The class of two-spin systems contains several important models, including random independent sets and the Ising model of statistical physics. We show that for both the hard-core (independent set) model and the anti-ferromagnetic Ising…

We show how to properly gauge fix all the symmetries of the Ponzano-Regge model for 3D quantum gravity. This amounts to do explicit finite computations for transition amplitudes. We give the construction of the transition amplitudes in the…
We propose a hole decomposition scheme to exactly solve a class of spin-1 quantum Ising models with transverse or longitudinal single-ion anisotropy. In this scheme, the spin-1 model is mapped onto a family of the $S=1/2$ transverse Ising…

Real-space renormalization-group techniques for quantum systems can be divided into two basic categories - those capable of representing correlations following a simple boundary (or area) law, and those which are not. I discuss the scaling…
