Universality in the two-dimensional dilute Baxter-Wu model

Alexandros Vasilopoulos, Nikolaos G. Fytas, Erol Vatansever +2

We study the question of universality in the two-dimensional spin- Baxter-Wu model in the presence of a crystal field . We employ extensive numerical simulations of two types…

Multicanonical simulations of the 2D spin- Baxter-Wu model in a crystal field

Nikolaos G. Fytas, Alexandros Vasilopoulos, Erol Vatansever +2

We investigate aspects of universality in the two-dimensional (2D) spin- Baxter-Wu model in a crystal field using a parallel version of the multicanonical algorithm employed…

Monte Carlo study of the interfacial adsorption of the Blume-Capel model

Nikolaos G. Fytas, Argyro Mainou, Panagiotis E. Theodorakis +1

We investigate the scaling of the interfacial adsorption of the two-dimensional Blume-Capel model using Monte Carlo simulations. In particular, we study the finite-size scaling beh…

Scaling and universality in the phase diagram of the 2D Blume-Capel model

J. Zierenberg, N. G. Fytas, M. Weigel +2

We review the pertinent features of the phase diagram of the zero-field Blume-Capel model, focusing on the aspects of transition order, finite-size scaling and universality. In par…

Interfacial adsorption in two-dimensional pure and random-bond Potts models

Nikolaos G. Fytas, Panagiotis E. Theodorakis, Anastasios Malakis

We study using Monte Carlo simulations the finite-size scaling behavior of the interfacial adsorption of the two-dimensional square-lattice -states Potts model. We consider the…

Interfacial adsorption in Potts models on the square lattice

N. G. Fytas, A. Malakis, W. Selke +1

We study the effect of interfacial phenomena in two-dimensional perfect and random (or disordered) -state Potts models with continuous phase transitions, using, mainly, Monte Ca…
