    Description

    This course is a mathematical analysis of the Ising model, one of the most famous statistical mechanics models. We will start by introducing the model and the relevant questions, then go on to prove the existence of a phase transition for the ferromagnetic model on the d-dimensional hypercubic lattice. Finally, we will focus on specific features of the two dimensional model. 

    Condition of access

    Pre-requisites: 

    The second-year course of introduction to probability (MA.2431/32) (or an equivalent course) is a necessary prerequisite. 

    An advanced course on measure theory and/or probability (Measure and Integration MA.3400/MA.4400 or Probability MA.3412/MA.4412) are recommended but not strictly necessary.
