Critical behavior of random-bond Potts models
The effect of quenched impurities on systems undergoing first-order phase transitions is studied within the framework of the q-state Potts model. For large q a mapping to the random-field Ising model explains the absence of any latent heat in 2D, and suggests that for d > 2 such systems exhib...
