Abstract
We provide an introductory account of a tricritical phase diagram, in the setting of a mean-field random walk model of a polymer density transition, and clarify the nature of the density transition in this context. We consider a continuous-time random walk model on the complete graph, in the limit as the number of vertices $N$ in the graph grows to infinity. The walk has a repulsive self-interaction, as well as a competing attractive self-interaction whose strength is controlled by a parameter $g$. A chemical potential $\nu$ controls the walk length. We determine the phase diagram in the $(g,\nu)$ plane, as a model of a density transition for a single linear polymer chain. A dilute phase (walk of bounded length) is separated from a dense phase (walk of length of order $N$) by a phase boundary curve. The phase boundary is divided into two parts, corresponding to first-order and second-order phase transitions, with the division occurring at a tricritical point. The proof uses a supersymmetric representation for the random walk model, followed by a single block-spin renormalisation group step to reduce the problem to a 1-dimensional integral, followed by application of the Laplace method for an integral with a large parameter.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
