We show that the Potts model on a graph can be approximated by a sequence of independent and identically distributed spins in terms of Wasserstein distance at high temperatures. We prove a similar result for the Curie--Weiss--Potts model on…
We study a one parameter family of random graph models that spans a continuum between traditional random graphs of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi type, where there is no underlying structure, and percolation models, where the possible edges are…
We consider random walks evolving on two models of connected and undirected graphs and study the exact large deviations of a local dynamical observable. We prove, in the thermodynamic limit, that this observable undergoes a first-order…

The hardcore model is one of the most classic and widely studied examples of undirected graphical models. Given a graph $G$, the hardcore model describes a Gibbs distribution of $\lambda$-weighted independent sets of $G$. In the last two…

We prove a long-standing conjecture on random-cluster models, namely that the critical point for such models with parameter $q\geq1$ on the square lattice is equal to the self-dual point $p_{sd}(q) = \sqrt q /(1+\sqrt q)$. This gives a…
We consider the equilibrium dynamics of Ising spin models with multi-spin interactions on sparse random graphs (Bethe lattices). Such models undergo a mean field glass transition upon increasing the graph connectivity or lowering the…
Using Monte Carlo simulations we study the phase ordering dynamics of a \textit{multi}-species system modeled via the prototype $q$-state Potts model. In such a \textit{multi}-species system, we identify a spin states or species as the…
