The q-state Potts model can be formulated in geometric terms, with Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) clusters as fundamental objects. If the phase transition of the model is second order, it can be equivalently described as a percolation transition of…
This is the second of two papers on a continuum version of the Potts model, where particles are points in $\mathbb R^d$, $d\ge 2$, with a spin which may take $S\ge 3$ possible values. Particles with different spins repel each other via a…
In the present paper we shall consider countable state $p$-adic Potts model on $Z_+$. A main aim is to establish the existence of the phase transition for the model. In our study, we essentially use one dimensionality of the model. To show…
Phase transitions of first and second order can easily be distinguished in small systems in the microcanonical ensemble. Configurations of phase coexistence, which are suppressed in the canonical formulation, carry important information…
In addition to signals for the critical point, evidence for a first order phase transition would indicate a nontrivial structure within the QCD phase diagram. Moreover, while not a direct measurement of the critical point, the presence of a…
Phase transitions induced by varying the strength of disorder in the large-q state Potts model in 3d are studied by analytical and numerical methods. By switching on the disorder the transition stays of first order, but different…
Quantum phase transitions have been the subject of intense investigations in the last two decades [1]. Among other problems, these phase transitions are relevant in the study of heavy fermion systems, high temperature superconductors and…
We investigate in this paper the ground state and the nature of the transition from an orientational ordered phase at low temperature to the disordered state at high temperature in a molecular crystal. Our model is a Potts model which takes…
The investigation of the first-order quantum phase transition (QPT) is far from clarity in comparison to that of the second-order or continuous QPT, in which the order parameter and associated broken symmetry can be clearly identified and…
We investigate the critical behavior of the one-dimensional q-state Potts model with long-range (LR) interaction $1/r^{d+\sigma}$, using a multicanonical algorithm. The recursion scheme initially proposed by Berg is improved so as to make…
We discuss the nature of pressure induced phase transitions in standard Quantum Paraelectrics near quantum critical point. From a microscopic theory we first show that near the critical point the transition temperature $T_c(p)$ varies as $…
The Potts model is one of the most popular spin models of statistical physics. The prevailing majority of work done so far corresponds to the lattice version of the model. However, many natural or man-made systems are much better described…
The statement that any phase transition is related to the appearance or disappearance of long-range spatial correlations precludes a finite transition temperature in one-dimensional (1D) systems. In this paper we demonstrate that the 1D…
It is widely believed that the phase transition for the four-state ferromagnetic Potts model on the square lattice is of the pseudo-first order. Specifically, it is expected that first-order phase transition behavior is found on small…
Phase transitions are ubiquitous phenomena, exemplified by the melting of ice and spontaneous magnetization of magnetic material. In general, a phase transition is associated with a symmetry breaking of a system; occurs due to the…
A gas-liquid type of phase transition is found based on the particle dynamics on radius-$R$ circle in which the coordinate appears as the angle-variable of 1D XY-model. Due to the specific appearance of compact-space radius (volume) in the…
The q-state Potts model on a diamond chain has mathematical significance in analyzing phase transitions and critical behaviors in diverse fields, including statistical physics, condensed matter physics, and materials science. By focusing on…
The hunt for exotic quantum phase transitions described by emergent fractionalized degrees of freedom coupled to gauge fields requires a precise determination of the fixed point structure from the field theoretical side, and an extreme…
This article studies the planar Potts model and its random-cluster representation. We show that the phase transition of the nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic $q$-state Potts model on $\mathbb Z^2$ is continuous for $q\in\{2,3,4\}$, in the…
We revisit QCD with three mass-degenerate quark flavors at an imaginary isospin chemical potential set to 4 pi T/3. This choice corresponds to a special point in the parameter space, where the theory possesses an exact Z(3) center symmetry.…
