Popis: An exactly solvable lattice model describing structural phase transitions in an anharmonic crystal with long-range interaction (decreasing at large distances r as r−d−σ, where d is the space dimensionality and 0 < σ ≤ 2) is considered near to its zero-temperature critical point. The low-temperature behavior of the bulk specific heat capacity at the lower classical critical dimension (d = σ) is studied in different regions of the (T, λ)-phase diagram, where T is the temperature and λ is a parameter which switches on quantum fluctuations. From the results obtained one can see that when T → 0+ the specific heat capacity tends to zero in a different way in the regions: (a) renormalized classical region - as T raised to the second power and (b) quantum disordered region - exponentially.
