New numerical method to study phase transitions

Jooyoung Lee, J. Michael Kosterlitz

We present a new numerical method to identify the nature of a phase transition. When combined with finite-size scaling, the method can identify unambiguously a weak first-order transition even when accessible system sizes are L/\ensuremath{\xi}0.05 as in the five-state Potts model. At a continuous transition, exponents can be determined surprisingly accurately and the computational effort required is moderate. The method is tested on the 2D Potts and 3D Ising models, but should be quite generally applicable.

Superconductor-to-normal phase transition in a vortex glass model: numerical evidence for a new percolation universality class

Frank Pfeiffer, Heiko Rieger

The three-dimensional strongly screened vortex glass model is studied numerically using methods from combinatorial optimization. We focus on the effect of disorder strength on the ground state and find the existence of a disorder-driven normal-to-superconducting phase transition. The transition turns out to be a geometrical phase transition with percolating vortex loops in the ground state configuration. We determine the critical exponents and provide evidence for a new universality class of correlated percolation.
