متن کاملMetal-insulator transition in two- and three-dimensional logarithmic plasmas.
We consider the scaling of the mean square dipole moment in a plasma with logarithmic interactions in a two- and three-dimensional systems. In both cases, we establish the existence of a low-temperature regime where the mean square dipole moment does not scale with system size and a high-temperature regime where it does scale with system size. Thus, there is a nonanalytic change in the polariza...
متن کاملInstanton Induced Large N Phase Transitions in Two and Four Dimensional QCD
The 1/N expansion of the weak coupling phase of two-dimensional QCD on a sphere is constructed. It is demonstrated that the phase transition from the weak to the strong coupling phase is induced by instantons. A double scaling limit of the theory at the point of the phase transition is constructed, the value of string susceptibility is determined to be γstr = −1. The possibility of instanton in...
متن کاملPhase Transitions in Two-Dimensional Colloidal Systems
This chapter is an introduction to phase transitions in two-dimensional (2D) systems. In contrast to three dimensions (3D), microscopic theories of melting exist in 2D. The most well known of them was developed more than 30 years ago by Kosterlitz, Thouless, Halperin, Nelson, and Young (KTHNY theory). This theory predicts the unbinding of topological defects to break the symmetry in two steps a...
متن کاملThe Dynamics of Small Instanton Phase Transitions
The small instanton transition of a five-brane colliding with one end of the S/Z2 interval in heterotic M -theory is discussed, with emphasis on the transition moduli, their potential function and the associated non-perturbative superpotential. Using numerical methods, the equations of motion of these moduli coupled to an expanding Friedmann-Robertson-Walker spacetime are solved including nonpe...
