We report extensive simulation studies of phase behaviour in single component systems of particles interacting via a core-softened interparticle potential. Two recently proposed examples of such potentials are considered; one in which the…
Many problems of interest in computer science and information theory can be phrased in terms of a probability distribution over discrete variables associated to the vertices of a large (but finite) sparse graph. In recent years,…
We study the Gibbs statistics of high-density hard-core configurations on a unit square lattice $\mathbb{Z}^2$, for a general Euclidean exclusion distance $D$. As a by-product, we solve the disk-packing problem on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ for disks…
We consider Gibbs distributions on the set of permutations of $\mathbb Z^d$ associated to the Hamiltonian $H(\sigma):=\sum_{x} V(\sigma(x)-x)$, where $\sigma$ is a permutation and $V:\mathbb Z^d\to\mathbb R$ is a strictly convex potential.…
This work lies at the intersection of Gibbs models and hyperuniform point processes. Classical Gibbs models, whether defined on lattices or in continuous space, provide flexible tools to describe interacting particle systems but are…
We characterize the uniqueness condition in the hardcore model for bipartite graphs with degree bounds only on one side, and provide a nearly linear time sampling algorithm that works up to the uniqueness threshold. We show that the…
We prove that the set of automorphism invariant Gibbs measures for the $\varphi^4$ model on graphs of polynomial growth has at most two extremal measures at all values of $\beta$. We also give a sufficient condition to ensure that the set…
A relativistic mean-field model of nuclear matter with arbitrary proton fraction is studied at finite temperature. An analysis is performed of the liquid-gas phase transition in a system with two conserved charges (baryon number and…
Gibbs sampling is a common procedure used to fit finite mixture models. However, it is known to be slow to converge when exploring correlated regions of a parameter space and so blocking correlated parameters is sometimes implemented in…
Gibbsian line ensembles are families of Brownian lines arising in many natural contexts such as the level curves of three dimensional Ising interfaces, the solid-on-solid model, multi-layered polynuclear growth etc. An important example is…
Statistical physics models with hard constraints, such as the discrete hard-core gas model (random independent sets in a graph), are inherently combinatorial and present the discrete mathematician with a relatively comfortable setting for…
We show that for all sufficiently large d, the uniform proper 3-coloring model (in physics called the 3-state antiferromagnetic Potts model at zero temperature) on Z^d admits multiple maximal-entropy Gibbs measures. This is a consequence of…
The three species asymmetric ABC model was initially defined on a ring by Evans, Kafri, Koduvely, and Mukamel, and the weakly asymmetric version was later studied by Clincy, Derrida, and Evans. Here the latter model is studied on a…
Using Monte Carlo Simulation and fundamental measure theory we study the phase diagram of a two-dimensional lattice gas model with a nearest neighbor hard core exclusion and a next-to-nearest neighbors finite repulsive interaction. The…
We study the gas-liquid phase diagram and the crossover behavior of a simple model of ionic fluid: an equimolar binary mixture of equisized hard spheres interacting through screened Coulomb potentials which are repulsive between particles…
We report an extensive Monte Carlo study of critical end point behaviour in a symmetrical binary fluid mixture. On the basis of general scaling arguments, singular behaviour is predicted in the diameter of the liquid-gas coexistence curve…
We consider a gas whose each particle is characterised by a pair $(x,v_x)$ with the position $x\in \mathbb R^d$ and the velocity $v_x\in \mathbb R^d_0= \mathbb R^d\setminus \{0\}$. We define Gibbs measures on the cone of vector-valued…
We extend the Gibbs conditioning principle to an abstract setting combining infinitely many linear equality constraints and non-linear inequality constraints, which need not be convex. A conditional large large deviation principle (LDP) is…
Using a minimal algebraic model for the thermodynamics of binary rod--polymer mixtures, we provide evidence for a quintuple phase equilibrium; an observation that seems to be at odds with the Gibbs phase rule for two-component systems. Our…
The Widom-Rowlinson model (or the Area-interaction model) is a Gibbs point process in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the formal Hamiltonian $H(\omega)=\text{Volume}(\cup_{x\in\omega} B_1(x))$, where $\omega$ is a locally finite configuration of points…
