We prove the existence of macroscopic loops in the loop O(2) model with $\frac12\leq x^2\leq 1$ or, equivalently, delocalisation of the associated integer-valued Lipschitz function on the triangular lattice. This settles one side of the…
We present a numerical study of 2D random-bond Potts ferromagnets. The model is studied both below and above the critical value $Q_c=4$ which discriminates between second and first-order transitions in the pure system. Two geometries are…

We study the random-cluster model on trees and treelike graphs at low temperatures. This is a model of dependent percolation parametrized by an edge probability $p\in (0,1)$ and a clustering weight $q\in [1,\infty)$, generalizing…
In principle, the probability of configurations, determined by the system's partition function or wave function, encapsulates essential information about phases and phase transitions. Despite the exponentially large configuration space, we…
Let ${\mathbb{L}}$ be the $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice and let ${\mathbb{L}}_0$ be an $s$-dimensional sublattice, with $2 \leq s < d$. We consider a model of inhomogeneous bond percolation on ${\mathbb{L}}$ at densities $p$ and…

In the critical beta-splitting model of a random $n$-leaf rooted tree, clades are recursively split into sub-clades, and a clade of $m$ leaves is split into sub-clades containing $i$ and $m-i$ leaves with probabilities $\propto 1/(i(m-i))$.…
We investigate, both analytically and numerically, the phase diagram of three-dimensional Z(N) lattice gauge theories at finite temperature for N > 4. These models, in the strong coupling limit, are equivalent to a generalized version of…
We present extensive numerical simulations of a family of non-equilibrium Potts models with absorbing states that allows for a variety of scenarios, depending on the number of spin states and the range of the spin-spin interactions. These…
The emergence of collective oscillations and synchronization is a widespread phenomenon in complex systems. While widely studied in dynamical systems theory, this phenomenon is not well understood in the context of out-of-equilibrium phase…
We derive the scaling dimension associated with crossing bonds in the random-cluster representation of the two-dimensional Potts model, by means of a mapping on the Coulomb gas. The scaling field associated with crossing bonds appears to be…
We present a method for computing transition points of the random cluster model using a generalization of the Newman-Ziff algorithm, a celebrated technique in numerical percolation, to the random cluster model. The new method is…
We find the cross-over behavior for the spin-spin correlation function for the 2D Ising and 3-states Potts model with random bonds at the critical point. The procedure employed is the renormalisation approach of the perturbation series…

For any integers $d,q\ge 3$, we consider the $q$-state ferromagnetic Potts model with an external field on a sequence of expander graphs that converges to the $d$-regular tree $\mathtt{T}_d$ in the Benjamini-Schramm sense. We show that…
We study the critical behavior of the q-state Potts model with random ferromagnetic couplings. Working with the cluster representation the partition sum of the model in the large-q limit is dominated by a single graph, the fractal…
