We study a mean-field spin model with three- and two-body interactions. The equilibrium measure for large volumes is shown to have three pure states, the phases of the model. They include the two with opposite magnetization and an…
We study the nonequilibrium properties of directed Ising models with non conserved dynamics, in which each spin is influenced by only a subset of its nearest neighbours. We treat the following models: (i) the one-dimensional chain; (ii) the…
Finite-size scaling above the upper critical dimension is a long-standing puzzle in the field of Statistical Physics. Even for pure systems various scaling theories have been suggested, partially corroborated by numerical simulations. In…
We study the critical Ising model with free boundary conditions on finite domains in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with $d\geq4$. Under the assumption, so far only proved completely for high $d$, that the critical infinite volume two-point function is of…
Density profiles are investigated arising in a critical Ising model in two dimensions which is confined to a rectangular domain with uniform or mixed boundary conditions and arbitrary aspect ratio. For the cases in which the two vertical…
We briefly review the Ising model with uncorrelated, quenched random-site or random-bond disorder, which has been controversial in both two and four dimensions. In these dimensions, the leading exponent alpha, which characterizes the…
The upper critical dimension of the Ising model is known to be $d_c=4$, above which critical behavior is regarded as trivial. We hereby argue from extensive simulations that, in the random-cluster representation, the Ising model…
We present a large-scale simulation of the three-dimensional Ising spin glass with Gaussian disorder to low temperatures and large sizes using optimized population annealing Monte Carlo. Our primary focus is investigating the number of pure…
We establish upper bounds for the spectral gap of the stochastic Ising model at low temperature in an N-by-N box, with boundary conditions which are ``plus'' except for small regions at the corners which are either free or ``minus.'' The…
We implement a two-stage approach of the Wang-Landau algorithm to investigate the critical properties of the 3D Ising model with quenched bond randomness. In particular, we consider the case where disorder couples to the nearest-neighbor…
The two-dimensional Ising model is studied at the boundary of a half-infinite cylinder. The three regular lattices (square, triangular and hexagonal) and the three regimes (sub-, super- and critical) are discussed. The probability of having…
By exploiting the well-known observation that size-biasing or zero-biasing an infinitely divisible random variable may be achieved by adding an independent increment, combined with tools from Stein's method for compound Poisson and Gaussian…

Parisi's formal replica-symmetry--breaking (RSB) scheme for mean-field spin glasses has long been interpreted in terms of many pure states organized ultrametrically. However, the early version of this interpretation, as applied to the…
We study two-dimensional Ising spins, evolving through reinforcement learning using their state, action, and reward. The state of a spin is defined as whether it is in the majority or minority with its nearest neighbours. The spin updates…
This is the first of two articles on the study of a particle system model that exhibits a Turing instability type effect. The model is based on two discrete lines (or toruses) with Ising spins, that evolve according to a continuous time…
We propose a new Ising spin glass model on $Z^d$ of Edwards-Anderson type, but with highly disordered coupling magnitudes, in which a greedy algorithm for producing ground states is exact. We find that the procedure for determining…
We propose a method to obtain an improved Hamiltonian (action) for the Ising universality class in three dimensions. The improved Hamiltonian has suppressed leading corrections to scaling. It is obtained by tuning models with two coupling…
The equation of state of the universality class of the 3D Ising model is determined numerically in the critical domain from quantum field theory and renormalization group techniques. The starting point is the five loop perturbative…
Dobrushin (1972) showed that the interface of a 3D Ising model with minus boundary conditions above the $xy$-plane and plus below is rigid (has $O(1)$-fluctuations) at every sufficiently low temperature. Since then, basic features of this…
