6. Gibbs Measures and Phase Transitions in Potts and Beach Models
Abstract : The theory of Gibbs measures belongs to the borderlandbetween statistical mechanics and probability theory. In thiscontext, the physical phenomenon of phase transitioncorresponds to the mathematical concept of non-uniqueness for acertain type of probability measures.The most studied model in statistical mechanics is thecelebrated Ising model.

7. Interacting particle systems in varying environment, stochastic domination in statistical mechanics and optimal pairs trading in finance
Abstract : In this thesis we first consider the contact process in a randomly evolving environment, introduced by Erik Broman. This process is a generalization of the contact process where the recovery rate can vary between two values. The rate which it chooses is determined by a background process, which evolves independently at different sites. READ MORE

8. On the Ising problem and some matrix operations
Abstract : The first part of the dissertation concerns the Ising problem proposed to Ernst Ising by his supervisor Wilhelm Lenz in the early 20s. The Ising model, or perhaps more correctly the Lenz-Ising model, tries to capture the behaviour of phase transitions, i.e. how local rules of engagement can produce large scale behaviour. READ MORE

9. Aspects of Spatial Random Processes
Abstract : This thesis consists of five papers dealing with various aspects of spatial random processes. In the first three papers the main focus is on a special class of such processes, namely measures of maximal entropy for subshifts of finite type. READ MORE
