We study the critical behavior of the q-state Potts model with random ferromagnetic couplings. Working with the cluster representation the partition sum of the model in the large-q limit is dominated by a single graph, the fractal…
The percolation of Potts spins with equal values in Potts model on graphs (networks) is considered. The general method for finding the Potts clusters size distributions is developed. It allows for full description of percolation transition…
We prove that, in the FK-percolation model, the probabilities of local events are uniformly analytic in the percolation parameter $p$ under suitable mixing assumptions on the measure, and satisfy a uniform exponential growth bound. This…
We consider the 2D quenched--disordered $q$--state Potts ferromagnets and show that at self--dual points any amalgamation of $q-1$ species will fail to percolate despite an overall (high) density of $1-q^{-1}$. Further, in the dilute bond…
Sampling from the $q$-state ferromagnetic Potts model is a fundamental question in statistical physics, probability theory, and theoretical computer science. On general graphs, this problem may be computationally hard, and this hardness…
We explore the Potts model on the generalized decorated square lattice, with both nearest (J1) and next-neighbor (J2) interactions. Using the tensor renormalization-group method augmented by higher-order singular value decompositions, we…
We study the bond percolation problem in random graphs of $N$ weighted vertices, where each vertex $i$ has a prescribed weight $P_i$ and an edge can connect vertices $i$ and $j$ with rate $P_iP_j$. The problem is solved by the $q\to 1$…

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…
In this note we study the block spin mean-field Potts model, in which the spins are divided into $s$ blocks and can take $q\ge 2$ different values (colors). Each block is allowed to contain a different proportion of vertices and behaves…
We present a comprehensive and versatile theoretical framework to study site and bond percolation on clustered and correlated random graphs. Our contribution can be summarized in three main points. (i) We introduce a set of iterative…
Using the random-cluster representation of the $q$-state Potts models we consider the pooling of data from cluster-update Monte Carlo simulations for different thermal couplings $K$ and number of states per spin $q$. Proper combination of…
We consider the quantum site percolation model on graphs with an amenable group action. It consists of a random family of Hamiltonians. Basic spectral properties of these operators are derived: non-randomness of the spectrum and its…
We consider the problem of sampling from the Potts model on random regular graphs. It is conjectured that sampling is possible when the temperature of the model is in the uniqueness regime of the regular tree, but positive algorithmic…
The ground-state of an infinite-range Potts glass-type model with +/- J bonds and unrestricted number of states is used to investigate coalition formation. As a function of the q probability of +J bonds in the system it is found that the r…
The theoretical basis of continuum percolation has changed greatly since its beginning as little more than an analogy with lattice systems. Nevertheless, there is yet no comprehensive theory of this field. A basis for such a theory is…
We study the magnetization distribution of the Ising model on two regular fractals (a hierarchical lattice, the regular simplex) and percolation clusters at the percolation threshold in a two dimensional imbedding space. In all these cases,…
We consider random q-state Potts models for $3\le q \le 8$ on the square lattice where the ferromagnetic couplings take two values $J_1>J_2$ with equal probabilities. For any q the model exhibits a continuous phase transition both in the…
We present a sufficient condition for the presence of spontaneous magnetization for the Ising model on a general graph, related to its long-range topology. Applying this condition we are able to prove the existence of a phase transition at…
Herein, we propose a site random cluster model by introducing an additional cluster weight in the partition function of the traditional site percolation. To simulate the model on a square lattice, we combine the color-assignation and the…
