Subcriticality at High Temperatures in Spin Lattice Systems

Nicolò Drago, Lorenzo Pettinari, Christiaan J. F. van de Ven

We provide new sufficient conditions for subcriticality of classical and quantum spin lattice systems, formulated in terms of the uniqueness of Kubo-Martin-Schwinger (KMS) states.…

Strict deformation quantization and local spin interactions

Nicolò Drago, Christiaan J. F. van de Ven

We define a strict deformation quantization which is compatible with any Hamiltonian with local spin interaction (e.g. the Heisenberg Hamiltonian) for a spin chain. This is a gener…
