Solvable vertex models in two dimensions are of importance in conformal field theory, phase transitions and integrable models. We consider here the $D_n$ spin vertex models, for $n$ which is odd. The models involve also the anti--spinor…

We consider a class of multi-matrix models with an action which is O(D) invariant, where D is the number of NxN Hermitian matrices X_\mu, \mu=1,...,D. The action is a function of all the elementary symmetric functions of the matrix…

We calculate numerically universal finite-size-scaling functions of the magnetization for the three-dimensional O(4) and O(2) spin models. The approach of these functions to the infinite-volume scaling functions is studied in detail on the…
The subject matter of this work is a 1D quantum spin - $\frac{1}{2}$ chain associated with the inhomogeneous six-vertex model possessing an additional ${\cal Z}_r$ symmetry. The model is studied in a certain parametric domain, where it is…

The study of the Ising model from a percolation perspective has played a significant role in the modern theory of critical phenomena. We consider the celebrated square-lattice Ising model and construct percolation clusters by placing bonds,…
We use the optimized perturbation theory, or linear delta expansion, to evaluate the critical exponents in the critical 3d O(N) invariant scalar field model. Regarding the implementation procedure, this is the first successful attempt to…
We investigate a one-dimensional three-species dynamical model whose dynamics naturally generate the semi-directed percolation cluster in time and show a non-equilibrium absorbing state phase transition from an active to inactive state. The…
We study here the random diffusion model. This is a continuum model for a conserved scalar density field $\phi$ driven by diffusive dynamics. The interesting feature of the dynamics is that the {\it bare} diffusion coefficient $D$ is…
We study $(1+1)$-dimensional $SU(N)$ spin systems in the presence of the global $SU(N)$ rotation and lattice translation symmetries. By matching the mixed anomaly of the $PSU(N)\times\mathbb{Z}$ symmetry in the continuum limit, we identify…
Here we investigate the accuracy of the overlap criterion when applied to a simple near-integrable model in both its 2D and 3D version. To this end, we consider respectively, two and three quartic oscillators as the unperturbed system, and…
We discuss three questions related to the critical behavior of hierarchical spin models: 1) the hyperscaling relations in the broken symmetry phase; 2) the combined use of dual expansions to calculate the non-universal quantities; 3) the…
This paper provides a technical companion to M. Aguado and E. Seiler, hep-lat/0406041, in which the fate of perturbation theory in the thermodynamic limit is discussed for the O(N) model on a 2d lattice and different boundary conditions.…
We study quasi-one-dimensional scattering of one and two particles with short-range interactions on a discrete lattice model in two dimensions. One of the directions is tightly confined by an arbitrary trapping potential. We obtain the…
We study the O(2N) model at criticality in three dimensions in the double scaling limit of large N and large charge. We show that the large-charge expansion is an asymptotic series, and we use resurgence techniques to study the…
