Many known models, which generally use a factorization hypothesis, give a poor account of the decays B into J/psi + K(*). Usually there is a free overall factor, which is fit to the data, so that tests of the models rely upon ratios. The…
In a recent paper by Wu (Phys. Lett. A 228, 43-47 (1997)) the three-point correlation of the q-state Potts model on a planar graph was related to ratios of dual partition functions under fixed boundary conditions. It was claimed that the…
The Potts model is one of the most popular spin models of statistical physics. The prevailing majority of work done so far corresponds to the lattice version of the model. However, many natural or man-made systems are much better described…
