Nonmonotonical crossover of the effective susceptibility exponent

1997

We have numerically determined the behavior of the magnetic susceptibility upon approach of the critical point in two-dimensional spin systems with an interaction range that was varied over nearly two orders of magnitude. The full crossover from classical to Ising-like critical behavior, spanning several decades in the reduced temperature, could be observed. Our results convincingly show that the effective susceptibility exponent gamma_eff changes nonmonotonically from its classical to its Ising value when approaching the critical point in the ordered phase. In the disordered phase the behavior is monotonic. Furthermore the hypothesis that the crossover function is universal is supported.

Dynamics of the rotational degrees of freedom in a supercooled liquid of diatomic molecules

1997

Using molecular dynamics computer simulations, we investigate the dynamics of the rotational degrees of freedom in a supercooled system composed of rigid, diatomic molecules. The interaction between the molecules is given by the sum of interaction-site potentials of the Lennard-Jones type. In agreement with mode-coupling theory (MCT), we find that the relaxation times of the orientational time correlation functions C_1^(s), C_2^(s) and C_1 show at low temperatures a power-law with the same critical temperature T_c, and which is also identical to the critical temperature for the translational degrees of freedom. In contrast to MCT we find, however, that for these correlators the time-tempera…

Linear inverse filtering improves spatial separation of nonlinear brain dynamics: a simulation study.

2000

We examined topographic variations in nonlinear measures based on scalp voltages, which were generated by two simulated current dipoles each placed in a different hemisphere of a spherical volume conductor (three-shell model). Dipole dynamics were that of a three-torus and the x-component of the Lorenz-system and scalp voltage were calculated for a configuration of 29 electrode positions. Although estimates for correlation dimension D2 and Lyapunov exponent L1 were close to the theoretical values for the original time series, the simulated scalp voltage data showed almost no topographic resolution of dipole positions. In order to enhance topographic differentiation, we constructed linear in…

Monte Carlo simulation of dimensional crossover in the XY model.

1993

We report Monte Carlo simulations of Villain's periodic Gaussian XY model on ${\mathit{L}}^{2}$\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}N lattices of film geometry (L\ensuremath{\gg}N) with up to N=16 layers, employing the single-cluster update algorithm combined with improved estimators for measurements. The boundary conditions are periodic within each layer and free at the bottom and top layer. Based on data for the specific heat, the spin-spin correlation function, and the susceptibility in the high-temperature phase we study the crossover from three- to two-dimensional behavior as criticality is approached. For the transition temperatures, determined from Kosterlitz-Thouless fits to the correl…

Critical Attractor and Universality in a Renormalization Scheme for Three Frequency Hamiltonian Systems

1998

We study an approximate renormalization-group transformation to analyze the breakup of invariant tori for three degrees of freedom Hamiltonian systems. The scheme is implemented for the spiral mean torus. We find numerically that the critical surface is the stable manifold of a critical nonperiodic attractor. We compute scaling exponents associated with this fixed set, and find that they can be expected to be universal.

Single-cluster Monte Carlo study of the Ising model on two-dimensional random lattices.

1994

We use the single-cluster Monte Carlo update algorithm to simulate the Ising model on two-dimensional Poissonian random lattices with up to 80,000 sites which are linked together according to the Voronoi/Delaunay prescription. In one set of simulations we use reweighting techniques and finite-size scaling analysis to investigate the critical properties of the model in the very vicinity of the phase transition. In the other set of simulations we study the approach to criticality in the disordered phase, making use of improved estimators for measurements. From both sets of simulations we obtain clear evidence that the critical exponents agree with the exactly known exponents for regular latti…

Application of the Monte Carlo coherent-anomaly method to two-dimensional lattice-gas systems with further-neighbor interactions

1990

A Monte Carlo version of the coherent-anomaly method has been used to determine critical properties of a two-dimensional Ising ferromagnet with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions and of a series of two-dimensional lattice-gas systems of particles interacting via 6-12 Lennard-Jones potential. It has demonstrated that the method leads to quite accurate determination of critical temperature but is less successful when used to determine the values of critical exponents \ensuremath{\gamma} and \ensuremath{\nu}.

Ising Spins on 3D Random Lattices

1999

We perform single-cluster Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model on three-dimensional Poissonian random lattices of Voronoi/Delaunay type with up to 128 000 sites. For each lattice size quenched averages are computed over 96 realizations. From a finite-size scaling analysis we obtain strong evidence that the critical exponents coincide with those on regular cubic lattices.

Highly Correlated Fermi Liquid in Heavy-Fermion Metals: The Scaling Behavior

2014

In this chapter we show how the FCQPT theory works. We do that on the base of experimentally relevant examples. Namely, as noted in the Introduction (Chap. 1), the challenge for the theories is to explain the scaling behavior of the normalized effective mass \(M^*_N(y)\) displayed in Fig. 1.3. The theories analyzing only the critical exponents characterizing \(M^*_N(y)\) at \(y\gg 1\) consider only a part of the problem. In this section we analyze and derive the scaling behavior of the normalized effective mass near QCP as reported in Fig. 1.3. We start with describing magnetic field dependence of the quasiparticle effective mass in Sect. 6.1. Quasiparticle damping and the temperature depen…

Rich dynamics and anticontrol of extinction in a prey-predator system

2019

This paper reveals some new and rich dynamics of a two-dimensional prey-predator system and to anticontrol the extinction of one of the species. For a particular value of the bifurcation parameter, one of the system variable dynamics is going to extinct, while another remains chaotic. To prevent the extinction, a simple anticontrol algorithm is applied so that the system orbits can escape from the vanishing trap. As the bifurcation parameter increases, the system presents quasiperiodic, stable, chaotic and also hyperchaotic orbits. Some of the chaotic attractors are Kaplan-Yorke type, in the sense that the sum of its Lyapunov exponents is positive. Also, atypically for undriven discrete sys…
