1. On the Ising problem and some matrix operations
Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
2. Interacting particle systems in varying environment, stochastic domination in statistical mechanics and optimal pairs trading in finance
Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
3. A Random Walk in Statistical Physics
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with some aspects of the physics of disordered systems. It consists of four papers and an introductory part. An introduction, suitable for physicists, to theoretical computer science and computational complexity is contained in chapter 2. LÄS MER
