This paper completes the comprehensive study of the dimer model on infinite minimal graphs with Fock's weights [arXiv:1503.00289] initiated in [arXiv:2007.14699]: the latter article dealt with the elliptic case, i.e., models whose…

Random domino tilings of the Aztec diamond shape exhibit interesting features and some of the statistical properties seen in random matrix theory. As a statistical mechanical model it can be thought of as a dimer model or as a certain…

We consider uniform random domino tilings of the restricted Aztec diamond which is obtained by cutting off an upper triangular part of the Aztec diamond by a horizontal line. The restriction line asymptotically touches the arctic circle…

We show there is a last path at the rough smooth boundary of the two-periodic Aztec diamond with parameter $a\in (0,1)$ that, suitably rescaled, converges to the Airy process, under the condition that $a$ tends to zero as the size of the…

In earlier work, Jockusch, Propp, and Shor proved a theorem describing the limiting shape of the boundary between the uniformly tiled corners of a random tiling of an Aztec diamond and the more unpredictable `temperate zone' in the interior…

We compare two methods for analysing periodic dimer models. These are the matrix-valued orthogonal polynomials approach due to Duits and one of the authors, and the Wiener-Hopf approach due to Berggren and Duits. We establish their…

We consider the dimer model on the Aztec diamond with Fock's weights, which is gauge equivalent to the model with any choice of positive weight function. We prove an explicit, compact formula for the inverse Kasteleyn matrix, thus extending…

This paper provides a comprehensive study of the dimer model on infinite minimal graphs with Fock's elliptic weights [arXiv:1503.00289]. Specific instances of such models were studied in [arXiv:052711, arXiv:1612.09082, arXiv1801.00207]; we…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the probability that, if one chooses a domino tiling of a large Aztec diamond at random according to the uniform distribution on such tilings, the tiling will contain a domino covering a given pair of…

We study random domino tilings of the Aztec diamond with different weights for horizontal and vertical dominoes. A domino tiling of an Aztec diamond can also be described by a particle system which is a determinantal process. We give a…

We introduce a multi-parameter family of random edge weights on the Aztec diamond graph, given by certain Gamma variables, and prove several results about the corresponding random dimer measures. Firstly, we show there is no phase…

We analyze height fluctuations in Aztec diamond dimer models with nearly arbitrary periodic edge weights. We show that the centered height function approximates the sum of two independent components: a Gaussian free field on the multiply…

The thermodynamic limit is foundational to statistical mechanics, underlying our understanding of many-body phases. It assumes that, as the system size grows infinitely at fixed density of particles, unambiguous macroscopic phases emerge…

In this article we study domino tilings of a family of finite regions called Aztec diamonds. Every such tiling determines a partition of the Aztec diamond into five sub-regions; in the four outer sub-regions, every tile lines up with nearby…

In this paper we study the connection between dimers and Harnack curves discovered in math-ph/0311005. We prove that every Harnack curve arises as a spectral curve of some dimer model. We also prove that the space of Harnack curve of given…

We prove that the, appropriately rescaled, boundary of the north polar region in the Aztec diamond converges to the Airy process. The proof uses certain determinantal point processes given by the extended Krawtchouk kernel. We also prove a…

We obtain precise asymptotics for the weighted number of domino tilings of an L-shaped subset of the Aztec diamond, obtained by removing an approximate rectangle in a corner of the Aztec diamond. By tuning the size of the removed corner, we…

We provide a new description of the scaling limit of dimer fluctuations in homogeneous Aztec diamonds via the intrinsic conformal structure of a space-like maximal surface in the three-dimensional Minkowski space $\mathbb{R}^{2,1}$. This…
