In this work, some classical results of the pfaffian theory of the dimer model based on the work of Kasteleyn, Fisher and Temperley are introduced in a fermionic framework. Then we shall detail the bosonic formulation of the model {\it via}…
This note relates topics in statistical mechanics, graph theory and combinatorics, lattice quantum field theory, super quantum mechanics and string theory. We give a precise relation between the dimer model on a graph embedded on a torus…
The Faddeev-Volkov solution of the star-triangle relation is connected with the modular double of the quantum group U_q(sl_2). It defines an Ising-type lattice model with positive Boltzmann weights where the spin variables take continuous…
We study the dilute $A_2^{(2)}$ loop models on the geometry of a strip of width $N$. Two families of boundary conditions are known to satisfy the boundary Yang-Baxter equation. Fixing the boundary condition on the two ends of the strip…
We consider fermionic fully-packed loop and quantum dimer models which serve as effective low-energy models for strongly correlated fermions on a checkerboard lattice at half and quarter filling, respectively. We identify a large number of…
The dimer model is the study of random dimer covers (perfect matchings) of a graph. A double-dimer configuration on a graph $G$ is a union of two dimer covers of $G$. We introduce quaternion weights in the dimer model and show how they can…
We extend our recent study on the duality between stringy higher spin theories and free CFTs in the $SU(N)$ adjoint representation to other matrix models namely the free $SO(N)$ and $Sp(N)$ adjoint models as well as the free $U(N)\times…
Open fermion systems with energy-independent bilinear coupling to a fermionic environment have been shown to obey a general duality relation [Phys. Rev. B 93, 81411 (2016)] which allows for a drastic simplification of time-evolution…
We consider two different versions of the double dimer model on a planar domain, where we either fold a single dimer cover on a symmetric domain onto itself across the line of symmetry, or we superimpose two independent dimer covers on two,…
We study the full set of planar Green's functions for a two-matrix model using the language of functions of non-commuting variables. Both the standard Schwinger-Dyson equations and equations determining connected Green's functions can be…
We propose a random matrix model as a representation for $D=1$ open strings. We show that the model is equivalent to $N$ fermions with spin in a central potential that also includes a long-range ferromagnetic interaction between the…
We define and study a recurrence relation in ${\mathbb Z}^3$, called the hexahedron recurrence, which is similar to the octahedron recurrence (Hirota bilinear difference equation) and cube recurrence (Miwa equation). Like these examples,…
The loop equation for the complex one-matrix model with a multi-cut structure is derived and solved in the planar limit. An iterative scheme for higher genus contributions to the free energy and the multi-loop correlators is presented for…
We apply the Grassmannian representation of the dimer model, an equivalent approach to Kasteleyn's solution to the close-packed dimer problem, to calculate the connection probabilities for the double-dimer model with wired/free/wired/free…
We derive the Lax connection of the free fermion model on a lattice starting from the fermionic formulation of Bazhanov-Stroganov's three-parameter elliptic parametrization for the R-operator. It results in the Yang-Baxter and decorated…
We study various statistical properties of the double-dimer model, a generalization of the dimer model, on rectangular domains of the square lattice. We take advantage of the Grassmannian representation of the dimer model, first to…
We consider dimer model on a hexagonal lattice. This model can be seen as a "pile of cubes in the box". The energy of configuration is given by the volume of the pile and the partition function is computed by the classical MacMahon formula…
We study a system of nanowires, i.e., the theory of 1+1 dimensional massless fermions interacting with 3+1 dimensional U(1) gauge fields. When allowing for non-zero chemical potentials, this system has a complex action problem in the…
The free energy of a field theory can be considered as a functional of the free correlation function. As such it obeys a nonlinear functional differential equation which can be turned into a recursion relation. This is solved order by order…
A quasiclassical correspondent for the fermion degrees of freedom is obtained by using a time-dependent variational principle with Grassmann coherent states as trial functions. In the real parametrization provided by the canonical…
