Abstract

We show that phase transitions with a broken rotation symmetry are unstable for perturbations with long-range "irrelevant" interactions.Received 28 July 1981DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.26.1336©1982 American Physical Society

Scaling relation for dangerously irrelevant symmetry-breaking fields

Tsuyoshi Okubo, Kosei Oshikawa, Hiroshi Watanabe +1 more

We propose a scaling relation for critical phenomena in which a symmetry-breaking field is dangerously irrelevant. We confirm its validity on the six-state clock model in three and four dimensions by numerical simulation. In doing so, we point out the problem in the previously used order parameter, and present an alternative evidence based on the mass-dependent fluctuation.

Correlation-Function Inequality Obtained by Yeh

Robert B. Griffiths

An inequality on correlation functions in Heisenberg ferromagnets derived by Yeh is slightly improved, but shown to be irrelevant to the problem of phase transitions.Received 29 December 1969DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.1.3883©1970 American Physical Society
