We describe a simple nearest-neighbor Ising model that is capable of supporting a gas, liquid, crystal, in characteristic relationship to each other. As the parameters of the model are varied one obtains characteristic patterns of phase…
In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 129, 120601] we have shown that the dynamics of interfaces, in the symmetry-broken phase of the two-dimensional ferromagnetic quantum Ising model, displays a robust form of ergodicity breaking. In this…

A relation between O(n) lattice spin models and Ising models defined on the same lattice was recently put forward [L. Casetti, C. Nardini, and R. Nerattini, Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 057208 (2011)]. Such a relation, inspired by an energy…
