We provide a systematic treatment of self-averaging identities for various spin systems. The method is quite general, basically not relying on the nature of the model, and as a special case recovers the Ghirlanda-Guerra and…

We prove some theorems about self-avoiding walks attached to an impenetrable surface (i.e. positive walks) and subject to a force. Specifically we show the force dependence of the free energy is identical when the force is applied at the…

The surface critical behaviour of the interacting self-avoiding trail is examined using transfer matrix methods coupled with finite-size scaling. Particular attention is paid to the critical exponents at the ordinary and special points…

Suppose a smooth planar curve $\gamma$ is $2\pi$-periodic in the $x$ direction and the length of one period is $\ell$. It is shown that if $\gamma$ self-intersects, then it has a segment of length $\ell- 2\pi$ on which it self-intersects…

We consider continuous-spin models on the $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice with the spins $\sigma_x$ \emph{a priori} uniformly distributed over the unit sphere in $\R^n$ (with $n\ge2$) and the interaction energy having two parts: a…

We study the effects of interference between the self-dual and anti self-dual massive modes of the linearized Einstein-Chern-Simons topological gravity. The dual models to be used in the interference process are carefully analyzed with…

We investigate certain classes of integrable classical or quantum spin systems. The first class is characterized by the recursively defined property $P$ saying that the spin system consists of a single spin or can be decomposed into two…

The Gonihedric 3D Ising model is a lattice spin model in which planar Peierls boundaries between + and - spins can be created at zero energy cost. Instead of weighting the area of Peierls boundaries as the case for the usual 3D Ising model…

The Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is a well-known mechanism for the spin-charge interconversion via the inverse and direct spin galvanic effects. The lack of a full inversion symmetry allows the coupling of the charge current and spin…

We present analysis of a single channel interacting quantum wire problem in the presence of spin-orbit interaction. The spin-orbit coupling breaks the spin-rotational symmetry from SU(2) to U(1) and breaks inversion symmetry. The low-energy…

We prove that there are stationary solutions to the 2D incompressible free boundary Euler equations with two fluids, possibly with a small gravity constant, that feature a splash singularity. More precisely, in the solutions we construct…

A spin-1 model, appropriated to study the competition between bilinear (J_{ij}S_{i}S_{j}) and biquadratic (K_{ij}S_{i}^{2}S_{j}^{2}) random interactions, both of them with zero mean, is investigated. The interactions are infinite-ranged and…
