Abstract
The phase diagram of the two-dimensional, three-state chiral Potts or asymmetric clock model is studied using Monte Carlo techniques. The phase boundaries are compared to those obtained using the finite-size renormalization group and the free fermion approximation. The incommensurate phase is described in detail and crossover effects near the Lifshitz point are discussed.
