A percolation system with extremely long range connections and node dilution
We study the very long-range bond-percolation problem on a linear chain with
both sites and bonds dilution. Very long range means that the probability
for a connection between two occupied sites at a distance
decays as a power law, i.e. when , and
when . Site dilution means that the occupancy probability of a site
is . The behavior of this model results from the competition
between long-range connectivity, which enhances the percolation, and site
dilution, which weakens percolation. The case with is
well-known, being the exactly solvable mean-field model. The percolation order
parameter is investigated numerically for different values of
, and . We show that in the ranges
and the percolation order parameter depends only on
the average connectivity of sites, which can be explicitly computed in
terms of the three parameters , and
Anisotropic Lifshitz Point at
We present the critical exponents , and
for an -axial Lifshitz point at second order in an expansion.
We introduced a constraint involving the loop momenta along the -dimensional
subspace in order to perform two- and three-loop integrals. The results are
valid in the range . The case corresponds to the usual
Ising-like critical behavior.Comment: 10 pages, Revte

Numerical simulations of two dimensional magnetic domain patterns
I show that a model for the interaction of magnetic domains that includes a
short range ferromagnetic and a long range dipolar anti-ferromagnetic
interaction reproduces very well many characteristic features of
two-dimensional magnetic domain patterns. In particular bubble and stripe
phases are obtained, along with polygonal and labyrinthine morphologies. In
addition, two puzzling phenomena, namely the so called `memory effect' and the
`topological melting' observed experimentally are also qualitatively described.
Very similar phenomenology is found in the case in which the model is changed
to be represented by the Swift-Hohenberg equation driven by an external
orienting field.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures. Version to appear in Phys. Rev.
