Statics and dynamics of the Lebwohl-Lasher model in the Bethe approximation

arXiv:cond-mat/0602666 · doi:10.1016/j.physa.2007.03.005

Abstract

We study the Lebwohl-Lasher model for systems in which spin are arranged on random graph lattices. At equilibrium our analysis follows the theory of spin-systems on random graphs which allows us to derive exact bifurcation conditions for the phase diagram. We also study the dynamics of this model using a variant of the dynamical replica theory. Our results are tested against simulations.
