• Inverse melting and inverse freezing in a three-state spin-glass model with finite connectivity 

      Erichsen Junior, Rubem; Theumann, Walter Karl; Magalhaes, Sergio Garcia (2013) [Artigo de periódico]
      The phase diagrams of the three-state Ghatak-Sherrington spin-glass (or random Blume-Capel) model are obtained in mean-field theory with replica symmetry in order to study the effects of a ferromagnetic bias and finite ...
    • Kosterlitz-Thouless and Potts transitions in a generalized XY model 

      Canova, Gabriel Antônio; Levin, Yan; Arenzon, Jeferson Jacob (2014) [Artigo de periódico]
      We present extensive numerical simulations of a generalized XY model with nematic-like terms recently proposed by Poderoso et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 067202 (2011)]. Using finite size scaling and focusing on the q = 3 ...
    • Nature of insulating state in the three-band hubbard model : a tight-binding approach 

      Beatrici, Anderson; Gusmao, Miguel Angelo Cavalheiro (1995) [Artigo de periódico]
      We study the three-band Hubbard model, commonly used to describe the copper-oxygen planes of high-Tc superconductors, from the point of view of electronic properties. Utilizing perturbation theory around the atomic limit ...
    • Slicing the three-dimensional Ising model : critical equilibrium and coarsening dynamics 

      Arenzon, Jeferson Jacob; Cugliandolo, Leticia F.; Picco, Marco (2015) [Artigo de periódico]
      We study the evolution of spin clusters on two-dimensional slices of the three-dimensional Ising model in contact with a heat bath after a sudden quench to a subcritical temperature. We analyze the evolution of some simple ...
    • Spin-glass freezing in Kondo-lattice compounds 

      Theumann, Alba Graciela Rivas de; Coqblin, Bernard; Magalhaes, Sergio Garcia; Schmidt, Alex Andre (2001) [Artigo de periódico]
      A theory is presented that describes a spin-glass phase at finite temperatures in Kondo-lattice systems with an additional Ruderman–Kittel–Kasuya–Yosida interaction represented by long range, random couplings among localized ...
