Resistance between two nodes in general position on an fan network
J. W. Essam, Zhi-Zhong Tan, F. Y. Wu
The resistance between two nodes in general position on a fan network with n radial lines and m transverse lines is determined. Also a similar result of Izmailian, Kenna and Wu [7]…
The two-point resistance of a cobweb with a superconducting boundary
Zhi-Zhong Tan, J. W. Essam, F. Y. Wu
We consider the problem of two-point resistance on an m x n cobweb network with a superconducting boundary, which is topologically equivalent to a geographic globe. We deduce a con…
Proof and extension of the resistance formula for an m x n cobweb network conjectured by Tan, Zhou and Yang
J. W. Essam, Zhi-Zhong Tan, F. Y. Wu
An m x n cobweb network consists of n radial lines emanating from a center and connected by concentric n-sided polygons. A conjecture of Tan, Zhou and Yang for the resistance f…
The Virial Correction to the Ideal Gas Law: A Primer
Ron Aaron, F. Y. Wu
The virial expansion of a gas is a correction to the ideal gas law that is usually discussed in advanced courses in statistical mechanics. In this note we outline this derivation i…
The two-point resistance of a resistor network: A new formulation and application to the cobweb network
N. Sh. Izmailian, R. Kenna, F. Y. Wu
We consider the problem of two-point resistance in a resistor network previously studied by one of us [F. Y. Wu, J. Phys. A {\bf 37}, 6653 (2004)]. By formulating the problem diffe…
Critical manifold of the Potts model: Exact results and homogeneity approximation
F. Y. Wu, Wenan Guo
The -state Potts model has stood at the frontier of research in statistical mechanics for many years. In the absence of a closed-form solution, much of the past efforts have foc…
