Abstract

We present a complete analytical solution of a system of Potts spins on a random k-regular graph in both the canonical and microcanonical ensembles, using the Large Deviation Cavity Method (LDCM). The solution is shown to be composed of three different branches, resulting in a non-concave entropy function. The analytical solution is confirmed with numerical Metropolis and Creutz simulations and our results clearly demonstrate the presence of a region with negative specific heat and, consequently, ensemble inequivalence between the canonical and microcanonical ensembles.
