Ising models on locally tree-like graphs
Amir Dembo,Andrea Montanari +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the "cavity" prediction for the limiting free energy per spin is correct for any positive temperature and external field, and that local marginals can be approximated by iterating a set of mean field (Cavity) equations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cover times for Brownian motion and random walks in two dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a simple random walk to cover all points of the lattice torus Z 2 is asymptotic to 4n 2 (logn) 2 =.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ising models on locally tree-like graphs
Amir Dembo,Andrea Montanari +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Boltzmannian prediction for the limiting free energy per spin is correct for any positive temperature and external field, and local marginals can be approximated by iterating a set of mean field (cavity) equations.

Stochastic Interface Models
Amir Dembo,Tadahisa Funaki +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the scaling limits which pass from the microscopic models to macroscopic level are formulated as classical limit procedures in probability theory such as the law of large numbers, the central limit theorem and the large deviation principles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Limit Distribution of Maximal Non-Aligned Two-Sequence Segmental Score
TL;DR: In this paper, the maximal nonaligned segment score is derived for two independent sequences with i.i.d. distributions on finite alphabets, and the limit distribution is derived when the distributions are not too far apart.
