In this reply, I point out that the comment by Jacques H.H. Perk on my paper "Exact Solution for Three-Dimensional Ising Model" [Symmetry 2021, 13, 1837] is wrong because the author seems not to understand the Onsager operators along both…
Two conjectures recently proposed by one of the authors are disproved
Recent numerical results point to the existence of a conformally invariant twist defect in the critical 3d Ising model. In this note we show that this fact is supported by both epsilon expansion and conformal bootstrap calculations. We find…
We discuss a geometrical interpretation of the Z-invariant Ising model in terms of isoradial embeddings of planar lattices. The Z-invariant Ising model can be defined on an arbitrary planar lattice if and only if certain paths on the…
Even though classic theories and models of discrete choice pose man as a rational being, it has been shown extensively that people persistently violate rationality in their actual choices. Recent models of decision-making take these…
We point out that the recursive formula that appears in Erickson's presentation "Fusible Numbers" is incorrect, and pose an alternate conjecture about the structure of fusible numbers. Although we are unable to solve the conjecture, we…
This document collects several approaches attempted in proving the Chen-Raspaud Conjecture for k = 3. Each approach is detailed with full proofs and explanations of why it failed. This compilation aims to provide insights and a foundation…
We consider the Ising model between 2 and 4 dimensions perturbed by quenched disorder in the strength of the interaction between nearby spins. In the interval 2<d<4 this disorder is a relevant perturbation that drives the system to a new…
This is the first in a series of papers where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of ``global confor- mal invariants"; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars.…
This is the fifth in a series of papers where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of ``global conformal invariants''; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars.…
In this paper we prove two conjectures stated by Chao-Ping Chen in [Int. Trans. Spec. Funct. 23:12 (2012), 865--873], using a method for proving inequalities of mixed trigonometric polynomial functions.
Recently Z.W.Sun found over hundred conjectured formulas for 1/pi. Many of them were proved by H.H.Chan, J.Wan andW.Zudilin (see [3], [8] in the paper). Here we show that several other formulas in [6] are simple transformations of known…
We critically discuss the results reported in arXiv:2311.17994v1 by L. Oppenheim, M. Koch-Janusz, S. Gazit, and Z. Ringel, on the multicritical behavior of the three-dimensional Ising-Gauge model at the multicritical point. We argue that…

A combination of recent numerical and theoretical advances are applied to analyze the scaling behaviour of the site-diluted Ising model in two dimensions, paying special attention to the implications for multiplicative logarithmic…
The two-dimensional Ising model of a ferromagnet allows for many ways of computing its partition function and other properties. Each way reveals surprising features of what we might call Ising Matter. Moreover, the various ways would appear…

In this paper we study the linearizability problem for 3-webs on a 2-dimensional manifold. With an explicit computation based on the theory developed in the paper "On the linearizability of 3-webs" (Nonlinear analysis 47, (2001) pp.…
We comment on a recent paper by Li and Wang [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 044301 (2003)], and argue that their results violate the non-existence of a characteristic time scale in subdiffusive systems.
After briefly reviewing selected Ising and chiral Potts model results, we discuss a number of properties of cyclic hypergeometric functions which appear naturally in the description of the integrable chiral Potts model and its…
