ON THE DYNAMICS OF THE ASHKIN—TELLER—POTTS MODEL S. TRIMPER Sckfion Physik, Karl-Marx-Universitat, Leipzig, DDR Received 14 July 1976 The dynamical critical exponent of the s-states Ashkin--Teller -Potts model is found with the help of the linear response theory in the c = d~— d expansion (d~= 4 and 6).

In the present letter we investigate the dynamic (critical) behaviour of a system which exhibits cubic and quartic invariants of the order parameter field p(x) in the effective Hamiltonian. Such a case is realized in the continuum version of the s-states Ashkin--Teller—Potts (AlP) model [I]. The static properties of the ATP model are clarified with the help of renormalization group approach [1,2] or with a parquet graph calculation [3,4] in the framework of e-expansion, e d~ d. For the restricted ATP model (without the cubic invariant) the “critical” dimension d~=4 and otherwise dc= 6. For an investigation of the dynamics near the phase transition there are no such general and closed methods like in the static case. However, a simple possibility is to start with a kinetic equation following from the theory of irreversible processes [5] ~ t) (1)

The are the bare coupling constants of the model. Let us seek the dynamic exponent z by solving eq. (1) with the help of linear response theory [6, 71. Firstly, we consider the cubic part of the interacting Hamiltonian only, because it dominates the critical behaviour for d~6. Eqs. (I) and (2) yield after including an external field h; 3(s—l)3/~2

The full susceptibility is found in the simplest approximation by summing up all contributions coming from diagram la. Instead of the bare coupling constants had to the points renormalized ones, which are one replaced byinsert its fixed value y~(linear in e = 6—d):

nuum version of the kinetic Ising model [8], however there are different values of the constant c. The results is applicabel to the limiting cases s=0, the physical oncases i~<0, e.g. the[3],and critical for exponent gin In ofboth which is given recently s = 1. z tends toward the value of the conventional theory; for s =2, ,~= 0 and z = 2, the classical value. Let us remark, that for s = 3 the renormalized vertex part F 3 is a constant [4] and the normal scaling picture breaks down. Besides, one finds, that for 10/3 > s > 2 the static exponent of the susceptibility ~ < 1 in contradiction to the stability requirement 5 ~‘ 1. For s ~ 3 ~ is imaginary. This is a reference to a first order transition [9]. Depending on the sign of i~one obtains different be1+), haviour of the kinetic (T— T~)( = 1/2—5/4i~.
