The infinite-volume limit behavior of the 2d Ising model under possibly strong random boundary conditions is studied. The model exhibits chaotic size-dependence at low temperatures and we prove that the `+' and `-' phases are the only…
Dobrushin (1972) showed that the interface of a 3D Ising model with minus boundary conditions above the $xy$-plane and plus below is rigid (has $O(1)$-fluctuations) at every sufficiently low temperature. Since then, basic features of this…
We extend proofs of non-Gibbsianness of decimated Gibbs measures at low temperatures to include long-range, as well as vector-spin interactions. Our main tools consist in a two-dimensional use of ``Equivalence of boundary conditions'' in…
We review what is known about the structure of the set of weak limiting states of the Ising and Potts models at low enough temperature, and in particular we prove that the mixture $\frac12(\mu^\pm+\mu^\mp)$ of two reflection-symmetric…
This paper contains three types of results: 1. the construction of ground state solutions for a long-range Ising model whose interfaces stay at a bounded distance from any given hyperplane, 2. the construction of nonlocal minimal surfaces…
We provide a framework to study the interfaces imposed by Dobrushin boundary conditions on the half-plane version of the Ising model on random triangulations with spins on vertices. Using the combinatorial solution by Albenque, M\'enard and…
This paper address the problem of identifying pairs of interacting sites from a finite sample of independent realizations of the Ising model. We consider Ising models in a infinite countable set of sites under Dobrushin uniqueness…
We prove that in dimension $d\leq 2$ translation covariant Gibbs states describing rigid interfaces in a disordered solid-on-solid (SOS) cannot exist for any value of the temperature, in contrast to the situation in $d\geq 3$. The prove…
We study the collective behavior of an Ising system on a small-world network with the interaction $J(r) \propto r^{-\alpha}$, where $r$ represents the Euclidean distance between two nodes. In the case of $\alpha = 0$ corresponding to the…
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 consider polynomial long-range Ising models in one dimension, with ferromagnetic pair interactions decaying with power $2-\alpha$ (for $0 \leq \alpha < 1$), and prepared with randomly chosen boundary conditions. We show that at low…
We study the homogeneous nearest-neighbor Ising ferromagnet on the right half plane with a Dobrushin type boundary condition --- say plus on the top part of the boundary and minus on the bottom. For sufficiently low temperature $T$, we…
Non-Gibbsian stationary states occur in dissipative non-equilibrium systems. They are closely connected with the lack of detailed balance and the absence of a fluctuation-dissipation theorem. These states exhibit spatial correlations that…
Dynamics under which a system of Ising spins relaxes to a stationary state with Bolzmann-Gibbs measure and which do not fulfil the condition of detailed balance are irreversible and asymmetric. We revisit the problem of the determination of…
We consider the long-range random field Ising model in dimension $d = 1, 2$, whereas the long-range interaction is of the form $J_{xy} = |x-y|^{-\alpha}$ with $1< \alpha < 3/2$ for $d=1$ and with $2 < \alpha \leq 3$ for $d = 2$. Our main…
Dyson [Commun. Math. Phys. 12, 91 (1969)] rigorously proved the existence of a phase transition in the one-dimensional Ising model with long-range interactions of the form $r^{-\alpha}$ for $1 < \alpha < 2$. In the present study, we extend…
We study the nonequilibrium properties of directed Ising models with non conserved dynamics, in which each spin is influenced by only a subset of its nearest neighbours. We treat the following models: (i) the one-dimensional chain; (ii) the…
We study the ground state of a $d$--dimensional Ising model with both long range (dipole--like) and nearest neighbor ferromagnetic (FM) interactions. The long range interaction is equal to $r^{-p}$, $p>d$, while the FM interaction has…
Two conditions are derived for Ising models to show non-universal critical behaviour, namely conditions concerning 1) logarithmic singularity of the specific heat and 2) degeneracy of the ground state. These conditions are satisfied with…
In this paper, we study perturbations of the $d$-dimensional Ising model for $d\geq 2$, including long range ones to which the Pirogov-Sinai theory is not applicable. We show that the uniqueness of the equilibrium state of the Ising model…
