On a finite graph, there is a natural family of Boltzmann probability measures on cycle-rooted spanning forests, parametrized by weights on cycles. For a certain subclass of those weights, we construct Gibbs measures in infinite volume, as…
We study log-correlated Gibbs measures on the $d$-dimensional torus with weakly interacting focusing quartic potentials whose coupling constants tend to $0$ as we remove regularization. In particular, we exhibit a phase transition for this…
We study the phase diagram of the triangular-lattice $Q$-state Potts model in the real $(Q,v)$-plane, where $v=e^J-1$ is the temperature variable. Our first goal is to provide an obviously missing feature of this diagram: the position of…
We study complex CFTs describing fixed points of the two-dimensional $Q$-state Potts model with $Q>4$. Their existence is closely related to the weak first-order phase transition and walking RG behavior present in the real Potts model at…
For the two dimensional randomly disordered three-state Potts ferromagnet, we find numerically that the critical exponent $\eta$ unchanges with the degree of disorder while those of the correlation length ($\nu$) and magnetic susceptibility…
In the present paper we provide a new construction of measure, called $p$-adic quasi Gibbs measure, for countable state of $p$-adic Potts model on the Cayley tree. Such a construction depends on a parameter $\frak{p}$ and wights. In…
A phenomenological approach to the ferromagnetic two dimensional Potts model on square lattice is proposed. Our goal is to present a simple functional form that obeys the known properties possessed by the free energy of the q-state Potts…
The 3-D Z(3) Potts model is a model for finite temperature QCD with heavy quarks. The chemical potential in QCD becomes an external magnetic field in the Potts model. Following Alford et al.\cite{Alford_et_al}, we revisit this mapping, and…
We develop an ansatz for expressing the free energy of the two dimensional $q$-states Potts model for $q > 4$ near its first order phase transition point. We notice that for the moderate values of $ q \lesssim 15 $, the energy profile at…
We discuss walking behavior in gauge theories and weak first-order phase transitions in statistical physics. Despite appearing in very different systems (QCD below the conformal window, the Potts model, deconfined criticality) these two…
We perform Monte Carlo simulations using the Wolff cluster algorithm of the q=2 (Ising), 3, 4 and q=10 Potts models on dynamical phi-cubed graphs of spherical topology with up to 5000 nodes. We find that the measured critical exponents are…
We prove existence of equilibrium states with special properties for a class of distance expanding local homeomorphisms on compact metric spaces and continuous potentials. Moreover, we formulate a C$^1$ generalization of Pesin's Entropy…
We study two $Q$-state Potts models coupled by the product of their energy operators, in the regime $2 < Q \le 4$ where the coupling is relevant. A particular choice of weights on the square lattice is shown to be equivalent to the…
We study gradient models for spins taking values in the integers (or an integer lattice), which interact via a general potential depending only on the differences of the spin values at neighboring sites, located on a regular tree with d + 1…
In the realm of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics there are three well known isomorphic connections with random geometry, namely (i) the Kasteleyn-Fortuin theorem which connects the $\lambda \to 1$ limit of the $\lambda$-state Potts…
This work is concerned with the theory of Graphical Representation for the Ising and Potts Models over general lattices with non-translation invariant external field. We explicitly describe in terms of the Random Cluster Representation the…
We consider sampling in the so-called low-temperature regime, which is typically characterised by non-local behaviour and strong global correlations. Canonical examples include sampling independent sets on bipartite graphs and sampling from…
We study the phase diagram of the ferromagnetic $q$-state Potts model on the various three-dimensional lattices for integer and non-integer values of $q>1$. Our approach is based on a thermodynamically self-consistent Ornstein-Zernike…
We use Monte Carlo simulations to measure the spin-spin correlation function in the disordered phase of two-dimensional $q$-state Potts models with $q=10,15$, and $20$ at the first-order transition point $\beta_t$. To extract the…
We consider the two dimensional $Q-$ random-cluster Potts model on the torus and at the critical point. We study the probability for two points to be connected by a cluster for general values of $Q\in [1,4]$. Using a Conformal Field Theory…
