Partition function zeros of the Q-state Potts model on the simple-cubic   lattice
  The $Q$-state Potts model on the simple-cubic lattice is studied using the zeros of the exact partition function on a finite lattice. The critical behavior of the model in the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases is discussed based on the distribution of the zeros in the complex temperature plane. The characteristic exponents at complex-temperature singularities, which coexist with the physical critical points in the complex temperature plane for no magnetic field ($H_q=0$), are estimated using the low-temperature series expansion. We also study the partition function zeros of the Potts model for nonzero magnetic field. For $H_q>0$ the physical critical points disappear and the Fisher edge singularities appear in the complex temperature plane. The characteristic exponents at the Fisher edge singularities are calculated using the high-field, low-temperature series expansion. It seems that the Fisher edge singularity is related to the Yang-Lee edge singularity which appears in the complex magnetic-field plane for $T>T_c$.
