The Swendsen-Wang dynamics is a popular algorithm for sampling from the Gibbs distribution for the ferromagnetic Ising model on a graph $G=(V,E)$. The dynamics is a "global" Markov chain which is conjectured to converge to equilibrium in…
The Swendsen-Wang algorithm is a sophisticated, widely-used Markov chain for sampling from the Gibbs distribution for the ferromagnetic Ising and Potts models. This chain has proved difficult to analyze, due in part to the global nature of…
We study the Swendsen-Wang dynamics for the $q$-state Potts model on the lattice. Introduced as an alternative algorithm of the classical single-site Glauber dynamics, the Swendsen-Wang dynamics is a non-local Markov chain that recolors…
We study the sampling problem for the ferromagnetic Ising model with consistent external fields, and in particular, Swendsen-Wang dynamics on this model. We introduce a new grand model unifying two closely related models: the subgraph world…
We study the mixing time of the Swendsen-Wang dynamics for the ferromagnetic Ising and Potts models on the integer lattice ${\mathbb Z}^d$. This dynamics is a widely used Markov chain that has largely resisted sharp analysis because it is…
With a nonequilibrium relaxation method, we calculate the dynamic critical exponent z of the two-dimensional Ising model for the Swendsen-Wang and Wolff algorithms. We examine dynamic relaxation processes following a quench from a…

We study the zero-temperature Ising chain evolving according to the Swendsen-Wang dynamics. We determine analytically the domain length distribution and various ``historical'' characteristics, e.g., the density of unreacted domains is shown…
We prove that the spectral gap of the Swendsen-Wang dynamics for the random-cluster model on arbitrary graphs with m edges is bounded above by 16 m log m times the spectral gap of the single-bond (or heat-bath) dynamics. This and the…
We show that the nonequilibrium dynamics of systems with many interacting elements located on a small-world network can be much slower than on regular networks. As an example, we study the phase ordering dynamics of the Ising model on a…
We introduce a new microcanonical dynamics for a large class of Ising systems isolated or maintained out of equilibrium by contact with thermostats at different temperatures. Such a dynamics is very general and can be used in a wide range…
We study numerically the thermalisation and temporal evolution of the reduced density matrix for a two-site subsystem of a fermionic Hubbard model prepared far from equilibrium at a definite energy. Even for very small systems near quantum…
Recent advances in quantum Gibbs sampling leave open the central question of rapid mixing near and below phase transitions. This challenge is especially relevant for code Hamiltonians whose Gibbs states capture phenomena such as the thermal…
The Glauber dynamics of the pure and weakly disordered random-bond 2d Ising model is studied at zero-temperature. A single characteristic length scale, $L(t)$, is extracted from the equal time correlation function. In the pure case, the…
We introduce a lattice spin model that mimics a system of interacting particle through a short range repulsive potential and a long range attractive power law decaying potential. We performed a detailed analysis of the general equilibrium…
