چکیده

We consider the fractal dimensions of critical clusters occurring in configurations of a q-state Potts model coupled to the planar random graphs of the dynamical triangulations approach to Euclidean quantum gravity in two dimensions. For regular lattices, it is well-established that at criticality the properties of Fortuin–Kasteleyn clusters are directly related to the conventional critical exponents, whereas the corresponding properties of the geometric clusters of like spins are not. Recently it has been observed that the latter are related to the critical properties of a tricritical Potts model with the same central charge. We apply the KPZ formalism to develop a related prediction for the case of Potts models coupled to quantum gravity and employ numerical simulation methods to confirm it for the Ising case q = 2. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Geometric properties of two-dimensional critical and tricritical Potts models.

We investigate geometric properties of the general q-state Potts model in two dimensions, and define geometric clusters as sets of lattice sites in the same Potts state, connected by nearest-neighbor bonds with variable probability p. We find that, besides the random-cluster fixed point, both the critical and the tricritical Potts models have another fixed point in the p direction. For the crit...

Geometric Exponents, SLE and Logarithmic Minimal Models

In statistical mechanics, observables are usually related to local degrees of freedom such as the Q < 4 distinct states of theQ-state Potts models or the heights of the restricted solid-on-solid models. In the continuum scaling limit, these models are described by rational conformal field theories, namely the minimal models M(p, p ′) for suitable p, p ′. More generally, as in stochastic Loewner...

Conformal Field Theories in Random Domains and Stochastic Loewner Evolutions

where L is the number of links of the lattice, NC the number of clusters in the configuration C and ‖C‖ the number of links inside the NC clusters, usually called FK-clusters. Criticality is then encoded in the fractal nature of these clusters. The stochastic Loewner evolutions (SLE) [2] are mathematically well-defined processes describing the growth of random sets, called the SLE hulls, and of...

Simulating Exchange Rate Volatility in Iran Using Stochastic Differential ‎Equations‎

‎The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the exchange rate volatility in Iran in the time period between 2011/11/27 and 2017/02/25 on a daily basis. As a tradable asset and as an important and effective economic  variable, exchange rate plays a decisive role in the economy of a country. In a successful economic management, the modeling and prediction of the exchange rate volatility is esse...

Spontaneous edge order and geometric aspects of two-dimensional Potts models.

Using suitable Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling, we investigate critical and tricritical surface phenomena of two-dimensional Potts models. For the critical two- and three-state models, we determine a surface scaling dimension describing percolation properties of the so-called Potts clusters near the edges. On this basis, we propose an exact expression describing this exponent for th...
