Real-Space Renormalization Group Study of the Two-dimensional Blume-Capel Model with a Random Crystal Field

Abstract

The phase-diagram of the two-dimensional Blume-Capel model with a random crystal field is investigated within the framework of a real-space renormalization group approximation. Our results suggest that, for any amount of randomness, the model exhibits a line of Ising-like continuous transitions, as in the pure model, but no first-order transition. At zero temperature the transition is also continuous, but not in the same universality class as the Ising model. In this limit, the attractor (in the renormalization group sense) is the percolation fixed point of the site diluted spin-1/2 Ising model. The results we found are in qualitative agreement with general predictions made by Berker and Hui on the critical behaviour of random models.
