We address the geometrical critical behavior of the two-dimensional Q-state Potts model in terms of the spin clusters (i.e., connected domains where the spin takes a constant value). These clusters are different from the usual…
The Potts conformal field theory is an analytic continuation in the central charge of conformal field theory describing the critical two-dimensional $Q$-state Potts model. Four-point functions of the Potts conformal field theory are…
Spinons are among the generic excitations in one-dimensional spin systems, they can be massless or massive. The quantitative description of massive spinons poses a considerable challenge in spite of various variational approaches. We show…
Our motivation in this paper is twofold. First, we study the geometry of a class of exploration sets, called exit sets, which are naturally associated with a 2D vector-valued GFF : $\phi : Z^2 \to R^N, N\geq 1$. We prove that, somewhat…
In this paper we study a continuum version of the Potts model. Particles are points in R^d, with a spin which may take S possible values, S being at least 3. Particles with different spins repel each other via a Kac pair potential. In mean…
We perform Monte Carlo simulations using the Wolff cluster algorithm of the q=2 (Ising), 3, 4 and q=10 Potts models on dynamical phi-cubed graphs of spherical topology with up to 5000 nodes. We find that the measured critical exponents are…
We formulate a new geometrical string on the euclidean lattice. It is possible to find such spin systems with local interaction which reproduce the same surface dynamics.In the three-dimensional case this spin system is a usual Ising…
We use Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the dynamical properties of the infinite range 10 states Potts glass. By analyzing the spin autocorrelation function for system sizes up to N=2560, we show that strong finite size effects are…
We present a numerical study of 2D random-bond Potts ferromagnets. The model is studied both below and above the critical value $Q_c=4$ which discriminates between second and first-order transitions in the pure system. Two geometries are…
We provide non-asymptotic $L^1$ bounds to the normal for four well-known models in statistical physics and particle systems in $\mathbb{Z}^d$; the ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor Ising model, the supercritical bond percolation model, the…
We study a set of exactly soluble spin models in one and two dimensions for any spin $S$. Its ground state, the excitation spectrum, quantum phase transition points, as well as dimensional crossover are determined.
Herein, we propose a site random cluster model by introducing an additional cluster weight in the partition function of the traditional site percolation. To simulate the model on a square lattice, we combine the color-assignation and the…
A spin system is studied, with simultaneous permutation-symmetric Potts and spin-rotation-symmetric clock interactions, in spatial dimensions d=2 and 3. The global phase diagram is calculated from the renormalizaton-group solution with the…
For a family of integer-valued height functions defined over the faces of planar graphs, we establish a relation between the probability of connection by level sets and the spin-spin correlations of the dual $O(2)$ symmetric spin models…
A wide variety of methods have been used to compute percolation thresholds. In lattice percolation, the most powerful of these methods consists of microcanonical simulations using the union-find algorithm to efficiently determine the…
We study the $q$-state Potts model on a square lattice with directed nearest-neighbor spin-spin interactions that are inherently non-reciprocal. Both equilibrium and non-equilibrium dynamics are investigated. Analytically, we demonstrate…
We consider spin-spin correlation functions for spins along a row, $R_n = \langle \sigma_{0,0}\sigma_{n,0}\rangle$, in the two-dimensional Ising model. We discuss a method for calculating general-$n$ expressions for coefficients in…
Hyperbolic lattices interpolate between finite-dimensional lattices and Bethe lattices and are interesting in their own right with ordinary percolation exhibiting not one, but two, phase transitions. We study four constraint percolation…
Models can be simple for different reasons: because they yield a simple and computationally efficient interpretation of a generic dataset (e.g. in terms of pairwise dependences) - as in statistical learning - or because they capture the…
We discuss the critical behaviour of 2D Ising and q-states Potts models coupled by their energy density. We found new tricritical points. The procedure employed is the renormalisation approach of the perturbations series around conformal…
