Novel phase transition in two-dimensional xy-models with long-range interaction

The purpose of this article is to give an overview of results concerning ordering and critical properties of two-dimensional ferromagnets including the dipolar interaction. We investigate a two-dimensional xy-model extended by the dipolar interaction. Describing our system by a nonlinear σ-model and...
