Critical phenomena and renormalization-group theory

A Pelissetto, E Vicari - Physics Reports, 2002 - Elsevier
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→ 0 …

Kosterlitz-Thouless scaling at many-body localization phase transitions

PT Dumitrescu, A Goremykina, SA Parameswaran… - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
We propose a scaling theory for the many-body localization (MBL) phase transition in one
dimension, building on the idea that it proceeds via a “quantum avalanche.” We argue that …

The two-dimensional XY model at the transition temperature: a high-precision Monte Carlo study

M Hasenbusch - Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and General, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the classical XY (plane rotator) model at the Kosterlitz–Thouless phase transition.
We simulate the model using the single-cluster algorithm on square lattices of a linear size …

Tensor renormalization group study of classical model on the square lattice

JF Yu, ZY **e, Y Meurice, Y Liu, A Denbleyker, H Zou… - Physical Review E, 2014 - APS
Using the tensor renormalization group method based on the higher-order singular value
decomposition, we have studied the thermodynamic properties of the continuous XY model …

Lsz in lst

O Aharony, A Giveon, D Kutasov - Nuclear physics B, 2004 - Elsevier
We discuss the analytic structure of off-shell correlation functions in Little String Theories
(LSTs) using their description as asymptotically linear dilaton backgrounds of string theory …

Finite-size scaling method for the Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless transition

YD Hsieh, YJ Kao, AW Sandvik - Journal of Statistical Mechanics …, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We test an improved finite-size scaling method for reliably extracting the critical temperature
T BKT of a Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless (BKT) transition. Using known single-parameter …

The strength of first and second order phase transitions from partition function zeroes

W Janke, R Kenna - Journal of Statistical Physics, 2001 - Springer
We present a numerical technique employing the density of partition function zeroes (i) to
distinguish between phase transitions of first and higher order,(ii) to examine the crossover …

Asymptotic freedom at the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition without fine-tuning using a qubit regularization

S Maiti, D Banerjee, S Chandrasekharan… - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
We propose a two-dimensional hard-core loop-gas model as a way to regularize the
asymptotically free massive continuum quantum field theory that emerges at the Berezinskii …

Finite size scaling for O (N) φ4-theory at the upper critical dimension

R Kenna - Nuclear Physics B, 2004 - Elsevier
A finite size scaling theory for the partition function zeroes and thermodynamic functions of O
(N) φ4-theory in four dimensions is derived from renormalization group methods. The …

Scaling theory of the Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition

Z Zuo, S Yin, X Cao, F Zhong - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
We propose a series of scaling theories for Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) phase transitions on the
basis of the hallmark exponential growth of their correlation length. Finite-size scaling, finite …
