Thermodynamics of classical frustrated spin chain at the ferromagnet-helimagnet transition point

Low-temperature thermodynamics of the classical frustrated ferromagnetic spin chain is studied. Using transfer-matrix method we found the behavior of the correlation function and zero-field susceptibility at the ferromagnetic-helical transition point. It is shown that the critical exponent for the susceptibility is changed from 2 to 4/3 at the transition point.
