Abstract
A theoretical study of a diluted mixed spin-1/2 and spin-S (S > 1) Isi ng model in a random field is presented on the basis of the effective- field theory. The general formulations for determining the phase diagr am (transition temperature and tricritical point) of the system with a crystal-field interaction are discussed. In particular, the phase dia grams of the system with S = 3/2 are examined in detail on the honeyco mb lattice and some interesting phenomena are found, such as the appea rance of a tricritical point on the honeycomb lattice.
