Abstract
Multicritical phase diagrams in structural systems under the influence of external fields have been the subject of considerable theoretical interest during recent years1–5. Hamiltonians containing cubic anisotropy have been discussed extensively1–11, usually in a socalled quadratic field, i.e. a field which couples quadratically to the order parameter. In the present paper we focus particularly on such cases since they represent a very important class of multicritical systems, and since they constitute the bulk of systems which have so far been subject to systematic experimental investigations.
