Abstract

We investigate the magnetic fluctuations in a mesoscopic critical region formed at the interface due to smooth time-independent spatial variations of a control parameter around its critical value. In the proximity of the spatial critical point, the order parameter fluctuations exhibit a mesoscopic nature, characterized by their significant size compared to the lattice constant, while gradually decaying away from the critical region. To explain this phenomenon, we present a minimal model that effectively captures this behavior and demonstrates its connection to the integrable Painlevé-II equationgoverning the local order parameter. By leveraging the well-established mathematical properties of this equation, we gain valuable insights into the nonlinear susceptibilities exhibited within this region.
