Abstract
Abstract The thermodynamic properties and phase transitions in the two-dimensional weakly diluted Potts model with the number of spin states q=4 were studied by the Monte Carlo method. Systems with linear dimensions L×L = N, L=10–160 are considered. Using the fourth order Binder cumulant method, critical temperatures were calculated for spin systems with a spin concentration p=1.0 and 0.90. Critical indices are calculated on the basis of the theory of finite-size scaling. The universality of the critical behavior of two-dimensional disordered systems is discussed.
