內容簡介
全書共分3章，第一章講述滲濾現象的研究方法，並就一維、二維滲濾的定義、點陣結構、塊體的大小和數密度、關聯函式、標度函式、臨界指數和實空間重整化群的變換方法等方面都作了詳盡的介紹。第二章的重點是講述二維伊辛模型的相變理論，涉及相互作用自旋系統的自由能和配分函式、磁化強度和磁導率、能量和比熱、回響函式、平均場理論、相變的朗道ˉ京茨堡理論、Widom標度假設、臨界指數和W ilson重整化群論。第三章介紹自組織臨界狀態。本章從容易想像的所謂“沙堆”模型出發，討論沙堆崩塌的物理處理方法，從中引入開放系統的平均場理論、二分叉理論和幾率分布的矩分析、定態出現的條件等。本章還就地震和降雨的預測預報作了定性討論。
