We introduce an on-lattice minimal model of two-dimensional melting, a clock model with vacancies with control parameters temperature, chemical potential and external field. We study the full phase diagram using cluster Monte Carlo, Tensor Network Renormalisation Group and selfconsistent mean field methods. A non-universal ensemble of melting scenarios is observed including the KTHNY scenario of two Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transitions delimiting a quasilong-range ordered phase. The upper transition evolves into first-order transition in analogy with simulations on hard and soft discs and at low chemical potential there is a single transition between ordered high density and disordered low density phases. The evolution is via a special tricritical point that is accessed in detail. This work therefore provides a framework for understanding the crossover between 2D melting scenarios and offers insights into the behavior of realistic systems.
We study the phase diagram of a three-dimensional Heisenberg model with Dzyaloshinski--Moriya interaction under the presence of Potts-like anisotropy. The phase transition between the winding phase and the ferromagnetically ordered phase exhibits a critical phase transition with anomalous features such as critical expo...

This study investigates the thermal and spatiotemporal properties of a one-dimensional (1D) spin-crossover monoatomic chain using a homogeneous version of the electro-elastic model. This framework maps the original system initially defined by two degrees of freedom (atomic positions and spins) onto an effective Ising-l...

We study the phase diagram and critical properties of the $q = 3$ and $q = 8$ Potts models with spatially correlated disorder governed by a power-law decay with exponent $a$. Building on the phase diagram proposed by Chippari et al. [3], where a transition from finite-disorder to infinite-disorder fixed points was iden...
The study of phase transitions plays an important role in understanding qualitative changes in the behaviour of physical systems at criticality. Despite decades of progress, there is still a strong demand for high-precision numerical tools capable of resolving subtle critical phenomena. Motivated by this need, in this...
We study the dynamical scaling properties of the two-dimensional fully frustrated Ising model by simulated annealing. The model has a highly degenerate, critical ground state with well known equilibrium properties. To study its out-of-equilibrium behavior, we develop an annealing protocol that is convenient for extendi...
