We present a new computation of the critical value of the random-cluster model with cluster weight $q\ge 1$ on $\mathbb{Z}^2$. This provides an alternative approach to the result of Beffara and Duminil-Copin. We believe that this approach…
We prove a long-standing conjecture on random-cluster models, namely that the critical point for such models with parameter $q\geq1$ on the square lattice is equal to the self-dual point $p_{sd}(q) = \sqrt q /(1+\sqrt q)$. This gives a…
We use statistical mechanics to study model-based Bayesian data clustering. In this approach, each partition of the data into clusters is regarded as a microscopic system state, the negative data log-likelihood gives the energy of each…
Using the Baxter-Kelland-Wu coupling and the convergence of the height function of the six-vertex model to the Gaussian Free Field, we extract critical exponents for the planar critical random-cluster model at $q=4$, and the planar…
In this paper, we prove sharpness of the phase transition for the random-cluster model in summable positive external fields, with cluster weight q=2,3,..., on the hypercubic lattice. That is, there exists some nontrivial critical parameter…
We consider q-state Potts models coupled by their energy operators. Restricting our study to self-dual couplings, numerical simulations demonstrate the existence of non-trivial fixed points for 2 <= q <= 4. These fixed points were first…
We study percolation and the random cluster model on the triangular lattice with 3-body interactions. Starting with percolation, we generalize the star--triangle transformation: We introduce a new parameter (the 3-body term) and identify…
Consider the Ising model on $([1,2N]\times[1,2M])\cap\mathbb{Z}^2$ at critical temperature with periodic boundary condition in the horizontal direction and free boundary condition in the vertical direction. Let $E_{M,N}$ be its total energy…
We consider the two dimensional $Q-$ random-cluster Potts model on the torus and at the critical point. We study the probability for two points to be connected by a cluster for general values of $Q\in [1,4]$. Using a Conformal Field Theory…
We prove that for q>=1, there exists r(q)<1 such that for p>r(q), the number of points in large boxes which belongs to the infinite cluster has a normal central limit behaviour under the random cluster measure phi_{p,q} on Z^d, d>=2.…
Using computer simulations, we validate a simple free energy model that can be analytically solved to predict the equilibrium size of self-limiting clusters of particles in the fluid state governed by a combination of short-range attractive…
The low-energy $\pi\pi$ amplitude is computed explicitly to two-loop accuracy in the chiral expansion. It depends only on six independent (combinations of) low-energy constants which are not fixed by chiral symmetry. Four of these constants…
This work concerns the boundary integrability of the spin-s ${\cal{U}}_{q}[sl(2)]$ Temperley-Lieb model. A systematic computation method is used to constructed the solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equations. For $s$ half-integer, a…
Phase transition in the two-dimensional $q$-state Potts model with random ferromagnetic couplings in the large-q limit is conjectured to be described by the isotropic version of the infinite randomness fixed point of the random…
The class of random-cluster models is a unification of a variety of stochastic processes of significance for probability and statistical physics, including percolation, Ising, and Potts models; in addition, their study has impact on the…
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…
In this article, we study the q-state Potts random matrix models extended to branched polymers, by the equations of motion method. We obtain a set of loop equations valid for any arbitrary value of q. We show that, for q=2-2 \cos {l \over…
Recent very large molecular dynamics simulations of homogeneous nucleation with $(1-8) \cdot 10^9$ Lennard-Jones atoms [Diemand et al. J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 139}, 074309 (2013)] allow us to accurately determine the formation free energy of…
We compute the free energy at all temperatures for the spherical pure $p$-spin models from the generalized Thouless-Anderson-Palmer representation. This is the first example of a mixed $p$-spin model for which the free energy is computed in…
We characterize the breaking of analyticity with respect to the replica number which occurs in random energy models via the complex zeros of the moment of the partition function. We perturbatively evaluate the zeros in the vicinity of the…
