Conformally-invariant curves that appear at critical points in two-dimensional statistical mechanics systems, and their fractal geometry have received a lot of attention in recent years. On the one hand, Schramm has invented a new rigorous…

We consider three models of evolving interfaces intimately related to the weakly asymmetric simple exclusion process with $N$ particles on a finite lattice of $2N$ sites. Our Model 1 defines an evolving bridge on $[0,1]$, our Model 1-w an…

We consider the six-vertex model in an L-shaped domain of the square lattice, with domain wall boundary conditions. For free-fermion vertex weights the partition function can be expressed in terms of some Hankel determinant, or equivalently…

We provide a general framework of estimates for convergence rates of random discrete model curves approaching Schramm Loewner Evolution (SLE) curves in the lattice size scaling limit. We show that a power-law convergence rate of an…

In the last few years, new insights have permitted unexpected progress in the study of fractal shapes in two dimensions. A new approach, called Schramm-Loewner evolution, or SLE, has arisen through analytic function theory and probability…

We study integrability by quadrature of a spatially flat Friedmann model containing both a minimally coupled scalar field $\phi$ with an exponential potential $V(\phi)\sim\exp[-\sqrt{6}\sigma\kappa\phi]$, $\kappa=\sqrt{8\pi G_N}$, of…

We give a physical interpretation of the entries of the reflection $K$-matrices of Baxter's eight-vertex model in terms of an Ising interaction at an open boundary. Although the model still defies an exact solution we nevertheless obtain…

We study a two dimensional XXZ-Ising on square-hexagon (4-6) lattice with spin-1/2. The phase diagram of the ground state energy is discussed, shown two different ferrimagnetic states and two type of antiferromagnetic states, beside of a…

We consider the homogeneous five-vertex model on a rectangle domain of the square lattice with so-called scalar-product boundary conditions. Peculiarity of these boundary conditions is that the configurations of the model are in an…

We point out that the construction of a martingale observable describing the spin interface of the two-dimensional Ising model extends to a class of non-integrable variants of the two-dimensional Ising model, and express it in terms of…

The free energies of six-vertex models on general domain D with various boundary conditions are investigated with the use of the n-equivalence relation which classifies the thermodynamic limit properties. It is derived that the free energy…

We have studied the iso-height lines on the $\mathrm{WO_3}$ surface as a physical candidate for conformally invariant curves. We have shown that these lines are conformally invariant with the same statistics of domain walls in the critical…

Four-dimensional state space geometry is worked out for the exactly solved one-dimensional spin-3/2 lattice with a Blume-Emery-Griffiths (BEG) Hamiltonian as well as a more general one with a term containing a non-zero field coupling to the…

Schramm-Loewner Evolutions ($\SLE$) are random curves in planar simply connected domains; the massless (Euclidean) free field in such a domain is a random distribution. Both have conformal invariance properties in law. In the present…

This work establishes a scaling limit theorem for the Stefan problem incorporating a mushy region, demonstrating that solutions to stochastic variants with turbulent transport terms converge to the solution to a deterministic partial…

In this note we consider the ansatz for Multiple Schramm-Loewner Evolutions (SLEs) proposed by Bauer, Bernard and Kytola from a more probabilistic point of view. Here we show their ansatz is a consequence of conformal invariance,…

Spatial random permutations were originally studied due to their connections to Bose-Einstein condensation, but they possess many interesting properties of their own. For random permutations of a regular lattice with periodic boundary…

We study the scaling limit of planar loop erased random walk (LERW) on the percolation cluster, with occupation probability $p\geq p_c$. We numerically demonstrate that the scaling limit of planar LERW$_p$ curves, for all $p>p_c$, can be…

The scaling limit of the spectrum, $S$ matrix, and of the form factors of the polarization operator in the six vertex model has been found. The result for the form factors is consistent with the form factors of the sine-Gordon model found…
