Multiple Potts Models Coupled to Two-Dimensional Quantum Gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
We perform Monte Carlo simulations using the Wolff cluster algorithm of multiple q = 2, 3, 4 state Potts models on dynamical phi-cubed graphs of spherical topology in order to investigate the c > 1 region of two-dimensional quantum gravity. Contrary to naive expectation we find no obvious signs of pathological behaviour for c > 1. We discuss the results in the light of suggestions that have been made for a modified DDK ansatz for c > 1.

The XY Model Coupled to Two-Dimensional Quantum Gravity
We perform Monte Carlo simulations using the Wolff cluster algorithm of the XY model on both fixed and dynamical phi-cubed graphs (i.e. without and with coupling to two-dimensional quantum gravity). We compare the numerical results with the theoretical expectation that the phase transition remains of KT type when the XY model is coupled to gravity. We also examine whether the universality we di...
متن کاملShaken, but not stirred – Potts model coupled to quantum gravity
We investigate the critical behaviour of both matter and geometry of the threestate Potts model coupled to two-dimensional Lorentzian quantum gravity in the framework of causal dynamical triangulations. Contrary to what general arguments on the effects of disorder suggest, we find strong numerical evidence that the critical exponents of the matter are not changed under the influence of quantum ...
متن کاملQuantum geometry of 2 d gravity coupled to unitary matter
We show that there exists a divergent correlation length in 2d quantum gravity for the matter fields close to the critical point provided one uses the invariant geodesic distance as the measure of distance. The corresponding reparameterization invariant two-point functions satisfy all scaling relations known from the ordinary theory of critical phenomena and the KPZ exponents are determined by ...
متن کاملGeometric and stochastic clusters of gravitating Potts models
We consider the fractal dimensions of critical clusters occurring in configurations of a q-state Potts model coupled to the planar random graphs of the dynamical triangulations approach to Euclidean quantum gravity in two dimensions. For regular lattices, it is well-established that at criticality the properties of Fortuin–Kasteleyn clusters are directly related to the conventional critical exp...
متن کاملInformation Geometry, One, Two, Three (and Four) *
Although the notion of entropy lies at the core of statistical mechanics, it is not often used in statistical mechanical models to characterize phase transitions, a role more usually played by quantities such as various order parameters, specific heats or susceptibilities. The relative entropy induces a metric, the so-called information or Fisher-Rao metric, on the space of parameters and the g...
