We consider m two-dimensional semi-infinite planes of Ising spins joined together through surface spins and study the critical behaviour near to the junction. The m=0 limit of the model - according to the replica trick - corresponds to the…
We report the discovery of a multicritical point that extends the liquid-gas paradigm to systems with competing symmetry-breaking orders. Using large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of a frustrated bilayer Ising antiferromagnet with tunable…
The study of the Ising model from a percolation perspective has played a significant role in the modern theory of critical phenomena. We consider the celebrated square-lattice Ising model and construct percolation clusters by placing bonds,…
It is shown that continuously changing the effective number of interacting particles in p-spin-glass-like model allows to describe the transition from the full replica symmetry breaking glass solution to stable first replica symmetry…
We present a method of general applicability for finding exact or accurate approximations to bond percolation thresholds for a wide class of lattices. To every lattice we sytematically associate a polynomial, the root of which in $[0,1]$ is…
The frequency-dependent scaling of the dispersive and dissipative parts of the alternating susceptibility is studied for spin glasses at criticality. An extension of the usual $\omega t$-scaling is proposed. Simulational data from the…
We show that atoms in tilted optical superlattices provide a platform for exploring coupled spin chains of forms that are not present in other systems. In particular, using a period-2 superlattice in 1D, we show that coupled Ising spin…
A new graphical method is developed to calculate the critical temperature of 2- and 3-dimensional Ising models as well as that of the 2-dimensional Potts models. This method is based on the transfer matrix method and using the limited…
In this work we obtain wrapping probabilities for Ising spin clusters on a torus. We use the analogy with the tricritical point of a Potts model with dilution. The formula obtained are tested against numerical simulation. We also provide…
Extensive simulations are made of the link overlap in five dimensional Ising Spin Glasses (ISGs) through and below the ordering transition. Moments of the mean link overlap distributions (the kurtosis and the skewness) show clear critical…
For the study of Ising models of general spin S on the square lattice, we have combined our recently extended high-temperature expansions with the low-temperature expansions derived some time ago by Enting, Guttmann and Jensen. We have…
Smith et al discovered an aperiodic monotile of 13-sided shape in 2023. It is called the `Smith hat' and consists of 8 kites. We deal with the statistical physics of the lattice of the kites, which we call the `Smith-kite lattice'. We…
The centred pyrochlore lattice is a novel geometrically frustrated lattice, realized in the metal-organic framework Mn(ta)$_2$ (arXiv:2203.08780) where the basic unit of spins is a five site centred tetrahedron. Here, we present an in-depth…
In this work, the computational complexity of a spin-glass three-dimensional (3D) Ising model (for the lattice size N = lmn, where l, m, n are the numbers of lattice points along three crystallographic directions) is studied. We prove that…
Obtaining the low-energy configurations of spin glasses that have rugged energy landscapes is of direct relevance to combinatorial optimization and fundamental science. Search-based heuristics have difficulty with this task due to the…
Finding an exact ground state of a three-dimensional (3D) Ising spin glass is proven to be an NP-hard problem (i.e., at least as hard as any problem in the nondeterministic polynomial-time (NP) class). Given validity of the exponential time…
There have been many versions of spin-dependent parton distributions in the literature. Although most agree with present data within uncertainties, they are based upon different physical assumptions. Some physical models are discussed and…
We point out a possibility of the weak universality of spin-glass phase transitions in three dimensions. The Ising, the XY, and the Heisenberg models with $\pm J$ bond distributions undergo finite-temperature phase transitions with a ratio…
We consider the problem of algorithmically sampling from the Gibbs measure of a mixed $p$-spin spherical spin glass. We give a polynomial-time algorithm that samples from the Gibbs measure up to vanishing total variation error, for any…
