Choo and Siow (2006) [7] proposed a model for the marriage market which allows for random identically distributed McFadden-type noise in the preferences of each of the participants. In this note we exhibit a strictly convex function whose derivatives vanish precisely at the equilibria of their...

In 1968 we published the solution of the ground state energy and wave function of the one-dimensional Hubbard model, and we also showed that there is no Mott transition in this model. Details of the analysis have never been published, however. As the Hubbard model has become increasingly...

We rigorously establish some exact properties of reflection symmetric spin systems with antiferromagnetic crossing bonds: At least one ground state has total spin zero and a positive semidefinite coefficient matrix. The crossing bonds obey an ice rule. This augments some previous results which...

Some reflections about open problems in statistical mechanics are offered on the occasion of the award of the IUPAP Boltzmann medal.

A quantum mechanical lattice model of fermionic electrons interacting with infinitely massive nuclei is considered. (It can be viewed as a modified Hubbard model in which the spin-up electrons are not allowed to hop.) The electron-nucleus potential is “on-site” only. Neither this potential...
