We introduce a class of damage models on regular lattices with isotropic interactions, as e.g. quasistatic fiber bundles. The system starts intact with a surface-energy threshold required to break any cell sampled from an uncorrelated…
For $\Delta \ge 5$ and $q$ large as a function of $\Delta$, we give a detailed picture of the phase transition of the random cluster model on random $\Delta$-regular graphs. In particular, we determine the limiting distribution of the…

We report numerical simulations of two-dimensional $q$-state Potts models with emphasis on a new quantity for the computation of spatial correlation lengths. This quantity is the cluster-diameter distribution function $G_{diam}(x)$, which…

We use Monte Carlo simulations to measure the spin-spin correlation function in the disordered phase of two-dimensional $q$-state Potts models with $q=10,15$, and $20$ at the first-order transition point $\beta_t$. To extract the…
The fractal structure and scaling properties of a 2d slice of the 3d Ising model is studied using Monte Carlo techniques. The percolation transition of geometric spin (GS) clusters is found to occur at the Curie point, reflecting the…
The phase transition in the q-state Potts model with homogeneous ferromagnetic couplings is strongly first order for large q, while is rounded in the presence of quenched disorder. Here we study this phenomenon on different two-dimensional…
Due to Fortuin and Kastelyin the $q$ state Potts model has a representation as a sum over random graphs, generalizing the Potts model to arbitrary $q$ is based on this representation. A key element of the Random Cluster representation is…
Through Monte Carlo simulations we study two-dimensional Potts models with $q=4, 6$ and 8 states on Voronoi-Delaunay random lattice. In this study, we assume that the coupling factor $J$ varies with the distance $r$ between the first…
Recent theoretical studies have predicted the existence of caustics in many-body quantum dynamics, where they manifest as extended regions of enhanced probability density that obey temporal and spatial scaling relations. Focusing on the…
Recently, we argued [Chin. Phys. Lett. $39$, 080502 (2022)] that the Ising model simultaneously exhibits two upper critical dimensions $(d_c=4, d_p=6)$ in the Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) random-cluster representation. In this paper, we perform a…
We report numerical estimates of correlation lengths in 2D Potts models from the asymptotic decay of the cluster-diameter distribution. Using this observable we are able to verify theoretical predictions for the correlation length in the…
In this paper, we study the influence of the vortices on the fluctuations of $2d$ systems such as the Coulomb gas, the Villain model or the integer-valued Gaussian free field. In the case of the $2d$ Villain model, we prove that the…
Using information of the ground state topology and the damage spreading technique we show a Griffiths-like phase is present in the three-dimensional $\pm J$ Edwards-Anderson spin glass model. With spin-flipping dynamics damage spreads for…
