The partition function of the O(n) loop model on the honeycomb lattice is mapped to that of the O(n) loop model on the 3-12 lattice. Both models share the same operator content and thus critical exponents. The critical points are related…

An entire solution of the Allen-Cahn equation $\Delta u=F'(u)$, where $F$ is an even, bistable function, is called a $2k$-end solution if its nodal set is asymptotic to $2k$ half lines, and if along each of these half lines the function $u$…
