We investigate a model of closed $(d-1)$-dimensional soft-self-avoiding random surfaces on a $d$-dimensional cubic lattice. The energy of a surface configuration is given by $E=J(n_{2}+4k n_{4})$, where $n_{2}$ is the number of edges, where…

The long-range one-dimensional Ising spin-glass with random couplings decaying as $J(r) \propto r^{-\sigma}$ presents a spin-glass phase $T_c(\sigma)>0$ for $0 \leq \sigma<1$ (the limit $\sigma=0$ corresponds to the mean-field SK-model). We…
In this study, we extend the lower bound on the average of the local energy of the Ising model with quenched randomness [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 76, 074711 (2007)] obtained for a symmetric distribution to an asymmetric one. Compared with the…
We propose a new method for exact analytical calculation of the ground-state energy of the Ising spin glass on strips. An outstanding advantage of this method over the numerical transfer matrix technique is that the energy is obtained for…
It is believed that the $\pm J$ Ising spin-glass does not order at finite temperatures in dimension $d=2$. However, using a graphical representation and a contour argument, we prove rigorously the existence of a finite-temperature phase…
