We study the fixed-magnetization ferromagnetic Ising model on random $d$-regular graphs for $d\ge 3$ and inverse temperature below the tree reconstruction threshold. Our main result is that for each magnetization $\eta$, the free energy…
We study the global influence of curvature on the free energy landscape of two-dimensional binary mixtures confined on closed surfaces. Starting from a generic effective free energy, constructed on the basis of symmetry considerations and…
We consider the Potts model on a two-dimensional periodic rectangular lattice with general coupling constants $J_{ij}>0$, where $i,j\in\{1,2,3\}$ are the possible spin values (or colors). The resulting energy landscape is thus significantly…
Magnetization switching in highly anisotropic single-domain ferromagnets has been previously shown to be qualitatively described by the droplet theory of metastable decay and simulations of two-dimensional kinetic Ising systems with…
It is analytically shown that the one-dimensional Ising model with Glauber dynamics exhibits short time memory effects when submitted to an abrupt change in the temperature. These effects are qualitatively similar to those experimentally…
Physical systems defined on hyperbolic lattices may exhibit phases of matter that only emerge due to negative curvature. We focus on the case of the Ising model under open boundary conditions and show that an ``intermediate'' phase emerges…
We construct a model of short-range interacting Ising spins on a translationally invariant two-dimensional lattice that mimics a reversible circuit that multiplies or factorizes integers, depending on the choice of boundary conditions. We…
Recent experiments confirmed that fluctuations beyond the mean-field approximation can lead to self-bound liquid droplets of ultra-dilute binary Bose mixtures. We proceed beyond the beyond-mean-field approximation, and study liquid Bose…
We present novel results for fast mixing of Glauber dynamics using the newly introduced and powerful Spectral Independence method from [Anari, Liu, Oveis-Gharan: FOCS 2020]. In our results, the parameters of the Gibbs distribution are…
A two-temperature Ising-Schelling model is introduced and studied for describing human segregation. The self-organized Ising model with Glauber kinetics simulated by M\"uller et al. exhibits a phase transition between segregated and mixed…
We consider the Glauber dynamics for the Ising model with "+" boundary conditions, at zero temperature or at temperature which goes to zero with the system size (hence the quotation marks in the title). In dimension d=3 we prove that an…
We consider the phase ordering problem for the low-temperature Ising dynamics initialized from a biased and disordered initialization. Work of Fontes, Schonmann, Sidoravicius (2002) showed that at zero-temperature, Ising Glauber dynamics on…
We consider the low but nonzero temperature regimes of the Glauber dynamics in a chain of Ising spins with first and second neighbor interactions $J_1,\, J_2$. For $0 < -J_2 / | J_1 | < 1$ it is known that at $T = 0$ the dynamics is both…
We present, for the Ising model on the Cayley tree, some explicit formulae of the free energies (and entropies) according to boundary conditions (b.c.). They include translation-invariant, periodic, Dobrushin-like b.c., as well as those…
We study the performance of Markov chains for the $q$-state ferromagnetic Potts model on random regular graphs. It is conjectured that their performance is dictated by metastability phenomena, i.e., the presence of "phases" (clusters) in…
Peres and Winkler proved a "censoring" inequality for Glauber dynamics on monotone spins systems such as the Ising model. Specifically, if, starting from a constant-spin configuration, the spins are updated at some sequence of sites, then…
The Glauber-Exclusion process is a superposition of a Glauber dynamics and the Symmetric Simple Exclusion Process (SSEP) on the lattice. The model was shown to admit a reaction-diffusion equation as the hydrodynamic limit. In this article,…
How a system initially at infinite temperature responds when suddenly placed at finite temperatures is a way to check the existence of phase transitions. It has been shown in [R. da Silva, IJMPC 2023] that phase transitions are imprinted in…
The broad motivation of this work is a rigorous understanding of reversible, local Markov dynamics of interfaces, and in particular their speed of convergence to equilibrium, measured via the mixing time $T_{mix}$. In the…
We study the worst-case mixing time of the global Kawasaki dynamics for the fixed-magnetization Ising model on the class of graphs of maximum degree $\Delta$. Proving a conjecture of Carlson, Davies, Kolla, and Perkins, we show that below…
