We build simple models for the distribution of voting patterns in a group, using the Supreme Court of the United States as an example. The least structured, or maximum entropy, model that is consistent with the observed pairwise…
Consider the voter model on a box of side length $L$ (in the triangular lattice) with boundary votes fixed forever as type 0 or type 1 on two different halves of the boundary. Motivated by analogous questions in percolation, we study…
We consider a modification of the voter model in which a set of interacting elements (agents) can be in either of two equivalent states (A or B) or in a third additional mixed AB state. The model is motivated by studies of language…
Ising model is a widely studied class of models in quantum computation. In this paper we investigate the computational characteristics of the random field Ising model (RFIM) with long-range interactions that decays as an inverse polynomial…
In this work, we study and evaluate the impact of a periodic spin-lattice coupling in an Ising-like system on a 2D triangular lattice. Our proposed simple Hamiltonian considers this additional interaction as an effect of preferential phonon…
The Ising model is a model for pairwise interactions between binary variables that has become popular in the psychological sciences. It has been first introduced as a theoretical model for the alignment between positive (+1) and negative…
We investigate a nonequilibrium coarsening dynamics of a one-dimensional Ising spin system with chirality. Only spins at domain boundaries are updated so that the model undergoes a coarsening to either of equivalent absorbing states with…
We consider a one dimensional ferromagnetic Ising spin system with interactions that correspond to a $1/r^2$ long range perturbation of the usual Kac model. We apply a coarse graining procedure, widely used for higher-dimensional finite…
The model of p Ising spins coupled to 2d gravity, in the form of a sum over planar phi-cubed graphs, is studied and in particular the two-point and spin-spin correlation functions are considered. We first solve a toy model in which only a…
We study the dynamics of opinion formation in a heterogeneous voter model on a complete graph, in which each agent is endowed with an integer fitness parameter $k \ge 0$, in addition to its $+$ or $-$ opinion state. The evolution of the…
The study of critical properties of systems with long-range interactions has attracted in the last decades a continuing interest and motivated the development of several analytical and numerical techniques, in particular in connection with…
The voter model is a toy model of consensus formation based on nearest-neighbor interactions. A voter sits at each vertex in a hypercubic lattice (of dimension $d$) and is in one of two possible opinion states. The opinion state of each…
This paper reports numerical studies of a compressible version of the Ising spin glass in two dimensions. Compressibility is introduced by adding a term that couples the spin-spin interactions and local lattice deformations to the standard…
We introduce a stochastic model of binary opinion dynamics in one dimension. The binary opinions $\pm 1$ are analogous to up and down Ising spins and in the equivalent spin system, only the spins at the domain boundary can flip. The…
We present a new two-state {+-} opinion dynamics model which defines a general frame to include all local dynamics in two-state spin systems. Agents evolve by probabilistic local rules. In each update, groups of various sizes k are formed…
We study a p-spin spin-glass model to understand if the finite-temperature glass transition found in the mean-field regime of p-spin models, and used to model the behavior of structural glasses, persists in the non-mean-field regime. By…
Spin glasses are paradigmatic models that deliver concepts relevant for a variety of systems. However, rigorous analytical results are difficult to obtain for spin-glass models, in particular for realistic short-range models. Therefore…
Understanding the relaxation of a system towards equilibrium is a longstanding problem in statistical mechanics. Here we address the role of long-range interactions in this process by considering a class of two-dimensional or geophysical…
We investigate dimensional reduction, the property that the critical behavior of a system in the presence of quenched disorder in dimension d is the same as that of its pure counterpart in d-2, and its breakdown in the case of the…
This paper rests to a large extend on a paper I wrote some time ago on 'Duality in generalized Ising models and phase transitions without local order parameter'. It deals with Ising models with interactions containing products of more than…
