To enable the study of criticality in multicomponent fluids, the standard spherical model is generalized to describe an $\ns$-species hard core lattice gas. On introducing $\ns$ spherical constraints, the free energy may be expressed…
We consider the spherical model on a spider-web graph. This graph is effectively infinite-dimensional, similar to the Bethe lattice, but has loops. We show that these lead to non-trivial corrections to the simple mean-field behavior. We…
Molecular beam epitaxy has been employed to obtain Ga1-xMnxN films with x up to 10% and Curie temperatures T_C up to 13 K. The magnitudes of T_C and their dependence on x, T_C(x) ~ x^m, where m = 2.2 +/- 0.2 are quantitatively described by…
