Dimers on Rail Yard Graphs

Download to your calendar using vCal

If you have a question about this talk, please contact James Norris .

The dimer model is a model of statistical mechanics corresponding to perfect matchings on graphs. I will first give a survey of classical results about the dimer model on planar bipartite graphs.

Then I will introduce the class of rail yard graphs which generalizes several known models, such as the Aztec diamond or plane partitions. I will explain how to compute the partition function and the correlations for rail yard graphs using a transfer matrix approach.

This is joint work with Cédric Boutillier, Jérémie Bouttier, Guillaume Chapuy and Sylvie Corteel.

This talk is part of the Probability series.
