Substantial progress has recently been made in the understanding of the cutoff phenomenon for Markov processes, using an information-theoretic statistics known as varentropy [Sal23; Sal24; Sal25a; PS25]. In the present paper, we propose an…

Glauber dynamics of the Ising model on a random regular graph is known to mix fast below the tree uniqueness threshold and exponentially slowly above it. We show that Kawasaki dynamics of the canonical ferromagnetic Ising model on a random…
Recent tensor-network samplings of modified Nishimori spin glasses have revealed robust finite-temperature critical transitions in two dimensions, defying the standard Edwards-Anderson lower critical dimension boundary ($d_{l}\approx2.5$).…
We introduce and analyze a nonlinear exchange dynamics for Ising spin systems with arbitrary interactions. The evolution is governed by a quadratic Boltzmann-type equation that conserves the mean magnetization. Collisions are encoded…
We prove two results on the mixing times of Markov chains for two-spin systems. First, we show that the Glauber dynamics mixes in polynomial time for the Gibbs distributions of antiferromagnetic two-spin systems at the critical threshold of…
In [arXiv:1806.06668], we have studied the Boltzmann random triangulation of the disk coupled to an Ising model on its faces with Dobrushin boundary condition at its critical temperature. In this paper, we investigate the phase transition…
We consider stochastic spin-flip dynamics for: (i) monotone discrete surfaces in Z^3 with planar boundary height and (ii) the one-dimensional discrete Solid-on-Solid (SOS) model confined to a box. In both cases we show almost optimal bounds…
We study the nearest-neighbour Ising model with a class of random boundary conditions, chosen from a symmetric i.i.d. distribution. We show for dimensions 4 and higher that almost surely the only limit points for a sequence of increasing…

In this paper, we investigate the robustness to external disturbances of switched discrete and continuous systems with multiple equilibria. It is shown that if each subsystem of the switched system is Input-to-State Stable (ISS), then under…
The edge-cubic spin model on square lattice is studied via Monte Carlo simulation with cluster algorithm. By cooling the system, we found two successive symmetry breakings, i.e., the breakdown of $O_h$ into the group of $C_{3h}$ which then…
In atmospheric science, slice models are frequently used to study the behaviour of weather, and specifically the formation of atmospheric fronts, whose prediction is fundamental in meteorology. In 2013, Cotter and Holm introduced a new…
We study the coevolution of a generalized Glauber dynamics for Ising spins, with tunable threshold, and of the graph topology where the dynamics takes place. This simple coevolution dynamics generates a rich phase diagram in the space of…
Phase transition of the Ising model is investigated on a planar lattice that has a fractal structure. On the lattice, the number of bonds that cross the border of a finite area is doubled when the linear size of the area is extended by a…
In this study the magnetization phenomenon has been investigated as a behavior of interacting elementary moments ensemble, with the help of Ising model [1] in the frame of non-extensive statistical mechanics. To investigate the physical…
We recently constructed type-IIB compactifications to four dimensions depending on a single additional coordinate, where a five-form flux $\Phi$ on an internal torus leads to a constant string coupling. Supersymmetry is fully broken when…

This paper presents a framework for the study of convergence when the nodes' dynamics may be both piecewise smooth and/or nonidentical across the network. Specifically, we derive sufficient conditions for global convergence of all node…
We analyze the mixing time of a natural local Markov chain (the Glauber dynamics) on configurations of the solid-on-solid model of statistical physics. This model has been proposed, among other things, as an idealization of the behavior of…
