Monte Carlo investigation of the phase transition in the 2D Potts model with open boundary conditions

Johansson, Jonas LU orcid (2008) In Physics Letters. Section A: General, Atomic and Solid State Physics 372(42). p.6301-6304
Abstract
Finite size effects on the phase transition in the 2D Potts model with open boundary conditions are studied with Wang-Landau Monte Carlo simulations. We show the lattice size dependent cross-over from first order to continuous phase transition and discuss it in terms of surface induced disorder and size dependence of the latent heat.
