We consider a long-range growth dynamics on the two-dimensional integer lattice, initialized by a finite set of occupied points. Subsequently, a site $x$ becomes occupied if the pair consisting of the counts of occupied sites along the…
In Ising model on the simple cubic lattice, we describe the inverse temperature \beta in terms of the bare-mass M and study its critical behavior by the use of delta expansion from high temperature or large M side. In the vicinity of…
We consider percolation on the discrete torus $\mathbb{Z}_n^d$ at $p_c(\mathbb{Z}^d)$, the critical value for percolation on the corresponding infinite lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$, and within the scaling window around it. We assume that $d$ is a…
We investigate the complex-temperature singularities of the susceptibility of the 2D Ising model on a square lattice. From an analysis of low-temperature series expansions, we find evidence that as one approaches the point $u=u_s=-1$ (where…
We investigate the $\theta$-dependence of 2-dimensional $CP^{N-1}$ models in the large-$N$ limit by lattice simulations. Thanks to a recent algorithm proposed by M. Hasenbusch to improve the critical slowing down of topological modes,…
In the heavy quark limit of QCD, using the Operator Product Expansion, the formalism of Falk for hadrons or arbitrary spin, and the non-forward amplitude, as proposed by Uraltsev, we formulate sum rules involving the Isgur-Wise function…
We investigate spatial two-point correlation functions of mesonic operators in two-flavor lattice QCD at high temperatures. The simulated temperatures over the range $T \in [147, 330]$ MeV, where the critical temperature is estimated around…
Double beta decays are rare nuclear processes that can occur in two modes: two-neutrino double beta decay, observed in the Standard Model, and neutrinoless double beta decay, a hypothetical process with profound implications for Particle…
For general antiferromagnetic 2-spin systems, including the hardcore model and the antiferromagnetic Ising model, there is an $\mathsf{FPTAS}$ for the partition function on graphs of maximum degree $\Delta$ when the infinite regular tree…
We study the mixing time of the Swendsen-Wang dynamics for the ferromagnetic Ising and Potts models on the integer lattice ${\mathbb Z}^d$. This dynamics is a widely used Markov chain that has largely resisted sharp analysis because it is…
We study the kinetic Ising model under Glauber dynamics and establish an upper bound on the spectral gap for finite systems. This bound implies the critical exponent inequality $z \geq 2$, thereby rigorously improving the previously known…
Motivated by a 2019 result of Faulhuber-Steinerberger, we demonstrate that the real square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$ exhibits the same local, extremal property as the hexagonal lattice $\Lambda$, where distances of lattice points from the…
We study random one-Lipschitz integer functions $f$ on the vertices of a finite connected graph, sampled according to the weight $W(f) = \prod_{\langle v, w \rangle \in E} \mathbf{c}^{ \mathbb{I} \{ f(v) = f(w) \} }$ where $\mathbf{c} \geq…
Wegner's $\mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge model is the earliest formulation of pure lattice gauge theory and predicts the topological nature of the confinement-deconfinement transition. In three dimensions ($D=3$), the equilibrium critical behavior of…
