Abstract
The limit distribution of the layer block spin variables of the mean spherical model under Neumann–Dirichlet boundary conditions is investigated in the presence of an inhomogeneous external field which changes sign at distance Lx (0⩽ x⩽1) from the Neumann boundary. The behaviour of the equation of state is studied in different temperature and field regimes: high-temperature bulk limit, critical finite-size scaling regime, and low-temperature moderate-field regime. A new classes of critical behaviour for the characteristic function of the limit distributions are obtained and studied in the three different regimes.
