Nematic phase transitions in two-dimensional systems
Bertrand Berche, Ricardo Paredes
Simulations of nematic-isotropic transition of liquid crystals in two dimensions are performed using an O(2) vector model characterised by non linear nearest neighbour spin interac…
Static and dynamic critical behaviour of 3d random site Ising model: different Monte Carlo algorithms
D. Ivaneyko, J. Ilnytskyi, B. Berche +1
We perform numerical simulations to study static and dynamic critical behaviour of the 3d random-site Ising model. A distinct feature of our approach is a combination of the Metrop…
Introduction to thermodynamics of spin models in the Hamiltonian limit
Bertrand Berche, Alexander Lopez
A didactic description of the thermodynamic properties of classical spin systems is given in terms of their quantum counterpart in the Hamiltonian limit. Emphasis is on the constru…
Topological transition in a two-dimensional model of liquid crystal
Ana Fariñas-Sanchez, Ricardo Paredes, Bertrand Berche
Simulations of nematic-isotropic transition of liquid crystals in two dimensions are performed using an O(2) vector model characterised by non linear nearest neighbour spin interac…
Criticality of the random-site Ising model: Metropolis, Swendsen-Wang and Wolff Monte Carlo algorithms
D. Ivaneyko, J. Ilnytskyi, B. Berche +1
We apply numerical simulations to study the criticality of the 3D Ising model with random site quenched dilution. The emphasis is given to the issues not being discussed in detail…
Monte Carlo Study of Phase Transitions in the Bond-Diluted 3D 4-State Potts Model
Christophe Chatelain, Bertrand Berche, Wolfhard Janke +1
Large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of the bond-diluted three-dimensional 4-state Potts model are performed. The phase diagram and the physical properties at the phase transitions…
