This text introduces disordered physical systems, an active and important area at the interface of probability and physics. It features user-friendly accounts of basic processes, recent research of significance, and open problems and areas worthy of further research, including new statements and proofs developed since the first edition.
"Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
This introduction to some of the principal models in the theory of disordered systems leads the reader through the basics, to the very edge of contemporary research, with the minimum of technical fuss. Topics covered include random walk, percolation, self-avoiding walk, interacting particle systems, uniform spanning tree, random graphs, as well as the Ising, Potts, and random-cluster models for ferromagnetism, and the Lorentz model for motion in a random medium. This new edition features accounts of major recent progress, including the exact value of the connective constant of the hexagonal lattice, and the critical point of the random-cluster model on the square lattice. The choice of topics is strongly motivated by modern applications, and focuses on areas that merit further research. Accessible to a wide audience of mathematicians and physicists, this book can be used as a graduate course text. Each chapter ends with a range of exercises.
Geoffrey Grimmett is Professor of Mathematical Statistics in the Statistical Laboratory at the University of Cambridge. He has written numerous research articles in probability theory, as well as popular research books on percolation and the random-cluster model. In addition, he is a co-author, along with David Stirzaker and Dominic Welsh, of two successful textbooks on probability and random processes at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels. He has served as Master of Downing College since 2013 and was elected to the Royal Society in 2014.
