We study how physical measures vary with the underlying dynamics in the open class of $C^r$, $r>1$, strong partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms for which the central Lyapunov exponents of every Gibbs $u$-state is positive. If transitive,…
We consider the Ising model on a general tree under various boundary conditions: all plus, free and spin-glass. In each case, we determine when the root is influenced by the boundary values in the limit as the boundary recedes to infinity.…
Generalized Labeled Multi-Bernoulli (GLMB) densities arise in a host of multi-object system applications analogous to Gaussians in single-object filtering. However, computing the GLMB filtering density requires solving NP-hard problems. To…
We consider the Solid-On-Solid model interacting with a wall, which is the statistical mechanics model associated with the integer-valued field $(\phi(x))_{x\in \mathbb Z^2}$, and the energy functional $$V(\phi)=\beta \sum_{x\sim…
In this paper, we study the weak compactness of the set of conformal metrics in any Riemann surface without boundary whose Calabi energy and area are uniformly bounded. We prove that for any sequence of such metrics, there alwasy exists a…
In this article, we study the extremal processes of branching Brownian motions conditioned on having an unusually large maximum. The limiting point measures form a one-parameter family and are the decoration point measures in the extremal…
It is known that a linear hamiltonian system has too many invariant measures, thus the problem of convergence to Gibbs measure has no sense. We consider linear hamiltonian systems of arbitrary finite dimension and prove that, under the…
In this paper, we show that Gibbs measures on self-conformal sets generated by a $C^{1+\alpha}$ conformal IFS on $\mathbb{R}^d$ satisfying the OSC are exponentially mixing. We exploit this to obtain essentially sharp asymptotic counting…
In this paper, we introduce a family of observables for the dimer model on a bi-periodic bipartite planar graph, called pattern density fields. We study the scaling limit of these objects for liquid and gaseous Gibbs measures of the dimer…
We consider the sampling problem from a composite distribution whose potential (negative log density) is $\sum_{i=1}^n f_i(x_i)+\sum_{j=1}^m g_j(y_j)+\sum_{i=1}^n\sum_{j=1}^m\frac{\sigma_{ij}}{2\eta} \Vert x_i-y_j \Vert^2_2$ where each of…
The local physical properties of an isolated quantum statistical system in the stationary state reached long after a quench are generically described by the Gibbs ensemble, which involves only its Hamiltonian and the temperature as a…
Gibbs sampling is a common procedure used to fit finite mixture models. However, it is known to be slow to converge when exploring correlated regions of a parameter space and so blocking correlated parameters is sometimes implemented in…
This paper seeks a quantitative comparison between the curves in the KPZ line ensemble [CH16] and a standard Brownian bridge under the $t^{1/3}$ vertical and $t^{2/3}$ horizontal scaling. The estimate we obtained is parallel to the one…
We give the first example of a smooth family of real and complex maps having sensitive dependence of geometric Gibbs states at positive temperature. This family consists of quadratic-like maps that are non-uniformly hyperbolic in a strong…
Recoverable systems provide coarse models of data storage on the two-dimensional square lattice, where each site reconstructs its value from neighboring sites according to a specified local rule. To study the typical behavior of recoverable…
A finitely-additive measure $\lambda $ on an infinite-dimensional real Hilbert space $E$ which is invariant with respect to shifts and orthogonal mappings has been defined. This measure can be considered as the analog of the Lebesgue…
This thesis is a study of large sets of unit vectors in $\cx^n$ such that the absolute value of their standard inner products takes on only a small number of values. We begin with bounds: what is the maximal size of a set of lines with only…
We prove that nonlinear Gibbs measures can be obtained from the corresponding many-body, grand-canonical, quantum Gibbs states, in a mean-field limit where the temperature T diverges and the interaction behaves as 1/T. We proceed by…
We consider the plus-phase of the two-dimensional Ising model below the critical temperature. In $1989$ Schonmann proved that the projection of this measure onto a one-dimensional line is not a Gibbs measure. After many years of continued…
We prove that five characterizations of Gibbs measures for H\"{o}lder potentials on topologically mixing subshifts of finite type are equivalent: the Jacobian condition, the classical cylinder-based Gibbs property, the eigenmeasure of the…
