At first order phase transition the free energy does not have an analytic continuation in the thermodynamical variable, which is conjugate to an order parameter for the transition. This result is proved at low temperature for lattice models…
We study, in a d-dimensional space-time, the nonanalyticity of the thermal free energy in the scalar phi^4 theory as well as in QED. We find that the infrared divergent contributions induce, when d is even, a nonanalyticity in the coupling…
We prove that the pressure (or free energy) of the finite range ferromagnetic Ising model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ is analytic as a function of both the inverse temperature $\beta$ and the magnetic field $h$ whenever the model has the exponential…
We report about two new rigorous results on the non-analytic properties of thermodynamic potentials at first order phase transition. The first one is valid for lattice models ($d\geq 2$) with arbitrary finite state space, and finite-range…
We study the Cauchy directed polymer model on $\mathbb{Z}^{1+1}$, where the underlying random walk is in the domain of attraction to the $1$-stable law. We show that, if the random walk satisfies certain regularity assumptions and its…
We study the statistical mechanics of a one-dimensional log gas with general potential and arbitrary beta, the inverse of temperature, according to the method we introduced for two-dimensional Coulomb gases in [SS2]. Such ensembles…
We calculate the self-energy at finite temperature in scalar $\lambda\phi ^4$ theory to second order in a modified perturbation expansion. Using the renormalisation group equation to tame the logarithms in momentum, it gives an equation to…
We study the SK model at inverse temperature $\beta>0$ and strictly positive field $h>0$ in the region of $(\beta,h)$ where the replica-symmetric formula is valid. An integral representation of the partition function derived from the…

By determining the lattice parameters as a function of temperature of the hexagonal van der Waals ferromagnet Fe$_{2.92(1)}$Ge$_{1.02(3)}$Te$_2$ we obtain the temperature dependence of the spontaneous in-plane magnetostriction in the…
We prove rigorously that the ferromagnetic Ising model on any nonamenable Cayley graph undergoes a continuous (second-order) phase transition in the sense that there is a unique Gibbs measure at the critical temperature. The proof of this…
In this paper, we study the free energy of the directed polymer on a cylinder of radius $L$ with the inverse temperature $\beta$. Assuming the random environment is given by a Gaussian process that is white in time and smooth in space, with…
We introduce and study a model of a logarithmic gas with inverse temperature $\beta$ on an arbitrary smooth closed contour in the plane. This model generalizes Dyson's gas (the $\beta$-ensemble) on the unit circle. We compute the…
We derive a free energy for weakly anisotropic ferromagnets which is valid in the whole temperature range and interpolates between the micromagnetic energy at zero temperature and the Landau free energy near the Curie point T_c. This free…
We prove a lower bound for the free energy (per unit volume) of the two-dimensional Bose gas in the thermodynamic limit. We show that the free energy at density $\rho$ and inverse temperature $\beta$ differs from the one of the…
In this letter we present the inversion of the Mermin-Wagner theorem on graphs, by proving the existence of spontaneous magnetization at finite temperature for classical spin models on transient on the average (TOA) graphs, i.e. graphs…
In this paper we revisit and extend some mathematical aspects of Onsager's theory of liquid crystals that have been investigated in recent years by different communities (statistical mechanics, analysis and probability). We introduce a…
In this work, we have studied the thermodynamic properties of the Van der Waals black hole in the framework of the nonextensive Kaniadakis entropy. We have shown that the black hole properties, such as the mass and temperature, differ from…
We compute higher order contributions to the free energy of noncommutative quantum electrodynamics at a nonzero temperature $T$. Our calculation includes up to three-loop contributions (fourth order in the coupling constant $e$). In the…
In this work we discuss the low temperature ($T$) behavior of gauge field correlators with finite momentum (k) in a $AdS^4$ black hole background. At low temperature, a substantial non-zero conductivity is only possible for a frequency…
