Alternative description of the 2D Blume-Capel model using Grassmann algebra
Maxime Clusel, Jean-Yves Fortin, Vladimir N. Plechko
We use Grassmann algebra to study the phase transition in the two-dimensional ferromagnetic Blume-Capel model from a fermionic point of view. This model presents a phase diagram wi…
