We prove convergence of the 2- and 4-point fermionic observables of the FK-Ising model on simply connected domains discretised by a planar isoradial lattice in massive (near-critical) scaling limit. The former is alternatively known as a…
We study a one-dimensional spin-$1/2$ model with three-spin interactions and a transverse magnetic field $h$. The model has a $Z_2 \times Z_2$ symmetry, and a duality between $h$ and $1/h$. The self-dual point at $h=1$ is a quantum critical…
A cluster Monte Carlo algorithm for the Ashkin-Teller (AT) model is constructed according to the guidelines of a general scheme for such algorithms. Its dynamical behaviour is tested for the square lattice AT model. We perform simulations…

Let a second order Fuchsian differential equation with only univalued solutions have finite singular points at z_1, ..., z_n with exponents (a_1,b_1), ..., (a_n,b_n). Let the exponents at infinity be (A,B). Then for fixed generic…

We employ the axiomatic framework of Rychkov and Tan to investigate the critical O$(N)$ vector model with a line defect in $(4-\epsilon)$ dimensions. We assume the fixed point is described by defect conformal field theory and show that the…
We consider identical copies of spin glasses in finite dimension coupled at the boundaries. This allows to identify the spin glass analogous of twisted boundary conditions in ferromagnetic system and leads to the definition of an interface…
We consider the Ashkin-Teller model on the square lattice, which is represented by two Ising models ($\sigma$ and $\tau$) having a four-spin coupling of strength, $\epsilon$, between them. We introduce an asymmetric defect line in the…
We study cutoff and lattice effects in the O(n) symmetric $\phi^4$ theory for a $d$-dimensional cubic geometry of size $L$ with periodic boundary conditions. In the large-N limit above $T_c$, we show that $\phi^4$ field theory at finite…
Consider the Ising model at low-temperatures and positive external field $\lambda$ on an $N\times N$ box with Dobrushin boundary conditions that are plus on the north, east, and west boundaries and minus on the south boundary. If $\lambda =…
A convenient way to study phase transitions of finite spins systems of linear size $L$ is to fix boundary conditions that impose the presence of a system-size interface. In this paper, we study the statistical properties of such an…
We identify a quantum critical point with fractal symmetry whose effective theory eludes the renormalization group framework. We consider the Newman-Moore model with three-body interaction subjected to an external transverse field, which…
In quantum optics and condensed matter physics non-Hermitian phenomena are often studied under the assumption of an open physical system. However, there are examples of intrinsically non-Hermitian, though often $\mathcal{PT}$ (parity-time)…
For the 11-dimensional supergravity over AdS_4 x S^7/Z_k, beginning with a general 4-from ansatz and the main geometry unchanged, we get a tower of massive and tachyonic pseudoscalars. Indeed, the resultant equations can be assigned to the…
An explicit realization of the affine Lie algebra \hat{sl}_2(C) at the critical level is constructed using a mixture of bosons and parafermions. Subsequently a representation of the associated Lepowsky-Wilson Z-algebra is given on a space…
The geometrical critical behaviour of the two-dimensional Q-state Potts model is usually studied in terms of the Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) clusters, or their surrounding loops. In this paper we study a quite different geometrical object: the…
Recent years witnessed an extensive development of the theory of the critical point in two-dimensional statistical systems, which allowed to prove {\it existence} and {\it conformal invariance} of the {\it scaling limit} for two-dimensional…
Exact critical properties of the one-dimensional SU($N$) interacting fermion model with open boundaries are studied by using the Bethe ansatz method. We derive the surface critical exponents of various correlation functions using boundary…
Recently a ``Pascal's triangle model" constructed with $\text{U}(1)$ rotor degrees of freedom was introduced, and it was shown that ($\textit{i}$.) this model possesses an infinite series of fractal symmetries; and ($\textit{ii}$.) it is…
