We have studied the ordering of the q-colours Potts model in two dimensions on a square lattice. On the basis of our observations we propose that if q is large enough the system is not able to break global and local null magnetisation…
This paper rests to a large extend on a paper I wrote some time ago on 'Duality in generalized Ising models and phase transitions without local order parameter'. It deals with Ising models with interactions containing products of more than…
We study the partition function of both Close-Packed Dimers and the Critical Ising Model on a square lattice embedded on a genus two surface. Using numerical and analytical methods we show that the determinants of the Kasteleyn adjacency…
We discuss a two-dimensional system under the perturbation of a Moire potential, which takes the same geometry and lattice constant as the underlying lattices but mismatches up to relative rotation. Such a self-dual model belongs to the…
The Ising model describes collective behaviors such as phase transitions and critical phenomena in various physical, biological, economical, and social systems. It is well-known that spontaneous phase transition at finite temperature does…
We obtain the diagonal reflection matrices for a recently introduced family of dilute ${\rm A}_L$ lattice models in which the ${\rm A}_3$ model can be viewed as an Ising model in a magnetic field. We calculate the surface free energy from…
Enormous advances have been made in the past 20 years in our understanding of the random-field Ising model, and there is now consensus on many aspects of its behavior at least in thermal equilibrium. In contrast, little is known about its…
The two-dimensional Ising model is the simplest model of statistical mechanics exhibiting a second order phase transition. While in absence of magnetic field it is known to be solvable on the lattice since Onsager's work of the forties,…
This paper addresses the well posedness of a dynamical model of perfect plasticity with mixed boundary conditions for general closed and convex elasticity sets. The proof relies on an asymptotic analysis of the solution of a perfect…
We calculate the two-point correlation function and magnetic susceptibility in the anisotropic 2D Ising model on a lattice with one infinite and the other finite dimension, along which periodic boundary conditions are imposed. Using exact…
The dilute A_3 model is a solvable IRF (interaction-round-a-face) model with three local states and adjacency conditions encoded by the Dynkin diagram of the Lie algebra A_3. It can be regarded as a solvable version of a critical Ising…
This is a work in two parts in which we show how to solve a large class of Lindblad master equations for non-interacting particles on $L$ sites. In part I we concentrate on bosonic particles. We show how to reduce the problem to…
Lattice animals provide a discretized model for the theta transition displayed by branched polymers in solvent. Exact graph enumeration studies have given some indications that the phase diagram of such lattice animals may contain two…
The behavior of many magnetic and dielectric solids, and the more contemporary magnetic super-lattices, is governed by dipolar interactions. They are anisotropic and long-ranged, having varied consequences ranging from ground states with…
The phase transitions of random-field q-state Potts models in d=3 dimensions are studied by renormalization-group theory by exact solution of a hierarchical lattice and, equivalently, approximate Migdal-Kadanoff solutions of a cubic…
The statistical mechanics of spin models, such as the Ising or Potts models, on generic random graphs can be formulated economically by considering the N --> 1 limit of Hermitian matrix models. In this paper we consider the N --> 1 limit in…
A new kind of delta expansion is applied on the lattice to the d=2 non-linear sigma model at N=infinity and N=1 which corresponds to the Ising model. We introduce the parameter delta for the dilation of the scaling region of the model with…
The influence of uncorrelated, quenched disorder on the phase transition of two dimensional Potts models will be reviewed. After an introduction where the conditions of relevance of quenched randomness on phase transitions are exemplified…
