Crossover and universality breaking in the dilute Baxter-Wu model (opens in new tab)

The critical behavior of the Baxter-Wu model belongs to the universality class of the four-state Potts model. While the introduction of annealed vacancies does not alter the criticality of the four-state Potts model, the dilute Baxter-Wu model has remained the subject of several competing scenarios. Here we investigate the phase diagram of the spin-$1$ Baxter-Wu model in the presence of a crystal field using transfer-matrix calculations and larg...
