A model describing Ising spins with short range interactions moving randomly in a plane is considered. In the presence of a hard core repulsion, which prevents the Ising spins from overlapping, the model is analogous to a dynamically…
This is a survey of recent advances in commutative algebra, especially in mixed characteristic, obtained by using the theory of perfectoid spaces. An explanation of these techniques and a short account of the author's proof of the direct…
We propose a conjectural formula for $DR_g(a,-a) \lambda_g$ and check all its expected properties. Our formula refines the one point case of a similar conjecture made by the first named author in collaboration with Gu\'er\'e and Rossi, and…
While the Ising model remains essential to understand physical phenomena, its natural connection to combinatorial reasoning makes it also one of the best models to probe complex systems in science and engineering. We bring a computational…
We propose a solution to the puzzle of dimensional reduction in the random field Ising model, inverting the question and asking: to what random problem in $D=d+2$ dimensions does a pure system in $d$ dimensions correspond? We consider two…
We study a three-dimensional (3D) classical Ising model that is exactly solvable when some coupling constants take certain imaginary values. The solution combines and generalizes the Onsager-Kaufman solution of the 2D Ising model and the…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author because Conjecture 1 is false. Please see arXiv:0901.2093 for a justification that Conjecture 1 is false. The other main results are also available from the above URL.
We outline our work (see [1,2,3,4]) on relaxation and 3d-2d passage with determinant type constraints. Some open questions are addressed. This outline-paper comes as a companion to [5].

In this paper a new approach to solving the 2D and 3D Ising models in external magnetic field $H\neq0$ is developed. The general formalism for the approach to the problem is presented on the example of the 2D Ising model in the external…
We provide some comments on the article `High-dimensional simultaneous inference with the bootstrap' by Ruben Dezeure, Peter Buhlmann and Cun-Hui Zhang.
The site-decorated Ising model is introduced to advance the understanding and experimental realization of the recently discovered one-dimensional (1D) finite-temperature ultranarrow phase crossover in an external magnetic field, while…
We briefly review the Ising model with uncorrelated, quenched random-site or random-bond disorder, which has been controversial in both two and four dimensions. In these dimensions, the leading exponent alpha, which characterizes the…
In this short note, we give an affirmative answer to Wu's conjecture on practical numbers, which was posed in [X.-H. Wu, {\it Special forms and the distribution of practical numbers}, Acta Math. Hungar., {\bf 160}(2020), 405-411].
Using finite-size scaling techniques, we study the critical properties of the site-diluted Ising model in four dimensions. We carry out a high statistics Monte Carlo simulation for several values of the dilution. The results support the…
In 3 dimensions, the Ising model is in the same universality class as $\phi^4$-theory, whose massive 3-loop tetrahedral diagram, $C^{Tet}$, was of an unknown analytical nature. In contrast, all single-scale 4-dimensional tetrahedra were…
We consider a model of liquid crystals, based on a nonlinear hyperbolic system of differential equations, that represents an inviscid version of the model proposed by Qian and Sheng. A new concept of dissipative solution is proposed, for…
Many 2D lattice models of physical phenomena are conjectured to have conformally invariant scaling limits: percolation, Ising model, self-avoiding polymers, ... This has led to numerous exact (but non-rigorous) predictions of their scaling…
In this paper we survey the history of, and recent developments on, two major conjectures originating in Zilber's model-theoretic work on complex exponentiation -- Existential Closedness and Zilber-Pink. The main focus is on the modular…
