We consider polymers made of magnetic monomers (Ising or Heisenberg-like) in a good solvent. These polymers are modeled as self-avoiding walks on a cubic lattice, and the ferromagnetic interaction between the spins carried by the monomers…
The classical spin $O(n)$ model is a model on a $d$-dimensional lattice in which a vector on the $(n-1)$-dimensional sphere is assigned to every lattice site and the vectors at adjacent sites interact ferromagnetically via their inner…
An alternative definition for the order-parameter is proposed, for a family of non-equilibrium spin models with up-down symmetry on honeycomb lattices, and which depends on two parameters. In contrast to the usual definition, our proposal…

We investigate the phase diagram and critical behavior of a three-dimensional lattice CP(N-1) model in the large-N limit. Numerical evidence of first-order transitions is always observed for sufficiently large values of N, i.e. N>2 up to…
Carrying out perturbations around a lattice topological field theory in two dimensions, we show that it is on a first order phase transition fixed point with multiplicity ${n(n-1)/2}$, where $n$ is the number of its independent physical…
We show that the loop $O(n)$ model on the hexagonal lattice exhibits exponential decay of loop sizes whenever $n> 1$ and $x<\tfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}+\varepsilon(n)$, for some suitable choice of $\varepsilon(n)>0$. It is expected that, for $n…
