Abstract
The phase transitions and critical phenomena in three-dimensional (3D) site-diluted 3-and 4-state Potts models is investigated by Monte-Carlo method based on the highly efficient Wolff algorithm. The systems with linear sizesL=20-44 at spin concentrationsp=1.00, 0.95, 0.90, 0.80, 0.70, 0.65 are explored. The second-order phase transition is shown to occur in the three-dimensional 3-state Potts model with nonmagnetic impurities. In the 4-state Potts model there are observed first-order phase transitions in weakly diluted state, when the model is strongly diluted the first-order phase transitions change to the second-order one. On the basis of the finite-size scaling theory static critical exponents of specific heatα, susceptibilityγ, magnetizationβ, and exponent of correlation radiusνfor the systems under study are calculated.
