Journal ArticleDOI
Integrable mappings and soliton equations II
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that simple solutions of discrete soliton equations satisfy 2D mappings and that these belong to a recently introduced 18-parameter family of integrable reversible mappings of the plane.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Statistical Mechanics of Phase Transitions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors trace the development and study of phase transitions from late last century to the present day, with a brief historical sketch and a description of the statistical mechanics of phase transition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrable mappings and soliton equations
TL;DR: In this paper, an 18-parameter family of integrable reversible mappings of the plane is presented, which are shown to occur in soliton theory and in statistical mechanics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inequality with Applications in Statistical Mechanics
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that for Hermitian matrices (or more generally for completely continuous self-adjoint linear operators in Hilbert space) A and B, Tr (eA+B ) ≤ Tr(eAeB ), and the inequality was shown to be sharper than the convexity property (0 ≤ α ≤ 1).
Journal ArticleDOI
On the dynamics of a continuum spin system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the equation of motion for each three-dimensional spin vector and showed that in the continuum limit where the spins lie dense on a line, this set of equations reduces to a nonlinear partial differential equation.
