Abstract: We propose a model combining the first-order liquid-liquid and the second-order ferroelectric phase transitions phenomenology to explain various features of the $\lambda$-point of liquid water. We suggest that the long-range dipole-dipole interaction of water molecules leads to a ferroelectric phase transition, which occurs only in the low-density component of the liquid and is the origin of the singularity of the dielectric constant recently observed in experiments with supercooled liquid water in nano-porous materials. Finally, we establish the model parameters and prove the consistency of the combined model by comparing its predictions with experimental data and the results of recent MD simulations.
