ICTP, Central Area, 2nd floor, old SISSA building, via Beirut 2

Speaker: Diego Alberici - Department of Mathematics, Università di Bologna

Title:  Monomer-dimer models on random graphs

Abstract:
I will introduce monomer-dimer models, an example of Statistical 
Mechanics models on graphs characterized by hard-core interaction. A 
great contribution in this field was given by Heilmann and Lieb, who 
proved the absence of phase transitions under very general hypothesis.

In the second part of the talk I will focus on monomer-dimer models on 
sparse random graphs, which can be solved exactly by means of a cavity 
method and rigorously thanks to a family of correlation inequalite
