We study the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet with $q=3$ on the honeycomb lattice. Using an analytic argument together with a Monte Carlo simulation, we conclude that this model is disordered for all $T \ge 0$. We also calculate the ground…

We report several results concerning $W(\Lambda,q)=\exp(S_0/k_B)$, the exponent of the ground state entropy of the Potts antiferromagnet on a lattice $\Lambda$. First, we improve our previous rigorous lower bound on $W(hc,q)$ for the…

We present generalized methods for calculating lower bounds on the ground-state entropy per site, $S_0$, or equivalently, the ground-state degeneracy per site, $W=e^{S_0/k_B}$, of the antiferromagnetic Potts model. We use these methods to…

We calculate rigorous lower bounds for the ground state degeneracy per site, $W$, of the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on slabs of the simple cubic lattice that are infinite in two directions and finite in the third and that thus…

We discuss recent results on ground state entropy in Potts antiferromagnets and connections with chromatic polynomials. These include rigorous lower and upper bounds, Monte Carlo measurements, large--$q$ series, exact solutions, and studies…

We calculate the large-$q$ series expansion for the ground state degeneracy (= exponent of the ground state entropy) per site of the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on the $(3 \cdot 12^2)$ lattice, to order $O(y^{19})$, where $y=1/(q-1)$.…

We prove a general rigorous lower bound for $W(\Lambda,q)=\exp(S_0(\Lambda,q)/k_B)$, the exponent of the ground state entropy of the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet, on an arbitrary Archimedean lattice $\Lambda$. We calculate large-$q$…

We study the ground state degeneracy per site (exponent of the ground state entropy) $W(\Lambda,(L_x=\infty) \times L_y,q)$ for the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on infinitely long strips with width $L_y$ of 2D lattices $\Lambda$ with…

We present exact calculations of the chromatic polynomial and resultant ground state entropy of the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on lattice strips that are homeomorphic expansions of a strip of the kagome lattice. The dependence of the…

The q-state Potts antiferromagnet on a lattice $\Lambda$ exhibits nonzero ground state entropy $S_0=k_B \ln W$ for sufficiently large q and hence is an exception to the third law of thermodynamics. An outstanding challenge has been the…

We apply a newly proposed Monte Carlo method, the Wang-Landau algorithm, to the study of the three-dimensional antiferromagnetic q-state Potts models on a simple cubic lattice. We systematically study the phase transition of the models with…

We study the antiferromagnetic $q$-state Potts model on the square lattice for $q=3$ and $q=4$, using the Wang-Swendsen-Koteck\'y Monte Carlo algorithm and a new finite-size-scaling extrapolation method. For $q=3$ we obtain good control up…

We present exact calculations of the zero-temperature partition function (chromatic polynomial) and $W(q)$, the exponent of the ground-state entropy, for the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet with next-nearest-neighbor spin-spin couplings on…

We present exact calculations of the zero-temperature partition function, $Z(G,q,T=0)$, and ground-state degeneracy (per site), $W({G},q)$, for the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on a number of families of graphs ${G}$ for which the…

We present exact solutions for the zero-temperature partition function (chromatic polynomial $P$) and the ground state degeneracy per site $W$ (= exponent of the ground-state entropy) for the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on strips of the…

We present exact calculations of the zero-temperature partition function (chromatic polynomial) $P$ for the $q$-state Potts antiferromagnet on triangular lattice strips of arbitrarily great length $L_x$ vertices and of width $L_y=3$…

We prove the existence of long-range order at sufficiently low temperatures, including zero temperature, for the three-state Potts antiferromagnet on a class of quasi-transitive plane quadrangulations, including the diced lattice. More…

We exhibit infinite families of two-dimensional lattices (some of which are triangulations or quadrangulations of the plane) on which the q-state Potts antiferromagnet has a finite-temperature phase transition at arbitrarily large values of…

We investigate the entropy bound for local quantum field theory in this paper. Both the bosonic and fermionic fields confined to an asymptotically flat spacetime are examined. By imposing the non-gravitational collapse condition, we find…

Generalized entropies and relative entropies are the subject of active research. Similar to the standard relative entropy, the relative $q$-entropy is generally unbounded for $q>1$. Upper bounds on the quantum relative $q$-entropy in terms…
