The edge-cubic spin model on square lattice is studied via Monte Carlo simulation with cluster algorithm. By cooling the system, we found two successive symmetry breakings, i.e., the breakdown of $O_h$ into the group of $C_{3h}$ which then…

In various statistical-mechanical models the introduction of a metric onto the space of parameters (e.g. the temperature variable, $\beta$, and the external field variable, $h$, in the case of spin models) gives an alternative perspective…

We carried out a finite-size scaling analysis of the restricted solid-on-solid version of a recently introduced growth model that exhibits a roughening transition accompanied by spontaneous symmetry breaking. The dynamic critical exponent…

The influence of uncorrelated, quenched disorder on the phase transition of two dimensional Potts models will be reviewed. After an introduction where the conditions of relevance of quenched randomness on phase transitions are exemplified…

We investigate the first-order phase transitions of the $q$-state Potts models with $q = 5, 6, 7$, and $8$ on the two-dimensional square lattice, using Monte Carlo simulations. At the very weakly first-order transition of the $q=5$ system,…

The changeover from first-order to second-order phase transitions in q-state Potts models is obtained at q_c=2 in spatial dimension d=3 and essentially at q_c=4 in d=2, using a physically intuited simple adaptation of the Migdal-Kadanoff…

Quantum phase transitions are studied in the non-chiral $p$-clock chain, and a new explicitly U(1)-symmetric clock model, by monitoring the ground-state fidelity susceptibility. For $p\ge 5$, the self-dual $\mathbb{Z}_p$-symmetric chain…

We show an exact equivalence of the free energy of the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on a lattice $\Lambda$ for the full temperature interval $0 \le T \le \infty$ and the free energy of the $q$-state Potts model on the dual lattice for a…

In 1983, Aizenman, Chayes, Chayes, Fr\"ohlich, and Russo proved that $2$-dimensional Bernoulli plaquette percolation in $\mathbb{Z}^3$ exhibits a sharp phase transition for the event that a large rectangular loop is "bounded by a surface of…

We present an exact solution of the q-state Potts model on a class of generalized Sierpinski fractal lattices. The model is shown to possess an ordered phase at low temperatures and a continuous transition to the high temperature disordered…

Similarities between fragile glasses and spin glasses (SG) suggest the study of frustrated spin model to understand the complex dynamics of glasses above the glass transition. We consider a frustrated spin model with Ising spins and s-state…

The surface and bulk properties of the two-dimensional Q > 4 state Potts model in the vicinity of the first order bulk transition point have been studied by exact calculations and by density matrix renormalization group techniques. For the…

We study the quark number susceptibility, an indicator of QCD phase transition, in the hard wall and soft wall models of hQCD. We find that the susceptibilities in both models are the same, jumping up at the deconfinement phase transition…

We study the 3D Disordered Potts Model with p=5 and p=6. Our numerical simulations (that severely slow down for increasing p) detect a very clear spin glass phase transition. We evaluate the critical exponents and the critical value of the…

We study several statistical mechanical models on a general tree. Particular attention is devoted to the classical Heisenberg models, where the state space is the d-dimensional unit sphere and the interactions are proportional to the…

Machine-learning (ML) models trained on Ising spin configurations have demonstrated surprising effectiveness in classifying phases of Potts models, even when processing severely reduced representations that retain only two spin states. To…

The $q-$state clock model, sometimes called the discrete $XY$ model, is known to show a second-order (symmetry breaking) phase transition in two-dimension (2D) for $q\le 4$ ($q=2$ corresponds to the Ising model). On the other hand, the…

The phase diagram and critical properties of the $N$-component London superconductor are studied both analytically and through large-scale Monte-Carlo simulations in $d=2+1$ dimensions (components here refer to different replicas of the…

Using the tensor renormalization group method based on the higher-order singular value decomposition,we have studied the phase transitions of the five-state clock model on the square lattice.The temperature dependence of the specific heat…

A Griffiths phase has recently been observed by Monte Carlo simulations in the 2D $q$-state Potts model with strongly correlated quenched random couplings. In particular, the magnetic susceptibility was shown to diverge algebraically with…
