In this work we relate the spectral problem of the toroidal six-vertex model's transfer matrix with the theory of integrable non-linear differential equations. More precisely, we establish an analogy between the Classical Inverse Scattering…
We prove an inequality on decision trees on monotonic measures which generalizes the OSSS inequality on product spaces. As an application, we use this inequality to prove a number of new results on lattice spin models and their…
We consider the groundstate wave function and spectra of the $L$-site XXZ $U_q[s\ell(2)]$ invariant quantum spin chain with $q=\exp(\pi i/3)$. This chain is related to the critical Q=1 Potts model and exhibits $c=0$ conformal invariance. We…
Monte Carlo simulations are performed to study the two-dimensional Potts models with q=3 and 4 states on directed Small-World network. The disordered system is simulated applying the Heat bath Monte Carlo update algorithm. A first-order and…
It is shown that a quasi two dimensional (layered) Heisenberg antiferromagnet with fully frustrated interplane couplings ({\it e.g.} on a body-centered tetragonal lattice) generically exhibits two thermal phase transitions with lowering…
A spin-1/2 chain model that includes three spin interactions can effectively describe the dynamics of two species of bosons trapped in an optical lattice with a triangular-ladder configuration. A perturbative theoretical approach and…

We argue that chiral symmetry breaking in three dimensional QCD can be identified with N\'eel order in 2-dimensional quantum antiferromagnets. When operators which drive the chiral transition are added to these theories, we postulate that…
In this paper and its sequel, we construct topologically invariant defects in two-dimensional classical lattice models and quantum spin chains. We show how defect lines commute with the transfer matrix/Hamiltonian when they obey the defect…
$Q$-systems and $T$-systems are systems of integrable difference equations that have recently attracted much attention, and have wide applications in representation theory and statistical mechanics. We show that certain $\tau$-functions,…
We study the q-dependent susceptibility chi(q) of a Z-invariant ferromagnetic Ising model on a Penrose tiling, as first introduced by Korepin using de Bruijn's pentagrid for the rapidity lines. The pair-correlation function for this model…
The transfer matrix method is used to analyze resonances in Randall-Sundrum models. Although it has successfully been used previously by us we provide here a comparison between the numerical and analytical models. To reach this we first…
We classify four-state spin models with interactions along the edges according to their behavior under a specific group of symmetry transformations. This analysis uses the measure of complexity of the action of the symmetries, in the spirit…
A hybrid Potts model where a random concentration $p$ of the spins assume $q_0$ states and a random concentration $1-p$ of the spins assume $q>q_0$ states is introduced. It is known that when the system is homogeneous, with an integer spin…
We reconsider the Mott transition in the context of a two-dimensional fermion model with density-density coupling. We exhibit a Hilbert space mapping between the original model and the Double Lattice Chern-Simons theory at the critical…
The general idea of this paper is to start from a classical integrable (partial differential) equation which arises as a compatibility condition for a matrix linear differential problem. For definitiveness' sake, a generalised sinh-Gordon…
We explore the connection between the transfer matrix formalism and discrete complex analysis approach to the two dimensional Ising model. We construct a discrete analytic continuation matrix, analyze its spectrum and establish a direct…

We review the application of random matrix theory (RMT) to chiral symmetry in QCD. Starting from the general philosophy of RMT we introduce a chiral random matrix model with the global symmetries of QCD. Exact results are obtained for…
We study the inhomogeneous 8-vertex model (or equivalently the XYZ Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain) with all kinds of integrable quasi-periodic boundary conditions: periodic, $\sigma^x$-twisted, $\sigma^y$-twisted or $\sigma^z$-twisted. We show…
