For systems with infinite-order phase transitions, in which an order parameter smoothly becomes nonzero, a new observable for finite-size scaling analysis is suggested. By construction this new observable has the favourable property of diverging at the critical point. Focussing on the example of the F-model we compare the analysis of this observable with that of another observable, which is also derived from the order parameter but does not diverge, as well as that of the associated susceptibility. We discuss the difficulties that arise in the finite-size scaling analysis of such systems. In particular we show that one may reach incorrect conclusions from large-system size extrapolations of observables that are not known to diverge at the critical point. Our work suggests that one should base finite-size scaling analyses for infinite-order phase transitions only on observables that are guaranteed to diverge.

The critical point of a topological phase transition is described by a conformal field theory, where finite-size corrections to energy are uniquely related to its central charge. We investigate the finite-size scaling away from criticality and find a
scaling function, which discriminates between phases with different topological indexes. This function appears to be universal for all five Altland-Zirnbauer symmetry classes with non-trivial topology in one spatial dimension. We obtain an analytic form of the scaling function and compare it with numerical results.
Quantum phase transitions are usually observed in ground states of correlated systems. Remarkably, eigenstate phase transitions can also occur at finite energy density in disordered, isolated quantum systems. Such transitions fall outside the framewo
rk of statistical mechanics as they involve the breakdown of ergodicity. Here, we consider what general constraints can be imposed on the nature of eigenstate transitions due to the presence of disorder. We derive Harris-type bounds on the finite-size scaling exponents of the mean entanglement entropy and level statistics at the many-body localization phase transition using several different arguments. Our results are at odds with recent small-size numerics, for which we estimate the crossover scales beyond which the Harris bound must hold.
We consider scaling of the entanglement entropy across a topological quantum phase transition in one dimension. The change of the topology manifests itself in a sub-leading term, which scales as $L^{-1/alpha}$ with the size of the subsystem $L$, here
$alpha$ is the R{e}nyi index. This term reveals the universal scaling function $h_alpha(L/xi)$, where $xi$ is the correlation length, which is sensitive to the topological index.
The present review is devoted to the problems of finite-size scaling due to the presence of long-range interaction decaying at large distance as $1/r^{d+sigma}$, where $d$ is the spatial dimension and the long-range parameter $sigma>0$. Classical and quantum systems are considered.
We investigate a critical exponent related to synchronization transition in globally coupled nonidentical phase oscillators. The critical exponents of susceptibility, correlation time, and correlation size are significant quantities to characterize f
luctuations in coupled oscillator systems of large but finite size and understand a universal property of synchronization. These exponents have been identified for the sinusoidal coupling but not fully studied for other coupling schemes. Herein, for a general coupling function including a negative second harmonic term in addition to the sinusoidal term, we numerically estimate the critical exponent of the correlation size, denoted by $ u_+$, in a synchronized regime of the system by employing a non-conventional statistical quantity. First, we confirm that the estimated value of $ u_+$ is approximately 5/2 for the sinusoidal coupling case, which is consistent with the well-known theoretical result. Second, we show that the value of $ u_+$ increases with an increase in the strength of the second harmonic term. Our result implies that the critical exponent characterizing synchronization transition largely depends on the coupling function.
