Ising models on power-law random graphs (Q616207)

The behaviour of a probabilistic model for Ising spins set on the vertices of some random graphs is investigated as the number of vertices grows to infinity. The spins have Boltzmann distribution under an exterior magnetic field. The article's notations and scope follow closely those of [\textit{A. Dembo} and \textit{A. Montanari}, Ann. Appl. Probab. 20, No. 2, 565--592 (2010; Zbl 1191.82025)]. The main result is an analytical formula for the thermodynamic limit of the pressure which extends the results of Dembo and Montanari to more general graphs with a tree structure. The style is clear and the paper should be very easy to read for people already familiar with random graph theory.
