Convergence of Ising interfaces to Schramm's SLE curves

Dmitry Chelkak, Hugo Duminil-Copin, Clément Hongler +2

We show how to combine our earlier results to deduce strong convergence of the interfaces in the planar critical Ising model and its random-cluster representation to Schramm's SLE…

Approximating the Bethe partition function

Adrian Weller, Tony Jebara

When belief propagation (BP) converges, it does so to a stationary point of the Bethe free energy , and is often strikingly accurate. However, it may converge only to a local op…

Support set of random wave-functions on the Bethe lattice

Andrea De Luca, Antonello Scardicchio, Vladimir E. Kravtsov +1

We introduce a new measure of ergodicity, the support set , for random wave functions on disordered lattices. It is more sensitive than the traditional inverse parti…

Crossing probabilities in topological rectangles for the critical planar FK-Ising model

Dmitry Chelkak, Hugo Duminil-Copin, Clément Hongler

We consider the FK-Ising model in two dimensions at criticality. We obtain bounds on crossing probabilities of arbitrary topological rectangles, uniform with respect to the boundar…
