Description
The phase transition in fully-connected, multimode equal-coupling photonic networks is studied via numerical simulations and by using methods from statistical mechanics. Finite-size scaling is used to estimate critical points and exponents, yielding a phase diagram in a relevant parameter plane, and confirming mean-field behavior as for the planar XY model.
