Monte Carlo simulations of a tethered membrane model on a disk with intrinsic curvature

arXiv:cond-mat/0503139 · doi:10.1016/j.physleta.2005.03.018

Abstract

A first-order phase transition separating the smooth phase from the crumpled one is found in a fixed connectivity surface model defined on a disk. The Hamiltonian contains the Gaussian term and an intrinsic curvature term.
