We prove the existence of a tricritical point for the Blume-Capel model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for every $d\geq 2$. The proof in $d\geq 3$ relies on a novel combinatorial mapping to an Ising model on a larger graph, the techniques of Aizenman,…
The exchange or geometric cluster algorithm allows us to define a variance reduced estimator of the connected two-point function in the presence of a broken Z_2-symmetry. We present first numerical tests for the improved Blume-Capel model…
We study the scaling properties of critical particle systems confined by a potential. Using renormalization-group arguments, we show that their critical behavior can be cast in the form of a trap-size scaling, resembling finite-size scaling…
We introduce a two-temperature Ising model as a prototype of superstatistic critical phenomena. The model is described by two temperatures ($T_1,T_2$) in zero magnetic field. To predict the phase diagram and numerically estimate the…

We study a variation of the dynamic universality class of model H in a spatial dimension of $d=4-\epsilon$, by frustrating charge diffusion and momentum density fluctuations along $d_T=1$ or $d_T=2$ dimensions, while keeping the same…
We investigate the short-time critical dynamics of the Baxter-Wu (BW) and $n=3$ Turban (3TU) models to estimate their global persistence exponent $\theta _{g}$. We conclude that this new dynamical exponent can be useful in detecting…
We describe numerical simulations of the stochastic diffusion equation with a conserved charge. We focus on the dynamics in the vicinity of a critical point in the Ising universality class. The model we consider is expected to describe the…

Persistence in coarsening 1D spin systems with a power law interaction $r^{-1-\sigma}$ is considered. Numerical studies indicate that for sufficiently large values of the interaction exponent $\sigma$ ($\sigma\geq 1/2$ in our simulations),…
The three-dimensional equations for the compressible flow of liquid crystals are considered. An initial-boundary value problem is studied in a bounded domain with large data. The existence and large-time behavior of a global weak solution…
Using Monte Carlo simulations, we show that for a certain model of biological evolution, which is driven by non-extremal dynamics, active and absorbing phases are separated by a critical phase. In this phase both the density of active sites…
In extensive Monte Carlo simulations the phase transition of the random field Ising model in three dimensions is investigated. The values of the critical exponents are determined via finite size scaling. For a Gaussian distribution of the…
Universality has been a key concept for the classification of equilibrium critical phenomena, allowing associations among different physical processes and models. When dealing with non-equilibrium problems, however, the distinction in…
The persistence exponent, theta, is defined by N_F sim t^theta, where t is the time since the start of the coarsening process and the "no-flip fraction", N_F, is the number of points that have not seen a change of "color" since t=0. Here we…
In this work the two-dimensional Ising model with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions is revisited. We obtain the dynamic critical exponents $z$ and $\theta$ from short-time Monte Carlo simulations. The dynamic critical exponent…
Hysteresis is observed at second order phase transitions. Universal scaling formul\ae{} for the areas of hysteresis loops are written down. Critical exponents are defined, and related to other exponents for static and dynamic critical…
The dynamic process for the two dimensional three state Potts model in the critical domain is simulated by the Monte Carlo method. It is shown that the critical point can rigorously be located from the universal short-time behaviour. This…
We introduce a parameter $p$, called partial survival, in the persistence of stochastic processes and show that for smooth processes the persistence exponent $\theta(p)$ changes continuously with $p$, $\theta(0)$ being the usual persistence…
In three dimensions, or more generally, below the upper critical dimension, scaling laws for critical phenomena seem well understood, for both infinite and for finite systems. Above the upper critical dimension of four, finite-size scaling…
