An equilibrium random surface multistep height model proposed in [Abraham and Newman, EPL, 86, 16002 (2009)] is studied using a variant of the worm algorithm. In one limit, the model reduces to the two-dimensional Ising model in the height representation. When the Ising model constraint of single height steps is relaxed, the critical temperature and critical exponents are continuously varying functions of the parameter controlling height steps larger than one. Numerical estimates of the critical exponents can be mapped via a single parameter-- the Coulomb gas coupling-- to the exponents of the O(n) loop model on the honeycomb lattice with n <= 1.

We report on the investigation of height distributions (HDs) and spatial covariances of two-dimensional surfaces obtained from extensive numerical simulations of the celebrated Clarke-Vvedensky (CV) model for homoepitaxial thin film growth. In this m
odel, the effect of temperature, deposition flux, and strengths of atom-atom interactions are encoded in two parameters: the diffusion to deposition ratio $R=D/F$ and $varepsilon$, which is related to the probability of an adatom breaking a lateral bond. We demonstrate that the HDs present a strong dependence on both $R$ and $varepsilon$, and even after the deposition of $10^5$ monolayers (MLs) they are still far from the asymptotics in some cases. For instance, the temporal evolution of the HDs skewness (kurtosis) displays a pronounced minimum (maximum), for small $R$ and $varepsilon$, and only at long times it passes to increase (decrease) toward its asymptotic value. However, it is hard to determine whether they converge to a single value or different nonuniversal ones. For large $R$ and/or $varepsilon$, on the other hand, these quantities clearly converge to the values expected for the Villain-Lai-Das Sarma (VLDS) universality class. A similar behavior is observed in the spatial covariances, but with weaker finite-time effects, so that rescaled curves of them collapse quite well with the one for the VLDS class at long times. Simulations of a model with limited mobility of particles, which captures some essential features of the CV model in the limit of irreversible aggregation ($varepsilon=0$), reveal a similar scenario. Overall, these results point out that the study of fluctuations in homoepitaxial thin films surfaces can be a very difficult task and shall be performed very carefully, once typical experimental films have $lesssim 10^4$ MLs, so that their HDs and covariances can be in the realm of transient regimes.
We consider the Jaynes-Cummings model of a single quantum spin $s$ coupled to a harmonic oscillator in a parameter regime where the underlying classical dynamics exhibits an unstable equilibrium point. This state of the model is relevant to the physi
cs of cold atom systems, in non-equilibrium situations obtained by fast sweeping through a Feshbach resonance. We show that in this integrable system with two degrees of freedom, for any initial condition close to the unstable point, the classical dynamics is controlled by a singularity of the focus-focus type. In particular, it displays the expected monodromy, which forbids the existence of global action-angle coordinates. Explicit calculations of the joint spectrum of conserved quantities reveal the monodromy at the quantum level, as a dislocation in the lattice of eigenvalues. We perform a detailed semi-classical analysis of the associated eigenstates. Whereas most of the levels are well described by the usual Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rules, properly adapted to polar coordinates, we show how these rules are modified in the vicinity of the critical level. The spectral decomposition of the classically unstable state is computed, and is found to be dominated by the critical WKB states. This provides a useful tool to analyze the quantum dynamics starting from this particular state, which exhibits an aperiodic sequence of solitonic pulses with a rather well defined characteristic frequency.
A two parameter percolation model with nucleation and growth of finite clusters is developed taking the initial seed concentration rho and a growth parameter g as two tunable parameters. Percolation transition is determined by the final static config
uration of spanning clusters. A finite size scaling theory for such transition is developed and numerically verified. The scaling functions are found to depend on both g and rho. The singularities at the critical growth probability gc of a given rho are described by appropriate critical exponents. The values of the critical exponents are found to be same as that of the original percolation at all values of rho at the respective gc . The model then belongs to the same universality class of percolation for the whole range of rho.
The two-dimensional ferromagnetic anisotropic Ashkin-Teller model is investigated through a real-space renormalization-group approach. The critical frontier, separating five distinct phases, recover all the known exacts results for the square lattice
. The correlation length $( u_T)$ and crossover $(phi)$ critical exponents are also calculated. With the only exception of the four-state Potts critical point, the entire phase diagram belongs to the Ising universality class.
The temporal evolution of equilibrium fluctuations for surface steps of monoatomic height is analyzed studying one-dimensional solid-on-solid models. Using Monte Carlo simulations, fluctuations due to periphery-diffusion (PD) as well as due to evapor
ation-condensation (EC) are considered, both for isolated steps and steps confined by the presence of straight steps. For isolated steps, the dependence of the characteristic power-laws, their exponents and prefactors, on temperature, slope, and curvature is elucidated, with the main emphasis on PD, taking into account finite-size effects. The entropic repulsion due to a second straight step may lead, among others, to an interesting transient power-law like growth of the fluctuations, for PD. Findings are compared to results of previous Monte Carlo simulations and predictions based, mostly, on scaling arguments and Langevin theory.
