In this paper, using the theories of Bogolyubov-Hellman-Feynman (BHF) and mean-spherical approximation, we get the system free energy within the four-order self-consistent cumulant expansion. According to the conditions of equilibrium state and self-consistent equation, we obtain the relation between reduced temperature and inverse correlation length and disscuss that the cubic invariant item is important in explaining BPIII to isotropic transition.

In recent years, tools from quantum information theory have become indispensable in characterizing many-body systems. In this work, we employ measures of entanglement to study the interplay between disorder and the topological phase in 1D systems of the Kitaev type, which can host Majorana end modes at their edges. We find that the entanglement entropy may actually increase as a result of disorder, and identify the origin of this behavior in the appearance of an infinite-disorder critical point. We also employ the entanglement spectrum to accurately determine the phase diagram of the system, and find that disorder may enhance the topological phase, and lead to the appearance of Majorana zero modes in systems whose clean version is trivial.
