Partial Breaking of Three-Fold Symmetry via Percolation of a Domain Wall
Soumyadeep Bhattacharya, Purusattam Ray
We show that suppression of vortex strings splits the order-disorder transition in the three-state Potts ferromagnet on a simple cubic lattice and opens up an intermediate phase ch…

U(1) Emergence versus Chiral Symmetry Restoration in the Ashkin Teller Model
Soumyadeep Bhattacharya
We show that suppression of vortices in the Ashkin Teller ferromagnet on a square lattice splits the order-disorder transition and opens up an intermediate phase where the macrosco…
