We discuss the utility of analytical and numerical investigation of spin models, in particular spin glasses, on ordinary ``thin'' random graphs (in effect Feynman diagrams) using methods borrowed from the ``fat'' graphs of two dimensional…

We define an inhomogeneous percolation model on "ladder graphs" obtained as direct products of an arbitrary graph $G = (V,E)$ and the set of integers $\mathbb{Z}$ (vertices are thought of as having a "vertical" component indexed by an…

We discuss the q-state Potts models for q<=4, in the scaling regimes close to their critical or tricritical points. Starting from the kink S-matrix elements proposed by Chim and Zamolodchikov, the bootstrap is closed for the scaling regions…

The critical curves of the q-state Potts model can be determined exactly for regular two-dimensional lattices G that are of the three-terminal type. Jacobsen and Scullard have defined a graph polynomial P_B(q,v) that gives access to the…

Given a graph $G$, we consider a model for a random cover of $G$ by taking two parallel copies of $G$ and crossing every pair of parallel edges randomly with probability $q$ independently of each other. The resulting graph $G_q$, is a…

We present an exact solution of percolation in a generalized class of Watts-Strogatz graphs defined on a 1-dimensional underlying lattice. We find a non-classical critical point in the limit of the number of long-range bonds in the system…

The phase transition in the q-state Potts model with homogeneous ferromagnetic couplings is strongly first order for large q, while is rounded in the presence of quenched disorder. Here we study this phenomenon on different two-dimensional…

We consider the Potts model with $q$ colors on a sequence of weighted graphs with adjacency matrices $A_n$, allowing for both positive and negative weights. Under a mild regularity condition the mean-field prediction for the log partition…

We study the spectrum of adjacency matrices of random graphs. We develop two techniques to lower bound the mass of the continuous part of the spectral measure or the density of states. As an application, we prove that the spectral measure…

We study the percolation properties of force networks in an anisotropic model for granular packings, the so-called q-model. Following the original recipe of Ostojic et al. [Nature 439, 828 (2006)], we consider a percolation process in which…

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 study the large-$N$ limit of adjoint fermion one-matrix models. We find one-cut solutions of the loop equations for the correlators of these models and show that they exhibit third order phase transitions associated with $m$-th order…

The main objective of the work presented here is to understand the appearance of phase transitions in pure gauge and scalar lattice QED. Main results are as follows: Pure gauge compact QED with PBC shows a monopole percolation phenomena…

We consider the two-dimensional dilute q-state Potts model on its first order phase transition surface for 0<q\leq 4. After determining the exact scattering theory which describes the scaling limit, we compute the two-kink form factors of…

This paper studies the first passage percolation (FPP) model: each edge in the cubic lattice is assigned a random passage time, and consideration is given to the behavior of the percolation region $B(t)$, which consists of those vertices…

We study the q-state Potts model with nearest-neighbor coupling v=e^{\beta J}-1 in the limit q,v \to 0 with the ratio w = v/q held fixed. Combinatorially, this limit gives rise to the generating polynomial of spanning forests; physically,…

We construct the exact partition function of the Potts model on a complete graph subject to external fields with linear and nematic type couplings. The partition function is obtained as a solution to a linear diffusion equation and the free…
