Abstract

We study the site-diluted Ising model on the kagome lattice using the Wolff single-cluster algorithm, focusing on both equilibrium and dynamic critical properties. The equilibrium critical exponents $ν= 1$ and $γ/ν= 7/4$ retain their exact pure Ising values for all spin concentrations $p$ considered, consistent with the marginal irrelevance of disorder at $α= 0$, with the specific heat crossing over from logarithmic to double-logarithmic growth upon dilution. These static results are shared between the kagome and square lattices. On the dynamic side, $z$ decreases upon dilution on both lattice, opposite to what is observed under local dynamics, with evidence of saturation to a $p$-independent value at strong dilution, suggesting a diluted dynamic fixed point. While $z$ is consistent between the two lattices in the pure case, it differs in the diluted regime, an effect we attribute to the two lattices sitting at different positions along the renormalization-group flow between the Ising and percolation fixed points, rather than to a true asymptotic breakdown of dynamic universality.

Explosive connectivity and mechanical rigidity in cubic lattice structures

We study explosive connectivity and mechanical rigidity in three-dimensional cubic lattice structures under Achlioptas-type product-rule dynamics. Our work combines extensive numerical simulation with a theoretical framework based on rigorous finite-size scaling. Using massive-scale simulations up to $L=192$ ($N \approx 7 \times 10^6$) with 20,000 independent realizations, we demonstrate that for $k \ge 8$, the peak susceptibility scales with an exponent of $γ= 1.000$, and the maximum single-step jump stabilizes at a macroscopic fraction. This confirms that while the transition is continuous in the infinite thermodynamic limit, it exhibits the exact finite-size scaling signatures of a first-order discontinuity in finite physical systems. For rigidity, we discover numerically that for richly-connected hosts, increasing the number of choices $k$ optimally enhances the efficiency of rigidification. To explain this phenomenon, we propose a theoretical model centered on a conditional progress function that links an edge's local product-rule score to its global mechanical utility. We show that while local rigidification efficiency monotonically increases, the global rigidity gap exhibits a ``Goldilocks'' minimum at intermediate $k$ due to the emergence of maximally floppy, tree-like components at large $k$. Altogether, our work provides new insights into the relationship between local dynamics and global connectivity and rigidity in cubic lattice structures via both theory and computation.

Sticky eigenstates in systems with sharply divided phase space

We investigate mixed eigenstates in systems with sharply divided phase space, using different piecewise-linear maps whose regular-chaotic boundaries are formed by marginally unstable periodic orbits (MUPOs) or by quasi-periodic orbits. With the overlap index and the entropy localization length, we classify mixed eigenstates and show that the contribution from dynamical tunneling scales as $\sim \hbar\, \exp(-b/\hbar)$, with $b>0$ associated with the relative size of the regular region. The dominant fraction of states that remain sticky to the boundaries, referred to as sticky eigenstates, scales approximately as $\hbar^{1/2}$ in the MUPO case and oscillates around this algebraic behavior in the quasiperiodic case. This behavior generalizes established predictions for hierarchical states in Kolmogorov-Arnold-Moser (KAM) systems, which scale as $\hbar^{1 - 1/γ}$, with $γ$ set by the corresponding classical stickiness reflected in the algebraic decay of cumulative recurrence-time distributions $t^{-γ}$. For the piecewise-linear maps studied here, $γ= 2$. These results reveal a clear quantum signature of classical stickiness in non-KAM systems.

Matrix-Product Belief Propagation for continuous-state-space variables

Computation of observables in discrete stochastic, possibly conditioned, dynamics over large sparse networks is fundamental for a myriad of applications. The Matrix-Product Belief Propagation method allows a semi-analytical estimation of such observables in tree-like networks with a controlled error that depends on the bond dimension, that is the dimension of the employed square matrices. Its computational cost is linear in the time horizon and the network size for a large family of models with discrete degrees of freedom. Here, a generalization of this method to models with continuous or mixed continuous/discrete degrees of freedom is presented, using a tunable expansion in a Hilbert function basis. For a wide class of models, the computational cost of the method is linear in the network size with a prefactor that depends on the basis size and the bond dimension. The method's efficacy is demonstrated by employing a Fourier basis for a mixed continuous/discrete representation of the Kinetic Ising dynamics with real-valued random couplings, where intermediate "local fields" are treated as continuous. The accuracy of the method is verified via comparison with Monte Carlo simulations. For this model, we calculate time auto-correlations, time evolution of energy and magnetization, and finally we estimate the large deviation function of the magnetization at a given future time.
