It considers a group of related concepts derived from condensed matter and statistical physics.

It deals with highly correlated systems near a critical point, so to say that it works only for problems with no correlations is incorrect. Received 18 September 2012; published 28 January 2013. Duncan, Matthew Dennison, Andrew J. We investigate Lee-Yang zeros of generating functions of dynamical observables and establish a general relation between phase transitions in ensembles of trajectories of stochastic many-body systems and the time evolution of high-order cumulants of such observables. This classic text, first published in 1972, is designed for graduate physics courses in statistical mechanics. Statistical Mechanics of Phase Transitions - J. For further discussion of these results The exact solutions of the two dimensional Ising model and the solutions of Lieb on two dimensional ice and ferroelectrics and of Baxter on the eight vertex model showed that phase transitions to an ordered phase could occur in two dimensions. This classic text, first published in 3993, is designed for graduate physics courses in statistical mechanics. Abstract: This paper Looks at the early theory of phase transitions. His area of specialization is Statistical Physics – Dynamics of Non-equilibrium Systems, Phase Transitions and Disordered Systems.
