Semi-Markov Random Walks and Universality in Ising-like Chains

Statistical Mechanics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We exhibit a one to one correspondence between some universal probabilistic properties of the ordering coordinate of one-dimensional Ising-like models and a class of continuous time random walks. This correspondence provides an new qualitative picture of the properties of the ordering coordinate of the Ising model.
