Comment on "First Order Transition in the Ginzburg-Landau Model"
H. Fort
I present clear evidences that for =2 a first order transition takes place when the coherence length becomes of the order of the lattice spacing and that this is connected w…
On the Nature of the Phase Transition Triggered by Vortex-Like Deffects in the 2D Ginzburg-Landau Model
G. Alvarez, H. Fort
The two dimensional lattice Ginzburg-Landau hamiltonian is simulated numerically for different values of the coherence length in units of the lattice spacing , a parameter w…
The Effect of Large Amplitude Fluctuations in the Ginzburg-Landau Phase Transition
G. Alvarez, H. Fort
The lattice Ginzburg-Landau model in d=3 and d=2 is simulated, for different values of the coherence length in units of the lattice spacing , using a Monte Carlo method. The…
Phase Transitions Driven by Vortices in 2D Superfluids and Superconductors: From Kosterlitz-Thouless to 1st Order
G. Alvarez, H. Fort
The Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson hamiltonian is studied for different values of the parameter which multiplies the quartic term (it turns out that this is equivalent to consider diff…
