A formal framework for higher-order spin models via hypergraphs, polymatroids, and the Tutte polynomial
Khallil Berrekkal, Joanna A. Ellis-Monaghan, Merijn Moody +1
We develop a rigorous mathematical framework for statistical mechanics models on hypergraphs, and give conditions for lifting the classical connection between Potts model partition…

A Hypergraph Tutte Polynomial
Khallil Berrekkal, Joanna A. Ellis-Monaghan, Merijn Moody
We introduce a Tutte polynomial for hypergraphs, , together with , a related Tutte polynomial for -polymatroids. Both invariants admit deletion--contractio…
