Phase Transitions and Critical Phenomena!
First 2 questions are not mathematical questions.So if there is someone who knows about what I am talking about i would be glad to hear what critical phenomena is about, i know i can use google for it and i actually did. But they are not really useful since they use "Encyclopedia Language"...
1. Homework Statement
(a) What is a renormalization-group transformation?
(b) What is the physical significance of a renormalization-group fixed point?
(c) Starting from the relation T’ – TC = λ (T – TC) near the fixed point at TC, derive the
correlation length critical exponent ν occurring in ξ = ξ0 |T-TC| - ν. The length
rescaling factor b of the renormalization-group transformation will occur in your
answer.
2. Homework Equations
relevant equations are give in (c)
3. The Attempt at a Solution
