Critical Phenomena and Renormalization-Group Theory [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics Reports, 2002
We review results concerning the critical behavior of spin systems at equilibrium. We consider the Ising and the general O($N$)-symmetric universality classes, including the $N\to 0$ limit that describes the critical behavior of self-avoiding walks.

Critical Phenomena in Gravitational Collapse

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 1999
As first discovered by Choptuik, the black hole threshold in the space of initial data for general relativity shows both surprising structure and surprising simplicity.

The effect of non-local derivative on Bose-Einstein condensation

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2021
In this paper, we study the effect of non-local derivative on Bose-Einstein condensation. Firstly, we consider the Caputo-Fabrizio derivative of fractional order α to derive the eigenvalues of non-local Schrödinger equation for a free particle in a 3D ...

Critical phenomena and functional renormalization group

open access: yesHe jishu, 2023
Recent progress in studies on quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phase transition and related critical phenomena within the functional renormalization group (fRG) approach were reviewed, including the nonperturbative critical exponents and baryon number ...

Derivation of the Critical Point Scaling Hypothesis Using Thermodynamics Only

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
Based on the foundations of thermodynamics and the equilibrium conditions for the coexistence of two phases in a magnetic Ising-like system, we show, first, that there is a critical point where the isothermal susceptibility diverges and the specific heat

Percolation Theories for Quantum Networks

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Quantum networks have experienced rapid advancements in both theoretical and experimental domains over the last decade, making it increasingly important to understand their large-scale features from the viewpoint of statistical physics. This review paper

Connecting Complex Electronic Pattern Formation to Critical Exponents

open access: yesCondensed Matter, 2021
Scanning probes reveal complex, inhomogeneous patterns on the surface of many condensed matter systems. In some cases, the patterns form self-similar, fractal geometric clusters. In this paper, we advance the theory of criticality as it pertains to those

Brownian non-Gaussian polymer diffusion and queuing theory in the mean-field limit

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2022
We link the Brownian non-Gaussian diffusion of a polymer center of mass (CM) to a microscopic cause: the polymerization/depolymerization phenomenon occurring when the polymer is in contact with a monomer chemostat.

Critical phenomena in Newtonian gravity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We investigate the stability of self-similar solutions for a gravitationally collapsing isothermal sphere in Newtonian gravity by means of a normal mode analysis.

Entanglement and boundary critical phenomena [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We investigate boundary critical phenomena from a quantum information perspective. Bipartite entanglement in the ground state of one-dimensional quantum systems is quantified using the Renyi entropy S_alpha, which includes the von Neumann entropy (alpha ...
