Computer simulations of critical statistical systems or quantum field theory models are performed with systems where sizes are finite. In transfer matrix calculations, all sizes but one are also finite. In systems where the correlation length is large, it is thus important to understand how the infinite size limit is reached. This problem is investigated in Chapter 19. RG equations allow proving the properties of universality and of finite size scaling. When the correlation length is larger than the linear system size, a phenomenon of dimensional reduction is observed. With periodic boundary conditions, fields have a zero mode. A local expansion generates an effective field theory for the zero mode.

In this work I present a numerical study of the Finite Size Scaling (FSS) of a correlation length in the framework of the CPN-1 model by means of the 1/N expansion. This study has been thought as preparatory to the application of FSS to the measure on the lattice of a new coupling constant fx(1/R), defined in terms or rectangular Wilson loops. I give also a perturbative expansion of fx(1/R) in powers of the corresponding coupling constant in the [Formula: see text] scheme together with some preliminary numerical results obtained from the Polyakov ratio and I point out the conceptual problems that limit this approach.

This chapter describes the progress made during the past three decades in the finite size scaling analysis of the critical phenomena of the Anderson transition. The scaling theory of localization and the Anderson model of localization are briefly sketched. The finite size scaling method is described. Recent results for the critical exponents of the different symmetry classes are summarised. The importance of corrections to scaling are emphasised. A comparison with experiment is made, and a direction for future work is suggested.
