We study by Monte Carlo simulations and scaling analysis two models of pairs of confined and dense ring polymers in two dimensions. The pair of ring polymers are modelled by squared lattice polygons confined within a square cavity and they are placed in relation to each other to be either unlinked or linked in the plane. The observed rich phase diagrams of the two models reveal several equilibrium phases separated by first order and continuous phase boundaries whose critical nature depend on this reciprocal placements. We estimate numerically the critical exponents associated with the phase boundaries and with the multicritical points where first order and continuous phase boundaries meet.

We study the evolution of an initially random distribution of particles on a square lattice, under certain rules for `growing and `culling of particles. In one version we allow the particles to move laterally along the surface (mobile layer) and in t he other version this motion is not allowed (immobile case). In the former case both analytical and computer simulation results are presented, while in the latter only simulation is possible. We introduce growth and culling probabilities appropriate for condensation and evaporation on a two-dimensional surface, and compare results with existing models for this problem. Our results show very interesting behaviour, under certain conditions quite different from earlier models. We find a possibility of hysteresis not reported earlier for such models. ~

The partition function of the square lattice Ising model on the rectangle with open boundary conditions in both directions is calculated exactly for arbitrary system size $Ltimes M$ and temperature. We start with the dimer method of Kasteleyn, McCoy & Wu, construct a highly symmetric block transfer matrix and derive a factorization of the involved determinant, effectively decomposing the free energy of the system into two parts, $F(L,M)=F_mathrm{strip}(L,M)+F_mathrm{strip}^mathrm{res}(L,M)$, where the residual part $F_mathrm{strip}^mathrm{res}(L,M)$ contains the nontrivial finite-$L$ contributions for fixed $M$. It is given by the determinant of a $frac{M}{2}times frac{M}{2}$ matrix and can be mapped onto an effective spin model with $M$ Ising spins and long-range interactions. While $F_mathrm{strip}^mathrm{res}(L,M)$ becomes exponentially small for large $L/M$ or off-critical temperatures, it leads to important finite-size effects such as the critical Casimir force near criticality. The relations to the Casimir potential and the Casimir force are discussed.
We report the observation of the homogenous nucleation of crystals in a dense layer of steel spheres confined between two horizontal plates vibrated vertically. Above a critical vibration amplitude, two-layer crystals with square symmetry were found to coexist in steady state with a surrounding granular liquid. By analogy to equilibrium hard sphere systems, the phase behavior can be explained through entropy maximization. However, dramatic non-equilibrium effects are present, including a significant difference in the granular temperatures of the two phases.

Based on the results published recently [J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 50, 065201 (2017)], the universal finite-size contributions to the free energy of the square lattice Ising model on the $Ltimes M$ rectangle, with open boundary conditions in both dire ctions, are calculated exactly in the finite-size scaling limit $L,Mtoinfty$, $Tto T_mathrm{c}$, with fixed temperature scaling variable $xpropto(T/T_mathrm{c}-1)M$ and fixed aspect ratio $rhopropto L/M$. We derive exponentially fast converging series for the related Casimir potential and Casimir force scaling functions. At the critical point $T=T_mathrm{c}$ we confirm predictions from conformal field theory by Cardy & Peschel [Nucl. Phys. B 300, 377 (1988)] and by Kleban & Vassileva [J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 24, 3407 (1991)]. The presence of corners and the related corner free energy has dramatic impact on the Casimir scaling functions and leads to a logarithmic divergence of the Casimir potential scaling function at criticality.

Based on the results obtained in [Hucht, J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 50, 065201 (2017)], we show that the partition function of the anisotropic square lattice Ising model on the $L times M$ rectangle, with open boundary conditions in both directions, is given by the determinant of a $M/2 times M/2$ Hankel matrix, that equivalently can be written as the Pfaffian of a skew-symmetric $M times M$ Toeplitz matrix. The $M-1$ independent matrix elements of both matrices are Fourier coefficients of a certain symbol function, which is given by the ratio of two characteristic polynomials. These polynomials are associated to the different directions of the system, encode the respective boundary conditions, and are directly related through the symmetry of the considered Ising model under exchange of the two directions. The results can be generalized to other boundary conditions and are well suited for the analysis of finite-size scaling functions in the critical scaling limit using SzegH{o}s theorem.
