AbstractRoughening of interfaces implies the divergence of the interface width w with the system size L. For two-dimensional systems the divergence of $$w^2$$ w 2 is linear in L. In the framework of a detailed capillary wave approximation and of statistical field theory we derive an expression for the asymptotic behaviour of $$w^2$$ w 2 , which differs from results in the literature. It is confirmed by Monte Carlo simulations.

We study a variational formulation of the Luttinger-liquid concept in two dimensions. We show that a Luttinger-liquid wavefunction with an algebraic singularity at the Fermiedge is given by a Jastrow-Gutzwiller type wavefunction, which we evaluate by variational Monte Carlo for lattices with up to 38 × 38 = 1444 sites. We therefore find that, from a variational point of view, the concept of a Luttinger liquid is well defined even in 2D. We also find that the Luttinger liquid state is energetically favoured by the projected kinetic energy in the context of the 2D t-J model. We study and find coexistence of d-wave superconductivity and Luttinger-liquid behaviour in two-dimensional projected wavefunctions. We then argue that generally, any two-dimensional d-wave superconductor should be unstable against Luttinger-liquid type correlations along the (quasi-1D) nodes of the d-wave order parameter, at temperatures small compared to the gap.

We investigate the phase diagram of electrons in two dimensions at T = 0 by means of accurate diffusion Monte Carlo simulations within the fixed-node approximation. At variance with previous studies, we find that in an isolated layer Slater-Jastrow nodes yield stability of the fully polarised fluid at intermediate coupling, before freezing into a triangular crystal sets in. We have also studied coupled layers of electrons and of electrons and holes. Preliminary results show that at large coupling, as two layers are brought together from infinity, inter-layer correlation first stabilises the crystalline phase at distances of the order of the in-plane inter-particle spacing. As the distance is further decreased the effect of correlation, as expected, turns into an enhanced screening, which disrupts the crystalline order in favour of liquid phases.

The kinetics of grain growth in real systems is influenced by several unknown factors, making a theoretical treatment very difficult. Idealized grain growth, assuming all grain boundaries to have the same energy and mobility (mobility M = k/ρ, where k is a constant and ρ is grain boundary curvature) can be treated theoretically, but the results obtained can only be compared to numerical grain growth simulations, as ideal grain growth scarcely exists in nature. The validity of the simulation techniques thus becomes of great importance. In the present investigation computer simulations of grain growth in two dimensions using Monte Carlo simulations and the grain boundary tracking technique have been investigated and compared in small grain systems, making it possible to follow the evolution of each grain in the system.

The percolation phenomena on two-dimensional square lattice is considered. The quotient χ of connectivity length ξ> above percolation threshold pc and ξ< below pc at the same small distance Δp is discussed. The results of two different algorithms and programs and agreement with theoretical/mathematical predications is presented, in contrast to previous contradictory Monte Carlo simulation results.

The possibility of unusual leading logarithmic corrections to the asymptotic behavior of the percolation connectedness length ξ in two dimensions is explored through a finite-size transfer-matrix analysis on strips of widths L≤12. It is found that, for both square-site and triangular-site percolation problems, no such corrections arise and the accepted exact value of the critical exponent ν is recovered.

We present a dynamic Monte Carlo study of the spin-1/2 quantum XY model in two-dimensions at the Kosterlitz–Thouless phase transition temperature. The short-time dynamic scaling behaviour is found and the dynamical exponents θ, z and the static exponent η are determined.

We study four-point functions of critical percolation in two dimensions, and more generally of the Potts model. We propose an exact ansatz for the spectrum: an infinite, discrete and non-diagonal combination of representations of the Virasoro algebra. Based on this ansatz, we compute four-point functions using a numerical conformal bootstrap approach. The results agree with Monte-Carlo computations of connectivities of random clusters.
