Smooth Random Surfaces from Tight Immersions?
We investigate actions for dynamically triangulated random surfaces that
consist of a gaussian or area term plus the {\it modulus} of the gaussian
curvature and compare their behavior with both gaussian plus extrinsic
curvature and ``Steiner'' actions.Comment: 7 page
An Effective Model for Crumpling in Two Dimensions?
We investigate the crumpling transition for a dynamically triangulated random
surface embedded in two dimensions using an effective model in which the
disordering effect of the variables on the correlations of the normals is
replaced by a long-range ``antiferromagnetic'' term. We compare the results
from a Monte Carlo simulation with those obtained for the standard action which
retains the 's and discuss the nature of the phase transition.Comment: 5 page
The Inclusive Semileptonic Decay Lepton Spectrum from
In this talk, we review the QCD calculation of the lepton spectrum from
inclusive semileptonic decay. We compare this prediction to that of the
ACCMM model. This latter work was done in collaboration with Csaba Csaki.Comment: MIT-CTP-2333, uses LATEX. Invited Talk, Presented at WHEPP-3 Workshop

Cluster variation - Pade` approximants method for the simple cubic Ising model
The cluster variation - Pade` approximant method is a recently proposed tool,
based on the extrapolation of low/high temperature results obtained with the
cluster variation method, for the determination of critical parameters in
Ising-like models. Here the method is applied to the three-dimensional simple
cubic Ising model, and new results, obtained with an 18-site basic cluster, are
reported. Other techniques for extracting non-classical critical exponents are
also applied and their results compared with those by the cluster variation -
Pade` approximant method.Comment: 8 RevTeX pages, 3 PostScript figure
Grand-Canonical Ensemble of Random Surfaces with Four Species of Ising Spins
The grand-canonical ensemble of dynamically triangulated surfaces coupled to
four species of Ising spins (c=2) is simulated on a computer. The effective
string susceptibility exponent for lattices with up to 1000 vertices is found
to be . A specific scenario for models is
conjectured.Comment: LaTeX, 11 pages + 1 postscript figure appended, preprint LPTHE-Orsay

Dynamic Critical Behavior of the Swendsen-Wang Algorithm: The Two-Dimensional 3-State Potts Model Revisited
We have performed a high-precision Monte Carlo study of the dynamic critical
behavior of the Swendsen-Wang algorithm for the two-dimensional 3-state Potts
model. We find that the Li-Sokal bound ()
is almost but not quite sharp. The ratio seems to diverge
either as a small power () or as a logarithm.Comment: 35 pages including 3 figures. Self-unpacking file containing the
LaTeX file, the needed macros (epsf.sty, indent.sty, subeqnarray.sty, and
eqsection.sty) and the 3 Postscript figures. Revised version fixes a
normalization error in \xi (with many thanks to Wolfhard Janke for finding
the error!). To be published in J. Stat. Phys. 87, no. 1/2 (April 1997
