We consider the Constrained-degree percolation model in random environment on the square lattice. In this model, each vertex $v$ has an independent random constraint ${\kappa}_v$ which takes the value $j\in \{0,1,2,3\}$ with probability…
The high-temperature susceptibility of the $q$-state Potts model behaves as $\Gamma|T-T_c|^{-\gamma}$ as $T\to T_c+$, while for $T\to T_c-$ one may define both longitudinal and transverse susceptibilities, with the same power law but…
We report on single-cluster Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising, 4-state Potts and 10-state Potts models on quenched ensembles of planar, tri-valent random graphs. We confirm that the first-order phase transition of the 10-state Potts…

In a recent paper hep-lat/9704020 we investigated Potts models on ``thin'' random graphs -- generic Feynman diagrams, using the idea that such models may be expressed as the N --> 1 limit of a matrix model. The models displayed first order…

We consider the q=4 Potts model on the square lattice with an additional hard-core nonlocal interaction. That interaction arises from the choice of the reference measure taken to be the uniform measure on the recurrent configurations for…

The two-dimensional $q$-state clock models exhibit the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition for $q\geq5$ since they are a subset of the isotropic XY model. We examine the $6$-state clock model with an anisotropic deformation.…
In this paper, we study the annealed ferromagnetic $q$-state Potts model on sparse rank-1 random graphs, where vertices are equipped with a vertex weight, and the probability of an edge is proportional to the product of the vertex weights.…
We study using Monte Carlo simulations the finite-size scaling behavior of the interfacial adsorption of the two-dimensional square-lattice $q$-states Potts model. We consider the pure and random-bond versions of the Potts model for $q =…
