show that the ground states for $g<0$ and $g>0$ have different quantum orders described by Z2A…

The non-Hermitian extension of quasicrystals (QC) are highly tunable system for exploring novel material phases. While extended-localized phase transitions have been observed in one dimension, quantum phase transition in higher dimensions…
We investigate a unitary matrix model with a complex potential with Fisher-Hartwig singularities. We show that the model exhibits finite-$N$ phase transitions. The order of the phase transition is coupling-dependent. At large-$N$, these…
We study the synchronization transition in scale-free networks that display power-law asymptotic behaviors in their degree distributions. The critical coupling strength and the order-parameter critical exponent derived by the mean field…
Complex networks have been mostly characterized from the point of view of the degree distribution of their nodes and a few other motifs (or modules), with a special attention to triangles and cliques. The most exotic phenomena have been…
We consider the Ising model with invisible states on scale-free networks. Our goal is to investigate the interplay between the entropic and topological influence on a phase transition. The former is manifest through the number of invisible…
On directed Barabasi-Albert networks with two and seven neighbours selected by each added site, the Ising model with spin S=1/2 was seen not to show a spontaneous magnetisation. Instead, the decay time for flipping of the magnetisation…
