We consider the Potts model on a two-dimensional periodic rectangular lattice with general coupling constants $J_{ij}>0$, where $i,j\in\{1,2,3\}$ are the possible spin values (or colors). The resulting energy landscape is thus significantly…
We investigate the non-equilibrium dynamics of the 2D Potts model on the square lattice after a quench below the discontinuous transition point. By means of numerical simulations of systems with q =12,24 and 48 we observe the onset of a…
The local equilibrium thermodynamics is a basic assumption of macroscopic descriptions of the out of equilibrium dynamics for Hamiltonian systems. We numerically analyze the Hamiltonian Potts model in two dimensions to study the violation…
Phase transition in the two-dimensional $q$-state Potts model with random ferromagnetic couplings in the large-q limit is conjectured to be described by the isotropic version of the infinite randomness fixed point of the random…
We numerically study the metastable states of the 2d Potts model. Both of equilibrium and relaxation properties are investigated focusing on the finite size effect. The former is investigated by finding the free energy extremal point by the…
The three-dimensional $q$-state Potts model, forced into coexistence by fixing the density of one state, is studied for $q=2$, 3, 4, and 6. As a function of temperature and number of states, we studied the resulting equilibrium droplet…
The interactions between a group of components are commonly studied in several areas of science (social science, biology, material science, complex dynamical systems, among others) using the methods of thermodynamics and statistical…
An asymmetric generalization of the zero-temperature q-state Potts model on a one dimensional lattice, with and without boundaries, has been studied. The dynamics of the particle number, and specially the large time behavior of the system…
We have calculated the large-$q$ expansion for the specific heat at the phase transition point in the two-dimensional $q$-state Potts model to the 23rd order in $1/\sqrt{q}$ using the finite lattice method. The obtained series allows us to…
We construct the exact partition function of the Potts model on a complete graph subject to external fields with linear and nematic type couplings. The partition function is obtained as a solution to a linear diffusion equation and the free…
We study dynamic behavior of Potts model with invisible states near the first-order phase transition temperature. We focus on melting process starting from the perfect ordered state. This model is regarded as a standard model to analyze…
In previous work, it has been shown that the recently proposed LLR method is very efficient at overcoming strong metastabilities that arise near first-order phase transition points. Here we present a systematic study of the performance of…
The existence and limits of metastable droplets have been calculated using finite-system renormalization-group theory, for q-state Potts models in spatial dimension d=3. The dependence of the droplet critical sizes on magnetic field,…
We present extensive numerical simulations of a family of non-equilibrium Potts models with absorbing states that allows for a variety of scenarios, depending on the number of spin states and the range of the spin-spin interactions. These…
We point out that the high-q Potts model on a regular lattice at its transition temperature provides an example of a non-robust - in the sense recently proposed by Pemantle and Steif- phase transition.
For the first order transition of the Ising model below $T_c$, Isakov has proven that the free energy possesses an essential singularity in the applied field. Such a singularity in the control parameter, anticipated by condensation theory,…
Since its introduction, the Potts model has gained widespread popularity across various fields due to its diverse applications. Even minor advancements in this model continue to captivate scientists worldwide, and small modifications often…
We present a phenomenological theory describing the finite-size evaporation-condensation transition of the $q$-state Potts model in the microcanonical ensemble. Our arguments rely on the existence of an exponent $\sigma$, relating the…
We investigate by means of Monte Carlo simulations the fully connected p-state Potts model for different system sizes in order to see how the static and dynamic properties of a finite model compare with the, exactly known, behavior of the…
We report a fairly detailed finite-size scaling analysis of the first-order phase transition in the three-dimensional 3-state Potts model on cubic lattices with emphasis on recently introduced quantities whose infinite-volume extrapolations…
