Twelve-Dimensional Supersymmetric Gauge Theory as the Large N Limit
Starting with the ordinary ten-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory
for the gauge group U(N), we obtain a twelve-dimensional supersymmetric gauge
theory as the large N limit. The two symplectic canonical coordinates
parametrizing the unitary N X N matrices for U(N) are identified with the extra
coordinates in twelve dimensions in the limit. Applying further a
strong/weak duality, we get the `decompactified' twelve-dimensional theory. The
resulting twelve-dimensional theory has peculiar gauge symmetry which is
compatible also with supersymmetry. We also establish a corresponding new
superspace formulation with the extra coordinates. By performing a dimensional
reduction from twelve dimensions directly into three dimensions, we see that
the Poisson bracket terms which are needed for identification with
supermembrane action arises naturally. This result indicates an universal
duality mechanism that the 't Hooft limit of an arbitrary supersymmetric theory
promotes the original supersymmetric theory in (D-1,1) dimensions into a theory
in (D,2) dimensions with an additional pair of space-time coordinates. This
also indicates interesting dualities between supermembrane theory, type IIA
superstring with D0-branes, and the recently-discovered twelve-dimensional
supersymmetric theories.Comment: 14 pages, latex, no figure
Phase Diagram of a 2D Vertex Model
Phase diagram of a symmetric vertex model which allows 7 vertex
configurations is obtained by use of the corner transfer matrix renormalization
group (CTMRG), which is a variant of the density matrix renormalization group
(DMRG). The critical indices of this model are identified as and

Numerical Latent Heat Observation of the q=5 Potts Model
Site energy of the five-state ferromagnetic Potts model is numerically
calculated at the first-order transition temperature using corner transfer
matrix renormalization group (CTMRG) method. The calculated energy of the
disordered phase is clearly different from that of the ordered phase
. The obtained latent heat is 0.027, which
quantitatively agrees with the exact solution.Comment: 2 pages, Latex(JPSJ style files are included), 2 ps figures,

The Density Matrix Renormalization Group technique with periodic boundary conditions
The Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) method with periodic boundary
conditions is introduced for two dimensional classical spin models. It is shown
that this method is more suitable for derivation of the properties of infinite
2D systems than the DMRG with open boundary conditions despite the latter
describes much better strips of finite width. For calculation at criticality,
phenomenological renormalization at finite strips is used together with a
criterion for optimum strip width for a given order of approximation. For this
width the critical temperature of 2D Ising model is estimated with seven-digit
accuracy for not too large order of approximation. Similar precision is reached
for critical indices. These results exceed the accuracy of similar calculations
for DMRG with open boundary conditions by several orders of magnitude.Comment: REVTeX format contains 8 pages and 6 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.
Stochastic Light-Cone CTMRG: a new DMRG approach to stochastic models
We develop a new variant of the recently introduced stochastic
transfer-matrix DMRG which we call stochastic light-cone corner-transfer-matrix
DMRG (LCTMRG). It is a numerical method to compute dynamic properties of
one-dimensional stochastic processes. As suggested by its name, the LCTMRG is a
modification of the corner-transfer-matrix DMRG (CTMRG), adjusted by an
additional causality argument. As an example, two reaction-diffusion models,
the diffusion-annihilation process and the branch-fusion process, are studied
and compared to exact data and Monte-Carlo simulations to estimate the
capability and accuracy of the new method. The number of possible Trotter steps
of more than 10^5 shows a considerable improvement to the old stochastic TMRG
algorithm.Comment: 15 pages, uses IOP styl
Snapshot Observation for 2D Classical Lattice Models by Corner Transfer Matrix Renormalization Group
We report a way of obtaining a spin configuration snapshot, which is one of
the representative spin configurations in canonical ensemble, in a finite area
of infinite size two-dimensional (2D) classical lattice models. The corner
transfer matrix renormalization group (CTMRG), a variant of the density matrix
renormalization group (DMRG), is used for the numerical calculation. The matrix
product structure of the variational state in CTMRG makes it possible to
stochastically fix spins each by each according to the conditional probability
with respect to its environment.Comment: 4 pages, 8figure
Incommensurate structures studied by a modified Density Matrix Renormalization Group Method
A modified density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method is introduced
and applied to classical two-dimensional models: the anisotropic triangular
nearest- neighbor Ising (ATNNI) model and the anisotropic triangular
next-nearest-neighbor Ising (ANNNI) model. Phase diagrams of both models have
complex structures and exhibit incommensurate phases. It was found that the
incommensurate phase completely separates the disordered phase from one of the
commensurate phases, i. e. the non-existence of the Lifshitz point in phase
diagrams of both models was confirmed.Comment: 14 pages, 14 figures included in text, LaTeX2e, submitted to PRB,

Critical Point of a Symmetric Vertex Model
We study a symmetric vertex model, that allows 10 vertex configurations, by
use of the corner transfer matrix renormalization group (CTMRG), a variant of
DMRG. The model has a critical point that belongs to the Ising universality
class.Comment: 2 pages, 6 figures, short not
