It is well-known that the partition function of a classical spin model can be mapped to a quantum entangled state where some properties on one side can be used to find new properties on the other side. However, the consequences of the…
This is a sequel to papers by the last two authors making the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence and isomonodromy explicit. For the degenerate fifth Painlev\'e equation, the moduli spaces for connections and for monodromy are explicitly…
Inspired by the program of discrete holography, we show that Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity on a hyperbolic tiling of Euclidean AdS$_2$ gives rise to an Ising model on the dual lattice, subject to a topological constraint. The Ising model…
Motivated by recent interest in 2+1 dimensional quantum dimer models, we revisit Fisher's mapping of two dimensional Ising models to hardcore dimer models. First, we note that the symmetry breaking transition of the ferromagetic Ising model…
The raise of the symmetry breaking mechanism by Landau[1] is a landmark in the studies of phase transitions. The Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition[2-3] and the fractional quantum Hall effect[4], however, are believed to be induced by…
String equations related to 2D gravity seem to provide, quite naturally and systematically, integrable kernels, in the sense of Its-Izergin-Korepin and Slavnov. Some of these kernels (besides the "classical" examples of Airy and Pearcey)…
In this communication we report the existence of a dynamic ``spin-reversal'' transition in an Ising system perturbed by a pulsed external magnetic field. The transition is achieved by tuning the strength ($h_p$) and/or the duration ($\Delta…
The two-dimensional random-bond Ising model is numerically studied on long strips by transfer-matrix methods. It is shown that the rate of decay of correlations at criticality, as derived from averages of the two largest Lyapunov exponents…
Topologically ordered quantum systems have robust physical properties, such as quasiparticle statistics and ground-state degeneracy, which do not depend on the microscopic details of the Hamiltonian. We consider topological phase…
We exploit an interpretation of gravity as the symmetry broken phase of a de Sitter gauge theory to construct new solutions to the first order field equations. The new solutions are constructed by performing large $Spin(4,1)$ gauge…
We study a generalization of the two-dimensional transverse-field Ising model, combining both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic two-body interactions, that hosts exact global and local Z2 gauge symmetries. Using exact diagonalization and…
We study the total variation (TV) distance between the laws of the 2D Ising/FK-Ising model in a box of side-length $N$ with and without an i.i.d.\ Gaussian external field with variance $\epsilon^2$. Letting the external field strength…
We consider three extensions of the standard 2D Ising model with Glauber dynamics on a finite torus at low temperature. The first model is an anisotropic version, where the interaction energy takes different values on vertical and on…
A review is given on some recent developments in the theory of the Ising model in a random field. This model is a good representation of a large number of impure materials. After a short repetition of earlier arguments, which prove the…
We propose multidimensional versions of the Painlev\'e VI equation and its degenerations. These field theories are related to the isomonodromy problems of flat holomorphic infinite rank bundles over elliptic curves and take the form of…
We report the conjectures on the three-dimensional (3D) Ising model on simple orthorhombic lattices, together with the details of calculations for a putative exact solution. Two conjectures, an additional rotation in the fourth curled-up…
In this paper we analytically study the recurrence equations of an Ising model with three competing interactions on a Cayley tree of order three. We exactly describe paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases of the Ising model. We obtain some…
Inspired by Fr\"{o}hlich-Spencer and subsequent authors who introduced the notion of contour for long-range systems, we provide a definition of contour and a direct proof for the phase transition for ferromagnetic long-range Ising models on…
A systematic Hamiltonian formulation of the Einstein-Cartan system, based on the Hilbert-Palatini action with the Barbero-Immirzi and cosmological constants, is performed using the traditional ADM decomposition and without fixing the time…
At zero temperature, the classical antiferromagnetic Ising model on the pyrochlore lattice is a spin disorder phase of the critical spin correlation. It is a deconfined phase in that the binding energy of the monopole-anti-monopole pair is…
