We discuss the relationship between discrete-time processes (chains) and one-dimensional Gibbs measures. We consider finite-alphabet (finite-spin) systems, possibly with a grammar (exclusion rule). We establish conditions for a stochastic…

We prove that the distribution of a Gibbs process with non-negative pair potential is uniquely determined as soon as an associated Poisson-driven random connection model (RCM) does not percolate. Our proof combines disagreement coupling in…

Two structures are said to be equimorphic if each embeds in the other. Such structures cannot be expected to be isomorphic, and in this paper we investigate the special case of linear orders, here also called chains. In particular we…

We consider the plus-phase of the two-dimensional Ising model below the critical temperature. In $1989$ Schonmann proved that the projection of this measure onto a one-dimensional line is not a Gibbs measure. After many years of continued…

Regular $g$-measures are discrete-time processes determined by conditional expectations with respect to the past. One-dimensional Gibbs measures, on the other hand, are fields determined by simultaneous conditioning on past and future. For…

In the present paper, the Ising model with mixed spin-(1,1/2) is considered on the second order Cayley tree. A construction of splitting Gibbs measures corresponding the model is given which allows to establish the existence of the phase…

We consider Markov chains on partially ordered sets that generalize the success-runs and remaining life chains in reliability theory. We find conditions for recurrence and transience and give simple expressions for the invariant…

We examine the ground state properties of the s=1/2 transverse Ising chain with regularly alternating bonds and fields using exact analytical results and exact numerical data for long (up to N=900) and short (N=20) chains. For a given…

We introduce an statistical mechanical formalism for the study of discrete-time stochastic processes with which we prove: (i) General properties of extremal chains, including triviality on the tail $\sigma$-algebra, short-range…

We develop a black-box theory, which can be used to show that a sequence of Gibbsian line ensembles is tight, provided that the one-point marginals of the lowest labeled curves of the ensembles are tight and globally approximate an inverted…

A while ago, Luck (J. Stat. Phys. 72 (1993) 417) investigated the critical behaviour of one-dimensional Ising quantum chains with couplings constants modulated according to general non-periodic sequences. In this short note, we take a…

The Gibbs Paradox is essentially a set of open questions as to how sameness of gases or fluids (or masses, more generally) are to be treated in thermodynamics and statistical mechanics. They have a variety of answers, some restricted to…

We summarize some facts on chains (totally ordered sets), from an order-theoretic and from a topological point of view. We highlight the fact that many classical theorems that are true for partially ordered sets under some completeness…

The chain graph model admits both undirected and directed edges in one graph, where symmetric conditional dependencies are encoded via undirected edges and asymmetric causal relations are encoded via directed edges. Though frequently…

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…

We show that Gibbs states of non-homogeneous transverse Ising chains satisfy a \emph{shielding} property. Namely, whatever the fields on each spin and exchange couplings between neighboring spins are, if the field in one particular site is…

Consider a sequence of Gibbsian line ensembles, whose lowest labeled curves (i.e., the edge) have tight one-point marginals. Then, given certain technical assumptions on the nature of the Gibbs property and underlying random walk measure,…

We explore the phase diagram of Ising spins on one-dimensional chains which criss-cross in two perpendicular directions and which are connected by interchain couplings. This system is of interest as a simpler, classical analog of a quantum…

The statistical mechanics of a ribbon polymer made up of two semiflexible chains is studied using both analytical techniques and simulation. The system is found to have a crossover transition at some finite temperature, from a type of short…

In this paper, we revisit the Dobrushin uniqueness theorem for Gibbs measures of lattice systems of interacting particles at thermal equilibrium. In a nutshell, Dobrushin's uniqueness theorem provides a practical way to derive sufficient…
