Internal Energy of the Potts model on the Triangular Lattice with Two- and Three-body Interactions
We calculate the internal energy of the Potts model on the triangular lattice
with two- and three-body interactions at the transition point satisfying
certain conditions for coupling constants. The method is a duality
transformation. Therefore we have to make assumptions on uniqueness of the
transition point and that the transition is of second order. These assumptions
have been verified to hold by numerical simulations for q=2, 3 and 4, and our
results for the internal energy are expected to be exact in these cases.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Multicritical Points of Potts Spin Glasses on the Triangular Lattice
We predict the locations of several multicritical points of the Potts spin
glass model on the triangular lattice. In particular, continuous multicritical
lines, which consist of multicritical points, are obtained for two types of
two-state Potts (i.e., Ising) spin glasses with two- and three-body
interactions on the triangular lattice. These results provide us with numerous
examples to further verify the validity of the conjecture, which has succeeded
in deriving highly precise locations of multicritical points for several spin
glass models. The technique, called the direct triangular duality, a variant of
the ordinary duality transformation, directly relates the triangular lattice
with its dual triangular lattice in conjunction with the replica method.Comment: 18 pages, 2, figure
