A method to treat a N-component percolation model as effective one component model is presented by introducing a scaled control variable $p_{+}$. In Monte Carlo simulations on $16^{3}$, $32^{3}$, $64^{3}$ and $128^{3}$ simple cubic lattices…
We develop techniques to study the phase transition for planar Gaussian percolation models that are not (necessarily) positively correlated. These models lack the property of positive associations (also known as the `FKG inequality'), and…
We study the problem of a Brownian particle diffusing in finite dimensions in a potential given by $\psi= \phi^2/2$ where $\phi$ is Gaussian random field. Exact results for the diffusion constant in the high temperature phase are given in…
This review discusses a paradigm that has become of increasing importance in the theory of quantum phase transitions; namely, the coupling of the order-parameter fluctuations to other soft modes, and the resulting impossibility of…
Subsystem symmetry has emerged as a powerful organizing principle for unconventional quantum phases of matter, most prominently fracton topological orders. Here, we focus on a special subclass of such symmetries, known as higher-form…
We investigate the random loop model on the $d$-ary tree. For $d \geq 3$, we establish a (locally) sharp phase transition for the existence of infinite loops. Moreover, we derive rigorous bounds that in principle allow to determine the…
With combined hopping parameter and strong coupling expansions, we calculate a dimensionally reduced Polyakov-loop effective theory valid for heavy quarks at nonzero temperature and arbitrary chemical potential. We numerically compute the…
We establish that the phase transition for infinite cycles in the random stirring model on an infinite regular tree of high degree is sharp. That is, we prove that there exists d_0 such that, for any d \geq d_0, the set of parameter values…
We consider a model in which positive and negative particles with equal densities diffuse in an asymmetric, CP invariant way on a ring. The positive particles hop clockwise, the negative counter-clockwise and oppositely-charged adjacent…
We review recent work on continuous quantum phase transitions in impurity models, both with fermionic and bosonic baths - these transitions are interesting realizations of boundary critical phenomena at zero temperature. The models with…
We study the giant component problem slightly above the critical regime for percolation on Poissonian random graphs in the scale-free regime, where the vertex weights and degrees have a diverging second moment. Critical percolation on…
We consider percolation in a multiscale Boolean model. This model is defined as the union of scaled independent copies of a given Boolean model. The scale factor of the $n^{\textrm{th}}$ copy is $\rho^{-n}$. We prove, under optimal…
We investigate the phase transition in a non-planar correlated percolation model with long-range dependence, obtained by considering level sets of a Gaussian free field with mass above a given height $h$. The dependence present in the model…
We explore the concept of scaling invariance in a type of dynamical systems that undergo a transition from order (regularity) to disorder (chaos). The systems are described by a two-dimensional, nonlinear mapping that preserves the area in…
Quantum phase transitions (QPTs) in the spin-boson model with/without the rotating-wave approximation (RWA) are systematically investigated through variational calculations using a sub-Ohmic bath with high spectral density. Four cases…

We prove absence of ground states in the infrared-divergent spin boson model at large coupling. Our key argument reduces the proof to verifying long range order in the dual one-dimensional continuum Ising model, i.e., to showing that the…
We investigate the real-time dynamics of the sub-Ohmic spin-boson model across a broad range of coupling strengths, using the numerically exact inchworm quantum Monte Carlo algorithm. From short- and intermediate-time dynamics starting from…
We introduce a natural "massive" version of the Brownian loop soup of Lawler and Werner which displays conformal covariance and exponential decay. We show that this massive Brownian loop soup arises as the near-critical scaling limit of a…
