“…It is not feasible to substitute them in the solutions of the cubic equation (6), which are a bit complicated too, and then check the condition (11) for arbitrary values of the parameters b, c, x. Fortunately, in order to compute the exponent σ or y h we only need to study the vicinity of the YLES. The YLES is located at A(ϕ = 0) since at ϕ = 0 the two, presumably, largest eigenvalues of the transfer matrix coincide (λ 1 = λ 2 ) which guarantees, see the original works [20], [21] and [11] for a recent work, the existence of phase transition. Therefore, only the behavior of the solutions of the equation (15) about ϕ = 0 is required, as already noticed in [13], remembering of course that (11) must hold.…”
