The 2+1 dimensional pure SU(N) gauge theories with N <= 4 are candidates for applying the powerful tools of scaling and universality to their deconfinement transitions at finite temperature. The corresponding 2 dimensional q-state Potts…

OpenAI's reasoning model o3-mini-high was used to carry out an exact analytic study of onedimensional ferrimagnetic site- and bond-decorated q-state Potts models. We demonstrate that the finitetemperature ultranarrow phase crossover (UNPC),…

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 $r$…

We explain in a consistent manner the set of seemingly conflicting experiments on the finite temperature Mott critical point, and demonstrate that the Mott transition is in the Ising universality class. We show that, even though the…

We prove that all Gibbs states of the q-state nearest neighbor Potts model on Z^2 below the critical temperature are convex combinations of the q pure phases; in particular, they are all translation invariant. To achieve this goal, we…
