Critical behavior at an order/disorder phase transition has been a central object of interest in statistical physics. In the past century, techniques borrowed from many different fields of mathematics (Algebra, Combinatorics, Probability,…
The misanthrope process is a class of stochastic interacting particle systems, generalizing the simple exclusion process. It allows each site of the lattice to accommodate more than one particle. We consider a special case of the one…
The Lenz-Ising model has served for almost a century as a basis for understanding ferromagnetism, and has become a paradigmatic model for phase transitions in statistical mechanics. While retaining the Ising energy arguments, we use…
We study a system of interacting diffusions that models chemotaxis of biological cells or microorganisms (referred to as particles) in a chemical field that is dynamically modified through the collective contributions from the particles.…
Driven quantum systems coupled to an environment typically exhibit effectively thermal behavior with relaxational dynamics near criticality. However, a different qualitative behavior might be expected in the weakly dissipative limit due to…

We develop a new perturbative method for studying any steady states of quantum impurities, in or out of equilibrium. We show that steady-state averages are completely fixed by basic properties of the steady-state (Hershfield's) density…
We present an investigation of the sinh-cosh (SC) interaction model with twisted boundary conditions. We argue that, when unlike particles repel, the SC model may be usefully viewed as a Heisenberg-Ising fluid with moving Heisenberg-Ising…
The Ising model is widely regarded as the most studied model of spin-systems in statistical physics. The focus of this paper is its dynamic (stochastic) version, the Glauber dynamics, introduced in 1963 and by now the most popular means of…
We present a novel mechanism for thermalizing a system of particles in equilibrium and nonequilibrium situations, based on specifically modeling energy transfer at the boundaries via a microscopic collision process. We apply our method to…

This paper leads with a random polymer model in $\Z^2$ having long-range self-repulsive interactions. By comparison with a long range one-dimensional ferromagnetic Ising model we shown that the polymer models we considered here undergo a…
We consider the Ising model on $\mathbb Z\times \mathbb Z$ where on each horizontal line $\{(x,i), x\in \mathbb Z\}$, the interaction is given by a ferromagnetic Kac potential with coupling strength $J_\gamma(x,y)\sim \gamma J(\gamma…
