Surface critical exponents at a discontinuous bulk transition
Systems with a bulk first-order transition can display diverging correlation lengths close to a surface. This surface induced disordering yields a special type of surface criticality. Using extensive numerical simulations we study surface quantities in the two-dimensional Potts model with a large number of states q which undergoes a discontinuous bulk transition. The surface critical exponents ...
متن کاملQuasilinear Elliptic Problems with Critical Exponents and Discontinuous Nonlinearities
Using a recent fixed point theorem in ordered Banach spaces by S. Carl and S. Heikkilä, we study the existence of weak solutions to nonlinear elliptic problems −diva(x,∇u) = f (x,u) in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ Rn with Dirichlet boundary condition. In particular, we prove that for some suitable function g , which may be discontinuous, and δ small enough, the p -Laplace equation −div(|∇u|p−2∇u) = |u|...
متن کاملSurface critical exponents for a three-dimensional modified spherical model
A modified three-dimensional mean spherical model with a L-layer film geometry under Neumann-Neumann boundary conditions is considered. Two spherical fields are present in the model: a surface one fixes the mean square value of the spins at the boundaries at some ρ > 0, and a bulk one imposes the standard spherical constraint (the mean square value of the spins in the bulk equals one). The surf...
متن کاملSemiconductors : critical exponents of the unijunction transistor transition
2014 The negative resistance phenomenon in the unijunction transistor is interpreted as a phase transition, for which the critical exponents 03B2, 03B3’ and 03B4 are measured. Far from the critical point, these exponents have classical values : 03B2 = 1/2, 03B3’ = 1, 03B4 = 3. Close to the critical point, 03B2 and 03B3’ decrease to 0.2 and 0.2 respectively. J. I’hy,viquo LETTRES 41 (t980) L-87 ...
متن کاملCalculating the Critical Exponents of the Chiral Phase Transition
We calculate the critical exponents of the chiral phase transition at nonzero temperature using the thermal and chiral susceptibilities. We show that within a class of confining Dyson–Schwinger equation (DSE) models the transition is mean field, and that an accurate determination of the critical exponents requires extremely small values of the current-quark mass, several order of magnitude smal...
