The random-bond Ising model on the square lattice has several disordered critical points, depending on the probability distribution of the bonds. There are a finite-temperature multicritical point, called Nishimori point, and a…

The critical dynamics of model C in the presence of disorder is considered. It is known that in the asymptotics a conserved secondary density decouples from the nonconserved order parameter for disordered systems. However couplings between…
At the critical point, the probability density function of the Ising magnetization is believed to decay like $\exp{(-x^{\delta+1})}$, where $\delta$ is the Ising critical exponent that controls the decay to zero of the magnetization in a…
