We evaluate the thermodynamic properties of the 4-state antiferromagnetic Potts model on the Union- Jack lattice using tensor-based numerical methods. We present strong evidence for a previously unknown, "entropy-driven," finite-temperature…

We exhibit infinite families of two-dimensional lattices (some of which are triangulations or quadrangulations of the plane) on which the q-state Potts antiferromagnet has a finite-temperature phase transition at arbitrarily large values of…

We prove that the 3-state Potts antiferromagnet on the diced lattice (dual of the kagome lattice) has entropically-driven long-range order at low temperatures (including zero). We then present Monte Carlo simulations, using a cluster…

In this paper we study the phase diagram of the five-state Potts antiferromagnet on the bisected-hexagonal lattice. This question is important since Delfino and Tartaglia recently showed that a second-order transition in a five-state Potts…

Using Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling, we investigate the XY antiferromagnet on the triangular, Union Jack and bisected-hexagonal lattices, and in each case find both Ising and Kosterlitz-Thouless transitions. As is…

The critical properties of the mixed ferro/antiferromagnetic q-state Potts model on the square lattice are investigated using the numerical transfer matrix technique. The transition temperature is found to be substantially lower than…

We analyze a three-state Potts model built over a lattice ring, with coupling $J_0$, and the fully connected graph, with coupling $J$. This model is effectively mean-field and can be exactly solved by using transfer-matrix method and…

We study phase transitions of the Potts model on the centered-triangular lattice with two types of couplings, namely $K$ between neighboring triangular sites, and $J$ between the centered and the triangular sites. Results are obtained by…

Phase transitions in 1/4-filled quasi-one-dimensional molecular conductors are studied theoretically on the basis of extended Hubbard chains including electron-lattice interactions coupled by interchain Coulomb repulsion. We apply the…

We prove the existence of long-range order at sufficiently low temperatures, including zero temperature, for the three-state Potts antiferromagnet on a class of quasi-transitive plane quadrangulations, including the diced lattice. More…

We consider a finite ferroelectric superlattice in which the elementary unit cell is made up of l atomic layers of type A and n atomic layers of type B. Based on the transverse Ising model we examine the phase transition properties of the…

We prove that the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on a lattice of maximum coordination number $r$ exhibits exponential decay of correlations uniformly at all temperatures (including zero temperature) whenever $q > 2r$. We also prove…

We study the $q$ states Potts model with four site interaction on the square lattice. Based on the asymptotic behaviour of lattice animals, it is argued that when $q\leq 4$ the system exhibits a second-order phase transition, and when $q >…

We provide a new criterion based on graph duality to predict whether the 3-state Potts antiferromagnet on a plane quadrangulation has a zero- or finite-temperature critical point, and its universality class. The former case occurs for…

We study a square-lattice three-state Potts antiferromagnet with a staggered polarization field at finite temperature. Numerically treating the transfer matrices, we determine two phase boundaries separating the model-parameter space into…

The Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a two-dimensional triangular lattice is a paradigmatic problem in frustrated magnetism. Even in the classical limit, its properties are far from simple. The "120 degree" ground state favoured by the…

We investigate paramagnetic metal-insulator transitions in the infinite-dimensional ionic Hubbard model at finite temperatures. By means of the dynamical mean-field theory with an impurity solver of the continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo…

We apply a newly proposed Monte Carlo method, the Wang-Landau algorithm, to the study of the three-dimensional antiferromagnetic q-state Potts models on a simple cubic lattice. We systematically study the phase transition of the models with…

The phase diagram of the classical anisotropic (XXZ) Heisenberg model on the 2-dimensional triangular lattice is investigated using Monte Carlo methods. In the easy-axis limit, two finite temperature vortex unbinding transitions have been…

Using Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling, we study three-state Potts antiferromagnet on layered square lattice with two and four layers $L_z=2$ and $4$. As temperature decreases, the system develops quasi-long-range order via a…
