These lecture notes on 2D growth processes are divided in two parts. The first part is a non-technical introduction to stochastic Loewner evolutions (SLEs). Their relationship with 2D critical interfaces is illustrated using numerical…
A supersymmetric extension of the nonlinear O(3) sigma model in two spacetime dimensions is investigated by means of Monte Carlo simulations. We argue that it is impossible to construct a lattice action that implements both the O(3)…
In this paper we are concerned with the two-stage contact process introduced in \cite{Krone1999} on a high-dimensional lattice. By comparing this process with an auxiliary model which is a linear system, we obtain two limit theorems for…
We consider full scaling limits of planar nearcritical percolation in the Quad-Crossing-Topology introduced by Schramm and Smirnov. We show that two nearcritical scaling limits with different parameters are singular with respect to each…
In order to better understand what to expect from numerical CORE computations for two-dimensional massless QED (the Schwinger model) we wish to obtain some analytic control over the approach to the continuum limit for various choices of…
I derive a formulation of the 2-dimensional critical Ising model on non-uniform simplicial lattices. Surprisingly, the derivation leads to a set of geometric constraints that a lattice must satisfy in order for the model to have a…
We review some of the results that have been derived in the last years on conformal invariance, scaling limits and properties of some two-dimensional random curves. In particular, we describe the intuitive ideas that lead to the definition…
Using the analytic Bethe ansatz, we initiate a study of the scaling limit of the quasi-periodic $D^{(2)}_3$ spin chain. Supported by a detailed symmetry analysis, we determine the effective scaling dimensions of a large class of states in…
The O(n) non-linear $\sigma$-model is simulated on 2-dimensional regular and random lattices. We use two different levels of randomness in the construction of the random lattices and give a detailed explanation of the geometry of such…
Principal chiral models on a d-1 dimensional simplex are introduced and studied analytically in the large $N$ limit. The $d = 0, 2, 4$ and $\infty$ models are explicitly solved. Relationship with standard lattice models and with few-matrix…
We simulate the spin-1/2 Ising model and the Blume-Capel model at various values of the parameter D on the simple cubic lattice. We perform a finite size scaling study of lattices of a linear size up to L=360 to obtain accurate estimates…
A general two-dimensional spin model with U$(N)$ invariance, interpolating between $\CPN$ and ${\rm O}(2N)$ models, is studied in detail in order to illustrate both the general features of the $1/N$ expansion on the lattice and the specific…
The main technical and conceptual features of the lattice $1/N$ expansion in the scaling region are discussed in the context of a two-parameter two-dimensional spin model interpolating between $CP^{N-1}$ and $O(2N)$ $\sigma$ models, with…
Off-lattice DLA clusters grown with different levels of noise reduction are found to be consistent with a simple fractal fixed point. Cluster shapes and their ensemble variation exhibit a dominant slowest correction to scaling, and this…
Finite size scaling is shown to work very well for the block variables used in intermittency studies on a 2-d Ising lattice. The intermittency exponents so derived exhibit the expected relations to the magnetic critical exponent of the…
Inverse Laplace transform on the lattice spacing is introduced as a computational framework of the extrapolation of the strong coupling expansion to the scaling region. We apply the transform to the two-dimensional non-linear O(N) model at…
We consider the dimer model on the square and hexagonal lattices with doubly periodic weights. The purpose of this paper is threefold: (a) we establish a rigourous connection with the massive SLE$_2$ constructed by Makarov and Smirnov (and…
Let X be a tight t-design of dimension n for one of the open cases t=5 or t=7. An investigation of the lattice generated by X using arithmetic theory of quadratic forms allows to exclude infinitely many values for n.
The exact nature of the chiral phase transition in QCD is still under investigation. In $N_f=2$ and $N_f=(2+1)$ lattice simulations with staggered fermions the expected O($N$)-scaling behavior was observed. However, it is still not clear…
Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) anomalies are powerful symmetry-based constraints on the correlation, entanglement and dynamics of quantum many-body systems. In this review, we discuss various LSM anomalies and anomaly matching. We start with a…
