In this article we report a preliminary investigation of the large $N$ limit of a generalized one-matrix model which represents an $O(n)$ symmetric model on a random lattice. The model on a regular lattice is known to be critical only for…
Using Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling analysis, we show that the $q$-state clock model with $q=6$ on the simple cubic lattice with open surfaces has a rich phase diagram; in particular, it has an extraordinary-log phase,…

Recently, the number of non-standard percolation models has proliferated. In all these models, there exists a phase transition at which long range connectivity is established, if local connectedness increases through a threshold $p_c$. In…
Using Monte Carlo simulations, we consider the lattice version of the $O(N)\otimes O(M)$ sigma model for $2\leq M\leq4$ and $M\leq N \leq8$. We find a continuous transition for $N\geq M+4$. Estimates of the critical exponents for cases of…
We study a classical spin model (more precisely a class of models) with O(N) symmetry that can be viewed as a simplified $D$ dimensional lattice model. It is equivalent to a non-translationinvariant one dimensional model and contains the…

We present, as a very general method, an effective field theory to analyze models defined over small-world networks. Even if the exactness of the method is limited to the paramagnetic regions and to some special limits, it gives the exact…
Motivated by our previous study of the Twisted Eguchi-Kawai model for non minimal twists, we re-examined the behaviour of the reduced version of the two dimensional principal chiral model. We show that this single matrix model reproduces…
For $n\in [-2,2]$ the $O(n)$ model on a random lattice has critical points to which a scaling behaviour characteristic of 2D gravity interacting with conformal matter fields with $c\in [-\infty,1]$ can be associated. Previously we have…
It is known that the classical $O(N)$ model in dimension $d > 3$ at its bulk critical point admits three boundary universality classes: the ordinary, the extra-ordinary and the special. For the ordinary transition the bulk and the boundary…
The critical behavior at the ordinary transition in semi-infinite n-component anisotropic cubic models is investigated by applying the field theoretic approach in d=3 dimensions up to the two-loop approximation. Numerical estimates of the…
