We review some results on the effect of a specific type of quenched disorder on well known O(m)-vector models in three dimension. Evidences of changes of criticality in both systems, when confined in aerogel pores, are briefly referenced.…

The Z(3) gauge model with double plaquette representation of the action on a generalized Bethe lattice of plaquettes is constructed. It is reduced to the spin-1 Blume-Emery-Griffiths (BEG) model. An Ising-type critical line of a…
The Ising square lattice model with nearest-neighbor (nn) interactions ($J_1$) is one of the few exactly solvable models [1]. Adding next-neareast- neighbor (nnn) interactions ($J_2$) or a magnetic field (or both) leads to the non…

The infinite-range-interaction Ising spin glass is considered in the presence of an external random magnetic field following a trimodal (three-peak) distribution. The model is studied through the replica method and phase diagrams are…

We study the q-state Potts model on the simple cubic lattice with ferromagnetic interactions in one lattice direction, and antiferromagnetic interactions in the two other directions. As the temperature T decreases, the system undergoes a…
We discuss the critical behaviour of 2D Ising and q-states Potts models coupled by their energy density. We found new tricritical points. The procedure employed is the renormalisation approach of the perturbations series around conformal…

We discuss the thermodynamics of the O(N) nonlinear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions. In particular we investigate the NLO 1/N correction to the 1PI finite temperature effective potential expressed in terms of an auxiliary field. The effective…
We prove a Central Limit Theorem for the linear statistics of two-dimensional Coulomb gases, with arbitrary inverse temperature and general confining potential, at the macroscopic and mesoscopic scales and possibly near the boundary of the…
We derive the equation of state of a two-dimensional Bose gas in an optical lattice in the framework of the Bose-Hubbard model. We focus on the vicinity of the multicritical points where the quantum phase transition between the Mott…
A famous example of gauge/gravity duality is the result that the entropy density of strongly coupled ${\cal N}=4$ SYM in four dimensions for large N is exactly 3/4 of the Stefan-Boltzmann limit. In this work, I revisit the massless O(N)…
We consider a lattice gas model which in addition to the canonical nearest neighbor pair interatomic interaction accounts for a many-body interaction inside atomic trios. Interactions of this kind arise in the coherent strained epitaxy and…
We investigate the three-dimensional O(2) model on lattices of size 8^3 to 160^3 close to the critical point at zero magnetic field. We confirm explicitly the value of the critical coupling J_c found by Ballesteros et al. and estimate there…
