Phase transitions and critical phenomena
Abstract
The examination of phase transitions and critical phenomena has dominated statistical physics for the latter half of this century--there is a great theoretical challenge in solving special statistical mechanical models. Additionally, beautiful experimental results have elucidated the singularities (critical behavior) that occur in phase transitions. Although a few spectacular successes in the exact solution of simple models have occurred, interesting systems have mostly proven to be intractable from the analytic perspective. Because many physically disparate systems show identical critical behavior, identifying and understanding general principles of universality and their relationship to microscopic symmetries are of fundamental importance

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
