We consider layered distributions of aperiodic exchange interactions, according to a class of two-letter substitutional sequences. For irrelevant geometric fluctuations, the recursion relations in parameter space display a nontrivial uniform fixed point of hyperbolic character that governs the universal critical behavior. For relevant fluctuations, in agreement with previous work, this fixed point becomes fully unstable, and there appears a two-cycle attractor associated with a new critical universality class.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-05-02T21:14:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "ising model", "field behavior", "aperiodic interactions", "derive exact renormalization-group recursion relations", "nontrivial uniform fixed point" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
