In this paper, we consider Vannimenus model with competing nearest-neighbors and prolonged next-nearest-neighbors interactions on a Cayley tree. For this model we define Markov random fields with memory of length 2. By using a new approach,…
We consider polynomial long-range Ising models in one dimension, with ferromagnetic pair interactions decaying with power $2-\alpha$ (for $0 \leq \alpha < 1$), and prepared with randomly chosen boundary conditions. We show that at low…
It is generally believed (but not yet proved) that Ising spin glasses with nearest-neighbor interactions have a phase transition in three and higher dimensions to a low-temperature spin glass phase, but the nature of this phase remains…
The infinite-volume limit behavior of the 2d Ising model under possibly strong random boundary conditions is studied. The model exhibits chaotic size-dependence at low temperatures and we prove that the `+' and `-' phases are the only…
We perform a detailed study of Gibbs-non-Gibbs transitions for the Curie-Weiss model subject to independent spin-flip dynamics ("infinite-temperature" dynamics). We show that, in this setup, the program outlined in van Enter, Fern\'andez,…
In the present paper the Ising model with competing binary $J$ and $J_1$ interactions with spin values $\pm 1$, on a Cayley tree is considered. We study translation-invatiant Gibbs measures and corresponding free energies ones.
We investigate the performance of an adiabatic evolution protocol when initialized from a Gibbs state at finite temperature. Specifically, we identify the diagonality of the final state in the energy eigenbasis, as well as the difference in…
We prove that all the translation invariant Gibbs states of the Ising model are a linear combination of the pure phases $\mu^+,\mu^-$ in the phase transition regime. This implies that the average magnetization is continuous in the phase…
We study the equilibrium properties of the repulsive quantum Bose-Hubbard model at high temperatures in arbitrary dimensions, with and without disorder. In its microcanonical setting the model conserves energy and particle number. The…
We investigate, in a fairly general setting, the limit of large volume equilibrium Gibbs measures for elasticity type Hamiltonians with clamped boundary conditions. The existence of a quasiconvex free energy, forming the large deviations…
We exactly prove the no-passing rule in the ground state evolution of the random-field Ising model (RFIM) with monotonically varying external field. In particular, we show that the application of the no-passing rule can speed up the…
A rigorous description of the equilibrium thermodynamic properties of an infinite system of interacting $\nu$-dimensional quantum anharmonic oscillators is given. The oscillators are indexed by the elements of a countable set…
A family of nonequilibrium kinetic Ising models, introduced earlier, evolving under the competing effect of spin flips at {\it zero temperature} and nearest neighbour random spin exchanges is further investigated here. By increasing the…
We consider the (scalar) gradient fields $\eta=(\eta_b)$--with $b$ denoting the nearest-neighbor edges in $\Z^2$--that are distributed according to the Gibbs measure proportional to $\texte^{-\beta H(\eta)}\nu(\textd\eta)$. Here…
We prove rigorously that the ferromagnetic Ising model on any nonamenable Cayley graph undergoes a continuous (second-order) phase transition in the sense that there is a unique Gibbs measure at the critical temperature. The proof of this…
We consider a Glauber dynamics associated with the Ising model on a large two-dimensional box with with minus boundary conditions and in the limit of a vanishing positive external magnetic field. The volume of this box increases…
We show that decimation transformations applied to high-$q$ Potts models result in non-Gibbsian measures even for temperatures higher than the transition temperature. We also show that majority transformations applied to the Ising model in…
In this paper, we consider the $\lambda$-model with nearest neighbor interactions and with competing Potts interactions on the Cayley tree of order-two. We notice that if $\lambda$-function is taken as a Potts interaction function, then…
For the low-temperature two-dimensional Ising model, the two pure Gibbs phases exhaust the extremal equilibrium states, but not the pathwise absorbing structure of the Glauber dynamics. Let \[ P^\pm=\{\sigma:M_n(\sigma)\to \pm…
The paper concerns the $q$-state Potts model (i.e., with spin values in $\{1,\dots,q\}$) on a Cayley tree $\mathbb{T}^k$ of degree $k\geq 2$ (i.e., with $k+1$ edges emanating from each vertex) in an external (possibly random) field. We…
