A singularity on the negative-fugacity axis of the hard-core lattice gas is investigated in terms of numerical diagonalization of large-scale transfer matrices. For the hard-square lattice gas, the location of the singular point [Formula: see text] and the critical exponent ν are accurately determined by the phenomenological renormalization technique as -0.11933888188(1) and 0.416667(1), respectively. It is also found that the central charge c and the dominant scaling dimension xσ are -4.399996(8) and -0.3999996(7), respectively. Similar analyses for other hard-core lattice-gas models in two dimensions are also performed, and it is confirmed that the universality between these models does hold. These results strongly indicate that the present singularity belongs to the same universality class as the Yang–Lee edge singularity.

The paper is concerned with aperiodic linearly repetitive tilings. For such tilings, we establish a weak form of self-similarity that allows us to prove general (sub)additive ergodic theorems. Finally, we provide applications to the study of lattice gas models.

ABSTRACTDetailed analyses of non-equilibrium lattice-gas models of island nucleation and growth during film deposition (or etching) have been invaluable in elucidating basic issues in nucleation theory, deviations from mean-field predictions, and experimental observations. Particularly interesting and useful is the behavior of spatial correlations in the adlayer which develop during island (or pit) formation. In particular, a strong depletion in the population of island pairs at separations smaller than the average follows from depletion in the density of diffusing adspecies near islands. This feature delays percolation of clusters of coalesced islands. Another recently discovered and more subtle feature is a strong correlation between the width of the island-free region surrounding an island and the size and growth rate of that island. This direct correlation between island sizes and separations controls the shape of the island size distribution. If incorporated into rate-equation descriptions, it recovers the exact form of the scaling function for the island size distribution.
