We review correlation inequalities of truncated functions for the classical and quantum XY models. A consequence is that the critical temperature of the XY model is necessarily smaller than that of the Ising model, in both the classical and…
We show, that the 2D XY-model with random phase shifts exhibits for low temperature and small disorder a phase with quasi-long-range order, and that the transition to the disordered phase is {\it not} reentrant. These results are obtained…
The aim of this paper is to illustrate that generalized two-dimensional XY models (proposed by Romano and Zagrebnov) may also support a first-order phase transition. Two approaches are employed to accurately determine the critical parameter…
We have investigated the phase transition properties of classical linear sigma model. The fields were kept in contact with a heat bath for sufficiently long time such that fields are equilibrated at the temperature of the heat bath. It was…
We study the thermal properties of the classical antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model with both nearest ($J_1$) and next-nearest ($J_2$) exchange couplings on the square lattice by extensive Monte Carlo simulations. We show that, for $J_2/J_1…
We consider a general class of (intersecting) loop models in D dimensions, including those related to high-temperature expansions of well-known spin models. We find that the loop models exhibit some interesting features - often in the…
In this work we investigate the classical ferromagnetic XY-model in two dimensions subject to a symmetry breaking field which impose a $Z_2$ symmetry to the system. We used the broad histogram method combined with microcanonical simulations…
We discuss the thermodynamics of the O(3) nonlinear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions at nonzero chemical potential (equivalent to a magnetic field). In its conventional field theory representation the model suffers from a sign problem. By…
The classical Ising chain is the paradigm for the non-existence of phase transitions in 1D systems and was solved by Ernst Ising one hundred years ago. More recently, a decorated two leg Ising ladder has received interest for the curious…
We study the high-temperature phase of compact U(1) gauge theory in 2+1 dimensions, comparing the results of lattice calculations with analytical predictions from the conformal-field-theory description of the low-temperature phase of the…
The nematic-to-isotropic orientational phase transition, or equivalently the $RP^2$ model, is considered in two dimensions and the question of the nature of the phase transition is addressed. Using powerful conformal techniques adapted to…
Machine learning has become a useful tool for studying phase transitions in statistical systems.For the two-dimensional classical XY model, however, the topological character of the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition and…
It is argued that two-dimensional U(N) spin models for any N undergo a BKT-like phase transition, similarly to the famous XY model. This conclusion follows from the Berezinskii-like calculation of the two-point correlation function in U(N)…
With Monte Carlo methods we investigate the dynamic relaxation of the fully frustrated XY model in two dimensions below or at the Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition temperature. Special attention is drawn to the sublattice structure of…
The high-temperature expansion of the spin-spin correlation function of the two-dimensional classical XY (planar rotator) model on the square lattice is extended by three terms, from order 21 through order 24, and analyzed to improve the…
We present the phase diagram and critical properties of a coupled $XY$-Ising model on a triangular lattice using the mean-field approximation, the Migdal-Kadanoff scheme of renormalization group and Monte-Carlo simulations. The topology of…
The transport properties of the planar rotator model on a square lattice are analyzed by means of microcanonical and non--equilibrium simulations. Well below the Kosterlitz--Thouless--Berezinskii transition temperature, both approaches…
We consider zero-temperature transitions from conformal to non-conformal phases in quantum theories. We argue that there are three generic mechanisms for the loss of conformality in any number of dimensions: (i) fixed point goes to zero…
The nonextensivity of a classical long-range Hamiltonian system is discussed. The system is the so-called $\alpha$-XY model, a lattice of inertial rotators with an adjustable parameter $\alpha$ controlling the range of the interactions.…
We discuss the critical properties of the three-dimensional NJL model at nonzero temperature. We show that the Z(2)-symmetric model undergoes a second order phase transition with 2d Ising exponents and its critical region is suppressed by a…
