We study the equivalence of ensembles for stationary measures of interacting particle systems with two conserved quantities and unbounded local state space. The main motivation is a condensation transition in the zero-range process which…
We study the thermodynamic formalism for generalized Gibbs measures, such as renormalization group transformations of Gibbs measures or joint measures of disordered spin systems. We first show existence of the relative entropy density and…
We study Gibbsian models of unbounded integer-valued spins on trees which possess a symmetry under height-shift. We develop a theory relating boundary laws to gradient Gibbs measures, which applies also in cases where the corresponding…
We study a class of dynamical systems generated by random substitutions, which contains both intrinsically ergodic systems and instances with several measures of maximal entropy. In this class, we show that the measures of maximal entropy…
We present a modified Gibbs sampler for general state spaces. We establish that this modification can lead to substantial gains in statistical efficiency while maintaining the overall quality of convergence. We illustrate our results in two…
We prove that the Gibbs measures $\rho$ for a class of Hamiltonian equations written $\partial_t u = J (-\triangle u + V'(|u|^2)u)$ on the real line are invariant under the flow of this equation in the sense that there exist random…
This paper deals with the problem of perfect sampling from a Gibbs measure with infinite range interactions. We present some sufficient conditions for the extinction of processes which are like supermartingales when large values are taken.…
We prove that for every locally stable and tempered pair potential $\phi$ with bounded range, there exists a unique infinite-volume Gibbs point process on $\mathbb{R}^d$ for every activity $\lambda < (e^{L} \hat{C}_{\phi})^{-1}$, where $L$…
We study measures on the configuration spaces of two type particles. Gibbs measures on the such spaces are described. Main properties of corresponding relative energies densities and correlation functions are considered. In particular, we…
We prove that five characterizations of Gibbs measures for H\"{o}lder potentials on topologically mixing subshifts of finite type are equivalent: the Jacobian condition, the classical cylinder-based Gibbs property, the eigenmeasure of the…
We investigate permutation-invariant continuous variable quantum states and their covariance matrices. We provide a complete characterization of the latter with respect to permutation-invariance, exchangeability and representing convex…
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…
We consider equilibrium states (that is, shift-invariant Gibbs measures) on the configuration space $S^{\mathbb{Z}^d}$ where $d\geq 1$ and $S$ is a finite set. We prove that if an equilibrium state for a shift-invariant uniformly summable…
It is known that a linear hamiltonian system has too many invariant measures, thus the problem of convergence to Gibbs measure has no sense. We consider linear hamiltonian systems of arbitrary finite dimension and prove that, under the…
Here we propose an experimental set-up in which it is possible to measure the entanglement of a two-mode Gaussian state, be it pure or mixed, using only simple linear optical devices. After a proper unitary manipulation of the two-mode…
We study a stationary Gibbs particle process with deterministically bounded particles on Euclidean space defined in terms of an activity parameter and non-negative interaction potentials of finite range. Using disagreement percolation we…
We present a new approach to the analysis of entanglement in smooth bipartite continuous-variable states. One or both parties perform projective filterings via preliminary measurements to determine whether the system is located in some…
The Higgs mechanism gives mass to Yang-Mills gauge bosons. According to the conventional wisdom, this happens through the spontaneous breaking of gauge symmetry. Yet, gauge symmetries merely reflect a redundancy in the state description and…
We prove the existence and the invariance of a Gibbs measure associated to the defocusing sub-quintic Nonlinear Schroedinger equations on the disc of the plane $\R^2$. We also prove an estimate giving some intuition to what may happen in 3…
We present a novel approach to establishing the variational principle for Gibbs and generalized (weak and almost) Gibbs states. Limitations of a thermodynamical formalism for generalized Gibbs states will be discussed. A new class of…
