  The Yang-Lee zeros of the Q-state Potts model are investigated in 1, 2 and 3
dimensions. Analytical results derived from the transfer matrix for the
one-dimensional model reveal a systematic behavior of the locus of zeros as a
function of Q. For 1<Q<2 the zeros in the complex $x=\exp(\beta H_q)$ plane lie
inside the unit circle, while for Q>2 they lie outside the unit circle for
finite temperature. In the special case Q=2 the zeros lie exactly on the unit
circle as proved by Lee and Yang. In two and three dimensions the zeros are
calculated numerically and behave in the same way. Results are also presented
for the critical line of the Potts model in an external field as determined
from the zeros of the partition function in the complex temperature plane.
