Using Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling, we investigate surface criticality in the O$(n)$ models on the simple-cubic lattice with $n=1$, 2, and 3, i.e. the Ising, XY, and Heisenberg models. For the critical couplings we find…
Ising models with nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic random couplings on a square lattice with a (1,1) surface are studied, using Monte Carlo techniques and star-tiangle transformation method. In particular, the critical exponent of the surface…
We investigate three Ising models on the simple cubic lattice by means of Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling. These models are the spin-1/2 Ising model with nearest-neighbor interactions, a spin-1/2 model with nearest-neighbor and…
The wetting transition of the Blume-Capel model is studied by a finite-size scaling analysis of $L \times M$ lattices where competing boundary fields $\pm H_1$ act on the first row or last row of the $L$ rows in the strip, respectively. We…
We compute two- and three-point functions at criticality for the three-dimensional Ising universality class. To this end we simulate the improved Blume-Capel model at the critical temperature on lattices of a linear size up to $L=1600$. As…
We simulate the spin-1/2 Ising model and the Blume-Capel model at various values of the parameter D on the simple cubic lattice. We perform a finite size scaling study of lattices of a linear size up to L=360 to obtain accurate estimates…
The effect of imperfections on surface critical properties is studied for Ising models with nearest-neighbour ferromagnetic couplings on simple cubic lattices. In particular, results of Monte Carlo simulations for flat, perfect surfaces are…
We perform Monte Carlo simulations, combining both the Wang-Landau and the Metropolis algorithms, to investigate the phase diagrams of the Blume-Capel model on different types of nonregular lattices (Lieb lattice (LL), decorated triangular…
We study the boundary critical behavior of the three-dimensional Heisenberg universality class, in the presence of a bidimensional surface. By means of high-precision Monte Carlo simulations of an improved lattice model, where leading bulk…
Using Monte Carlo techniques and a star-triangle transformation, Ising models with random, 'strong' and 'weak', nearest-neighbour ferromagnetic couplings on a square lattice with a (1,1) surface are studied near the phase transition. Both…
We review the pertinent features of the phase diagram of the zero-field Blume-Capel model, focusing on the aspects of transition order, finite-size scaling and universality. In particular, we employ a range of Monte Carlo simulation methods…
We investigate the scaling of the interfacial adsorption of the two-dimensional Blume-Capel model using Monte Carlo simulations. In particular, we study the finite-size scaling behavior of the interfacial adsorption of the pure model at…
We report results of high-precision Monte Carlo simulations of a three-dimensional lattice model in the O(3) universality class, in the presence of a surface. By a finite-size scaling analysis we have proven the existence of a special…
We design a (2+1))-dimensional [(2+1)D] quantum spin model in which spin-1/2 ladders are coupled through antiferromagnetic Ising interactions. The model hosts a quantum phase transition in the (2+1)D $Z_2$ universality class from the…
Results of large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of three-dimensional Ising models with edges and corners are reviewed. At the ordinary transition, angle dependent critical exponents are observed, whereas at the surface transition edge and…
We study the critical behavior of a generalized icosahedral model on the simple cubic lattice. The field variable of the icosahedral model might take one of twelve vectors of unit length, which are given by the normalized vertices of the…
Continuous phase transitions exhibit richer critical phenomena on the surface than in the bulk, because distinct surface universality classes can be realized at the same bulk critical point by tuning the surface interactions. The…
Recent advances in conformal field theory and critical phenomena have focused on the characterization of boundary or defects in a conformally invariant system. In this Letter we study the critical behavior of the three-dimensional Ising…
Using high-precision Monte-Carlo simulations based on a parallel version of the Wang-Landau algorithm and finite-size scaling techniques we study the effect of quenched disorder in the crystal-field coupling of the Blume-Capel model on the…
Recent Monte Carlo simulations of the critical point of the restricted primitive model for ionic solutions are reported. Only the continuum version of the model is considered. A finite size scaling analysis based in the Bruce-Wilding…
