A General Coupling for Ising Models and Beyond
The couplings between the Ising model and its graphical representations, the random-cluster, random current and loop $\mathrm{O}(1)$ models, are put on common footing through a generalization of the Swendsen-Wang-Edwards-Sokal coupling. A new special case is that the single random current with parameter $2J$ on edges of agreement of XOR-Ising spins has the law of the double random current. The coupling also yields a general mechanism for constructing conditional Bernoulli percolation measures v…

Ising superconductivity in bulk layered non-centrosymmetric 4H-NbSe2
Transition metal dichalcogenides exhibit multiple polymorphs that enable the exploration of diverse quantum states, including valley-selective spin polarization, the valley Hall effect, Ising superconductivity, and nontrivial topology. Monolayer 2$H$-NbSe$_2$ is a promising candidate for realizing Ising superconductivity due to its spin-split, out-of-plane spin-polarized states arising from inversion symmetry breaking and strong spin-orbit coupling. In contrast, bulk 2$H$-NbSe$_2$ retains inver…

Semi-supervised Community Detection using Glauber Dynamics for an Ising Model
We consider graphs with two communities and analyze an algorithm for learning the community labels when the edges of the graph and only a small fraction of the labels are known in advance. The algorithm is based on the Glauber dynamics for an Ising model where the energy function includes a quadratic penalty on the magnetization. The analysis focuses on graphs sampled from a Stochastic Block Model (SBM) with slowly growing mean degree. We derive a mean-field limit for the magnetization of each …
