We study "random surfaces," which are random real (or integer) valued functions on Z^d. The laws are determined by convex, nearest neighbor, difference potentials that are invariant under translation by a full-rank sublattice L of Z^d; they…

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…

We study the $u$-Gibbs measures of a certain class of uniformly hyperbolic skew products on $\mathbb{T}^4$. These systems have a strong unstable and a weak unstable directions. We show that $C^r$-dense and $C^2$-open in this set every…

Graph-limit theory focuses on the convergence of sequences of graphs when the number of nodes becomes arbitrarily large. This framework defines a continuous version of graphs allowing for the study of dynamical systems on very large graphs,…

We consider a canonical ensemble of dynamical triangulations of a 2-dimensional sphere with a hole where the number $N$ of triangles is fixed. The Gibbs factor is $\exp (-\mu \sum \deg v)$ where $\deg v$ is the degree of the vertex $v$ in…

On a finite graph, there is a natural family of Boltzmann probability measures on cycle-rooted spanning forests, parametrized by weights on cycles. For a certain subclass of those weights, we construct Gibbs measures in infinite volume, as…

We determine the possible scaling limits in the quantum central limit theorem with respect to the Gibbs state, for a growing distance-regular graph that has so-called classical parameters with base unequal to one. We also describe…

We study criteria which ensure that Gibbs states (often also called generalized vacuum states) on distance-regular graphs are positive. Our main criterion assumes that the graph can be embedded into a growing family of distance-regular…

For a fixed topological Markov shift, we consider measure-preserving dynamical systems of Gibbs measures for 2-locally constant functions on the shift. We also consider isomorphisms between two such systems. We study the set of all…

In the present paper, the Ising model with mixed spin-(1,1/2) is considered on the second order Cayley tree. A construction of splitting Gibbs measures corresponding the model is given which allows to establish the existence of the phase…

We consider models with nearest-neighbor interactions and with the set $[0,1]$ of spin values, on a Cayley tree of order $k\geq 1$. We study periodic Gibbs measures of the model with period two. For $k=1$ we show that there is no any…

Mathematical models in equilibrium statistical mechanics describe physical systems with many particles interacting with an external force and with one another. Gibbs measure is a fundamental concept in this theory. In existing literature…

We prove that there is only one translation-invariant Gibbsian point process w.r.t. to a chosen interaction if any of them satisfies a certain bound related to concentration-of-measure. This concentration-of-measure bound is e.g. fulfilled…

We provide an existence theory for gradient Gibbs measures for Z-valued spin models on regular trees which are not invariant under translations of the tree, assuming only summability of the transfer operator. The gradient states we obtain…
