  1. 1. Graphical representations of Ising and Potts models : Stochastic geometry of the quantum Ising model and the space-time Potts model

    Author : Jakob Erik Björnberg; Anders Björner; Jeffrey Steif; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quantum Ising model; Ising model; Potts model; random-cluster model; random-current representation; random-parity representation; differential inequality; phase transition; Discrete mathematics; Diskret matematik;

    Abstract : HTML clipboard Statistical physics seeks to explain macroscopic properties of matter in terms of microscopic interactions. Of particular interest is the phenomenon of phase transition: the sudden changes in macroscopic properties as external conditions are varied. READ MORE

  2. 2. Resource Allocation with Potts Mean Field Neural Network Techniques

    Author : Martin Lagerholm; Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Potts; combinatorial optimization; ANN; mean field; approximation; routing; unicast; multicast; airline crew; scheduling; ECG; NP-complete.; Matematik; Mathematics; algorithm; Systems engineering; computer technology; Data- och systemvetenskap; Fysicumarkivet A:1998:Lagerholm;

    Abstract : Potts mean field artificial neural network techniques are developed and applied to airline crew scheduling problems and routing problems. A propagator formalism in terms of Potts neurons is developed to handle global topological issues. An integrated method for identifying and classifying ECG complexes is presented. READ MORE

  3. 3. Gibbs Measures and Phase Transitions in Potts and Beach Models

    Author : Per Hallberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : Potts model; beach model; percolation; random-cluster model; Gibbs measure; coupling; Markov chains on infinite trees; critical exponent;

    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.

  4. 4. Case studies in omniparametric simulation

    Author : Fredrik Lundin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; growth model; Ising model; Markov chain; omnithermal simulation; omniparametric simulationpercolatiion; Potts model; parameter estimation; partial observations; random cluster model; Richardson model; simulation driven parameter estimation; two-type Richardson model; omnithermal simulation;

    Abstract : In the eld of particle systems and growths models simulation is an important tool. When explicit calculations are too complex or impossible to perform we may use simulations instead. We adapt a new technique here denoted omniparametric simulation, to the two-type Richardson, Ising and Potts models. READ MORE

  5. 5. Physics from Wholeness : Dynamical Totality as a Conceptual Foundation for Physical Theories

    Author : Barbara Piechocinska; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Erik Sjöqvist; Laszlo Kish; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; wholeness; elementary embedding; left-distributivity; braids; special braids; entropy; Temperley-Lieb algebra; von Neumann algebra; Potts model; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; fasta tillståndets fysik; Solid State Physics;

    Abstract : Motivated by reductionism's current inability to encompass the quantum theory we explore an indivisible and dynamical wholeness as an underlying foundation for physics. After reviewing the role of wholeness in the quantum theory we set a philosophical background aiming at introducing an ontology, based on a dynamical wholeness. READ MORE
