dc.description.abstract |
In a system of interacting thin rigid rods of equal length 2ℓ on a two-dimensional grid of lattice spacing a, we show that there are multiple phase transitions as the coupling strength κ=ℓ/a and the temperature are varied. There are essentially two classes of transitions. One corresponds to the Ising-type spontaneous symmetry-breaking transition and the second belongs to less-studied phase transitions of geometrical origin. The latter class of transitions appears at fixed values of κ irrespective of the temperature, whereas the critical coupling for the spontaneous symmetry-breaking transition depends on it. By varying the temperature, the phase boundaries may cross each other, leading to a rich phase behavior with infinitely many phases. Our results are based on Monte Carlo simulations on the square lattice and a fixed-point analysis of a functional flow equation on a Bethe lattice |
