First order phase transitions and integrable field theory. The dilute q-state Potts model

Abstract

We consider the two-dimensional dilute q-state Potts model on its first order phase transition surface for 0<q\leq 4. After determining the exact scattering theory which describes the scaling limit, we compute the two-kink form factors of the dilution, thermal and spin operators. They provide an approximation for the correlation functions whose accuracy is illustrated by evaluating the central charge and the scaling dimensions along the tricritical line.
