铁磁Potts模型配分函数的近似
Approximating the partition function of the ferromagnetic Potts model
摘要:
我们提供的证据表明,它是计算上难以近似的铁磁q态Potts模型的配分函数时,q>2。具体来说,我们证明了分区函数是困难的复杂性类#RHPi_1下近似保持约简。因此,它是很难近似的分区函数,因为它是找到近似的解决方案,以广泛的计数问题,包括确定的数目,独立集在一个二分图。我们的证明利用了“随机簇”模型的一阶相变,这是一个概率分布图,是密切相关的q状态波茨模型。
英文摘要:
We provide evidence that it is computationally difficult to approximate the partition function of the ferromagnetic q-state Potts model when q>2. Specifically we show that the partition function is hard for the complexity class #RHPi_1 under approximation-preserving reducibility. Thus, it is as hard to approximate the partition function as it is to find approximate solutions to a wide range of counting problems, including that of determining the number of independent sets in a bipartite graph. Our proof exploits the first order phase transition of the "random cluster" model, which is a probability distribution on graphs that is closely related to the q-state Potts model.
