Dear colleagues,
This is a reminder that tomorrow (Thursday 8) at 14:00, prof. Elena Pulvirenti (TU Delft) will give a virtual seminar “in Florence”, to which you are all invited. You can find title and abstract below.
Title: Metastability for the dilute Curie-Weiss model with Glauber dynamics
Abstract: We analyse the metastable behaviour of the dilute Curie–Weiss model subject to a Glauber dynamics. The model is a random version of a mean-field Ising model, where the coupling coefficients are replaced by i.i.d. random coefficients, e.g. Bernoulli random variables with fixed parameter p. This model can be also viewed as an Ising model on the Erdos–Renyi random graph with edge probability p. The system is a Markov chain where spins flip according to a Metropolis dynamics at inverse temperature \beta. We compute the average time the system takes to reach the stable phase when it starts from a certain probability distribution on the metastable state (called the last-exit biased distribution), in the regime where the system size goes to infinity, the inverse temperature is larger than 1 and the magnetic field is positive and small enough. We obtain asymptotic bounds on the probability of the event that the mean metastable hitting time is approximated by that of the Curie–Weiss model. The proof uses the potential theoretic approach to metastability and concentration of measure inequalities. This is a joint collaboration with Anton Bovier (Bonn) and Saeda Marello (Bonn).
The seminar will be on Zoom. You can find the information to join below.
