An ansatz applied to the two-dimensional Ising model in an external magnetic field h gives rise to an exactly soluble model. The singularity in the magnetization found by Onsager does not survive the presence of the external magnetic field…
I published an interview of Leo Breiman in Statistical Science [Olshen (2001)], and also the solution to a problem concerning almost sure convergence of binary tree-structured estimators in regression [Olshen (2007)]. The former summarized…
We consider Ising-spin systems starting from an initial Gibbs measure $\nu$ and evolving under a spin-flip dynamics towards a reversible Gibbs measure $\mu\not=\nu$. Both $\nu$ and $\mu$ are assumed to have a finite-range interaction. We…
The Ising model, originally developed as a spin-glass model for ferromagnetic elements, has gained popularity as a network-based model for capturing dependencies in agents' outputs. Its increasing adoption in healthcare and the social…

In this paper, we study the problem of finding the global minima of a given function. Specifically, we consider complicated functions with numerous local minima, as is often the case for real-world data mining losses. We do so by applying a…
We provide Ising formulations for many NP-complete and NP-hard problems, including all of Karp's 21 NP-complete problems. This collects and extends mappings to the Ising model from partitioning, covering and satisfiability. In each case,…
When Lenz proposed a simple model for phase transitions in magnetism, he couldn't have imagined that the "Ising model" was to become a jewel in field of equilibrium statistical mechanics. Its role spans the spectrum, from a good pedagogical…
Using the framework of Nambu's generalised mechanics, we obtain a new description of constrained Hamiltonian dynamics, involving the introduction of another degree of freedom in phase space, and the necessity of defining the action integral…
We study the 3D Ising model in the infinite volume limit $N_{x,y,z}\to\infty$ by means of numerical simulations. We determine $T_c$ as well as the critical exponents $\beta,\gamma$ and $\nu$, based on finite-size scaling and histogram…
It is shown that several Hamiltonian systems possessing dynamical or hidden symmetries can be realized within the framework of Nambu's generalized mechanics. Among such systems are the SU(n)-isotropic harmonic oscillator and the…
The dynamic critical exponent and the frequency and wave-vector dependent susceptibility of the kinetic Ising model with Glauber dynamics on an alternating isotopic chain are examined. The analysis provides to our knowledge the first…

Yang-Mills theories supplemented by an additional coordinate constraint, which is solved and substituted in the original Lagrangian, provide examples of the so called Nambu models, in the case where such constraints arise from spontaneous…
We present several non-trivial examples of the three-dimensional quantum Nambu bracket which involve square matrices or three-index objects. Our examples satisfy two fundamental properties of the classical Nambu bracket: they are…
An analysis is presented of the phase transition of the quantum Ising model with transverse field on the d-dimensional hypercubic lattice. It is shown that there is a unique sharp transition. The value of the critical point is calculated…
Verification of binary neural network (BNN) robustness is NP-hard, as it can be formulated as a combinatorial search for an adversarial perturbation that induces misclassification. Exact verification methods therefore scale poorly with…
The Ishango Bone is a prehistoric artifact dated to approximately 20,000 years ago, discovered near the Semliki River in what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo, and has been the subject of scholarly debate for decades. The artifact…
