We develop a new framework to prove the mixing or relaxation time for the Glauber dynamics on spin systems with unbounded degree. It works for general spin systems including both $2$-spin and multi-spin systems. As applications for this…
We study zero-temperature Glauber dynamics on \Z^d, which is a dynamic version of the Ising model of ferromagnetism. Spins are initially chosen according to a Bernoulli distribution with density p, and then the states are continuously (and…
How a system initially at infinite temperature responds when suddenly placed at finite temperatures is a way to check the existence of phase transitions. It has been shown in [R. da Silva, IJMPC 2023] that phase transitions are imprinted in…
A fluid composed of two molecular species may undergo phase segregation via spinodal decomposition. However, if the two molecular species can interconvert, e.g. change their chirality, then a phenomenon of phase amplification, which has not…
We use zero-temperature Glauber dynamics to study hysteresis in the random-field Ising model on directed random graphs. The critical behavior of the model depends on the connectivity $z$ of the graph rather differently from that on…
We study the metastability of the ferromagnetic Ising model on a random $r$-regular graph in the zero temperature limit. We prove that in the presence of a small positive external field the time that it takes to go from the all minus state…
Using Monte Carlo simulations we study cooling-rate effects in a three-dimensional Ising model with four-spin interaction. During coarsening, this model develops growing energy barriers which at low temperature lead to very slow dynamics.…
We study Glauber dynamics for the low temperature $(2+1)$D Solid-On-Solid model on a box of side-length $n$ with a floor at height $0$ (inducing entropic repulsion) and a competing bulk external field $\lambda$ pointing down (the prewetting…
This work is devoted to an in-depth analysis of arbitrary temperature protocols applied to the ferromagnetic Glauber-Ising chain launched from a disordered initial state and evolving in the low-temperature scaling regime. We focus our study…
We introduce and analyze a natural class of nonlinear dynamics for spin systems such as the Ising model. This class of dynamics is based on the framework of mass action kinetics, which models the evolution of systems of entities under…
The dynamical behaviour of many-body systems is often richer than what can be anticipated from their static properties. Here we show that in closed quantum systems this becomes evident by considering time-integrated observables as order…
We consider the rate of transition for a particle between two metastable states coupled to a thermal environment for various magnitudes of the coupling strength, using the recently proposed infrequent metadynamics approach (Tiwary and…
We investigate the mixing properties of a finite Markov chain in random environment defined as a mixture of a deterministic chain and a chain whose state space has been permuted uniformly at random. This work is the counterpart of a…
We prove that all the translation invariant Gibbs states of the Ising model are a linear combination of the pure phases $\mu^+,\mu^-$ in the phase transition regime. This implies that the average magnetization is continuous in the phase…
Based on the obtained exact results we systematically study the quench dynamics of a one-dimensional spin-1/2 transverse field Ising model with zero- and finite-temperature initial states. We focus on the magnetization of the system after a…
The effect of initial spin configurations on zero-temperature Glauber spin dynamics in complex networks is investigated. In a system in which the initial spins are defined by centrality measures at the vertices of a network, a variety of…
We investigate the global persistence properties of critical systems relaxing from an initial state with non-vanishing value of the order parameter (e.g., the magnetization in the Ising model). The persistence probability of the global…
Understanding how local perturbations induce the transient dynamics of a network of coupled units is essential to control and operate such systems. Often a perturbation initiated in one unit spreads to other units whose dynamical state they…
Let $\gS=(V,E)$ be a finite, $d$-regular bipartite graph. For any $\lambda>0$ let $\pi_\lambda$ be the probability measure on the independent sets of $\gS$ in which the set $I$ is chosen with probability proportional to $\lambda^{|I|}$…
Using Monte Carlo simulations we show that the three-dimensional Ising model with four-spin (plaquette) interactions has some characteristic glassy features. The model dynamically generates diverging energy barriers, which give rise to slow…
