The spin - 3/2 Ising model on a square lattice is investigated. It is shown that this model is reducible to an eight - vertex model on a surface in the parameter space spanned by coupling constants J, K, L and M. It is shown that this model…
We analyze the crystallization and collapse transition of a simple model for flexible polymer chains on simple cubic and face-centered cubic lattices by means of sophisticated chain-growth methods. In contrast to bond-fluctuation polymer…
The dimer problem arose in a thermodynamic study of diatomic molecules, and was abstracted into one of the most basic and natural problems in both statistical mechanics and combinatoric mathematics. Given a rectangular lattice of volume V…
The steady-state of a generalized coagulation-decoagulation model on a one-dimensional lattice with reflecting boundaries is studied using a matrix-product approach. It is shown that the quadratic algebra of the model has a four-dimensional…
We study a one-dimensional lattice gas "dynamical geometry model" in which local reversible interactions of counter-rotating groups of particles on a ring can create or destroy lattice sites. We exhibit many periodic orbits and and show…
We compute properties of the interface of the 3-dimensional Ising model for a wide range of temperatures and for interface extensions up to 64 by 64. The interface tension sigma is obtained by integrating the surface energy density over the…
Three dimensional dendrites are studied with a coupled map lattice model. We study the fractal dimensions, the f(\alpha) spectrum, the size distribution of sidebranches, and the envelope formed by sidebranches.
We investigate bipartite entanglement in spin-1/2 systems on a generic lattice. For states that are an equal superposition of elements of a group $G$ of spin flips acting on the fully polarized state $\ket{0}^{\otimes n}$, we find that the…
This is a contribution to the number theory of the dimer problem. The number of dimer coverings (i.e., perfect matchings) of a square lattice graph is discussed modulo powers of 2.
A statistical model of loops on the three-dimensional lattice is proposed and is investigated. It is O(n)-type but has loop fugacity that depends on global three-dimensional shapes of loops in a particular fashion. It is shown that, despite…
Entanglement entropy under a particle bipartition provides complementary information to mode entanglement as it is sensitive to interactions and particle statistics at leading order and does not depend on any externally imposed length…
We present a microscopic theory that describes the ordering of two distinct ligands on the surface of a faceted nanoparticle. The theory predicts that when one type of ligand is significantly bulkier than all others, the larger ligands…
The competition between chain entropy and bending rigidity in compact polymers can be addressed within a lattice model introduced by P.J. Flory in 1956. It exhibits a transition between an entropy dominated disordered phase and an…
We perform Transition matrix Monte Carlo simulations to evaluate the entropy of rhombus tilings with fixed polygonal boundaries and 2D-fold rotational symmetry. We estimate the large-size limit of this entropy for D=4 to 10. We confirm…
We study a lattice-gas model of penetrable particles on a square-lattice substrate with same-site and nearest-neighbor interactions. Penetrability implies that the number of particles occupying a single lattice site is unlimited and the…
We propose a model for a two dimensional, associative water-like lattice gas with one single variable representing both long and short-range interactions. The corresponding hamiltonian was solved exactly, by state enumeration in a finite…
We investigate the critical scaling of the spin-1/2 antiferromagnet on the square lattice in the easy-plane (XXZ) regime, via numerical measurements of the entanglement entropy constructed from the zeroes of a polynomial ring. We relate…
We compute entanglement entropy for free massive scalar fields in anti-de Sitter (AdS) space. The entangling surface is a minimal surface whose boundary is a sphere at the boundary of AdS. The entropy can be evaluated from the thermal free…
We analyze the problem of quadrangulating a $n$-sided patch, each side at its boundary subdivided into a given number of edges, using a single irregular vertex (or none, when $n = 4$) that breaks the otherwise fully regular lattice. We…
We call "flippable tilings" of a constant curvature surface a tiling by "black" and "white" faces, so that each edge is adjacent to two black and two white faces (one of each on each side), the black face is forward on the right side and…
