TLDR
The number of ways of coloring the bonds of a hexagonal lattice of L sites (L large) with three colors so that no adjacent bonds are colored alike is calculated exactly, giving W = 1.20872.
Abstract
The number of ways WL of coloring the bonds of a hexagonal lattice of L sites (L large) with three colors so that no adjacent bonds are colored alike is calculated exactly, giving W = 1.20872 …. This is equivalent to counting the number of 4‐colorings of the faces of the lattice and can also be regarded as a multiple‐dimer problem. If one introduces activities corresponding to certain vertex configurations, then the system is found to have an infinite‐order phase transition between two ordered states.

Absence of Mott Transition in an Exact Solution of the Short-Range, One-Band Model in One Dimension

TL;DR: In this paper, the short-range, one-band model for electron correlations in a narrow energy band is solved exactly in the one-dimensional case, and the ground-state energy, wave function, and chemical potentials are obtained, and it is found that the ground state exhibits no conductor-insulator transition as the correlation strength is increased.

Dimer Statistics and Phase Transitions

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the configurational partition function of a generalized dimer system can be expressed in terms of a Pfaffian, and hence calculated explicitly, if the lattice graph is planar and if the dimers occupy all lattice sites.
