On the discontinuity of the specific heat of the Ising model on a scale-free network

We consider the Ising model on an annealed scale-free network with node-degree distribution characterized by a power-law decay P(K)∼ K^{-λ}. It is well established that the model is characterized by classical mean-field exponents for λ > 5. In this note we show that the specific-heat discontinuit...
