Fractal measures and their singularities: The characterization of strange sets

TL;DR: A description of normalized distributions (measures) lying upon possibly fractal sets; for example those arising in dynamical systems theory, focusing upon the scaling properties of such measures, which are characterized by two indices: \ensuremath{\alpha}, which determines the strength of their singularities; and f, which describes how densely they are distributed.

Scaling laws for ising models near T c

TL;DR: In this paper, a model for describing the behavior of Ising models very near to the homogeneity of the free energy is introduced. The model is based upon dividing the Ising model into cells which are microscopically large but much smaller than the coherence length and then using the total magnetization within each cell as a collective variable.
