Phase transitions of a tethered membrane model on a torus with intrinsic curvature

Abstract

A tethered surface model is investigated by using the canonical Monte Carlo simulation technique on a torus with an intrinsic curvature. We find that the model undergoes a first-order phase transition between the smooth phase and the crumpled one.
