In this paper the authors are interested in studying critical behavior of Hermitian one-matrix models where the topological expansion for the free-energy develops a logarithmic singularity, {Gamma} {proportional to} {mu}{sup 2} log {mu}+. The authors consider models where the potential is of the type U(M) = t{sub 0}V{sub 0}(M) {minus} t{sub f} log V{sub f} (M). The authors show that, for t{sub f} {gt} 0 allows the possibility of Bose condensation, which is shown to be responsible for a logarithmic scaling violation for the free energy.
