Quasiperiodic systems offer an appealing intermediate between long-range ordered and genuine disordered systems, with unusual critical properties. One-dimensional models that break the so-called self-dual symmetry usually display a mobility…

The omnipresent disorder in physical systems makes it imperative to investigate its effect on the spatial range of interactions for which system remains thermodynamically extensive. Previously known bounds on the statistical free energy for…
