We performed numerical simulations of the $q$-state Potts model to compute the reduced conductivity exponent $t/ \nu$ for the critical Coniglio-Klein clusters in two dimensions, for values of $q$ in the range $[1;4]$. At criticality, at…
We discuss a correlation function factorization, which relates a three-point function to the square root of three two-point functions. This factorization is known to hold for certain scaling operators at the two-dimensional percolation…
In this work we obtain wrapping probabilities for Ising spin clusters on a torus. We use the analogy with the tricritical point of a Potts model with dilution. The formula obtained are tested against numerical simulation. We also provide…
We develop analytical methods for computing the structure constant for three heavy operators, starting from the recently proposed hexagon approach. Such a structure constant is a semiclassical object, with the scale set by the inverse…
The Potts conformal field theory is an analytic continuation in the central charge of conformal field theory describing the critical two-dimensional $Q$-state Potts model. Four-point functions of the Potts conformal field theory are…
A hidden state in which a spin does not interact with any other spin contributes to the entropy of an interacting spin system. Using the Ginzburg-Landau formalism in the mean-field limit, we explore the $q$-state Potts model with extra $r$…
The recently proposed model of 'solid inflation' features a peculiar three-point function for scalar perturbations with an anisotropic, purely quadrupolar, squeezed limit. We confirm this result as well as the overall amplitude of the three…
We study site percolation on lattices confined to a semi-infinite strip. For triangular and square lattices we find that the probability that a cluster touches the three sides of such a system at the percolation threshold has the continuous…
To highlight certain similarities in combinatorial representations of several well known two-dimensional models of statistical mechanics, we introduce and study a new family of models which specializes to these cases after a proper tuning…
In a statistical cluster or loop model such as percolation, or more generally the Potts models or O(n) models, a pinch point is a single bulk point where several distinct clusters or loops touch. In a polygon P harboring such a model in its…
The $q$-state Potts chain with ferromagnetic couplings, $J=1$, in the presence of a transverse field, $\Gamma$, has a quantum phase transition at $\Gamma/q=1$, which is continuous for $q \le 4$ and of first order for $q>4$. Here we…
We study the critical behavior of the short-range p-state Potts spin glass in three and four dimensions using Monte Carlo simulations. In three dimensions, for p = 3, a finite-size scaling analysis of the correlation length shows clear…
In 1983, Aizenman, Chayes, Chayes, Fr\"ohlich, and Russo proved that $2$-dimensional Bernoulli plaquette percolation in $\mathbb{Z}^3$ exhibits a sharp phase transition for the event that a large rectangular loop is "bounded by a surface of…
We study the universality class of the fixed points of the 2D random bond q-state Potts model by means of numerical transfer matrix methods. In particular, we determine the critical exponents associated with the fixed point on the Nishimori…
We present the results of a Monte Carlo study of the three-dimensional anti-ferromagnetic 3-state Potts model. We compute various cumulants in the neighbourhood of the critical coupling. The comparison of the results with a recent high…
We present detailed simulations of a generalization of the Domany-Kinzel model to 2+1 dimensions. It has two control parameters $p$ and $q$ which describe the probabilities $P_k$ of a site to be wetted, if exactly $k$ of its "upstream"…
For any integers $d,q\ge 3$, we consider the $q$-state ferromagnetic Potts model with an external field on a sequence of expander graphs that converges to the $d$-regular tree $\mathtt{T}_d$ in the Benjamini-Schramm sense. We show that…

In this paper, we use large $\pppm$ N-body simulations to study the three-point correlation function $\zeta$ of clusters in two theoretical models. The first model (LCDM) is a low-density flat model of $\Omega_0=0.3$, $\Lambda_0=0.7$ and…
We investigate the operator content of the Q-state Potts model in arbitrary dimension, using the representation theory of the symmetric group. In particular we construct all possible tensors acting on N spins, corresponding to given…
