First, we study the geometry of a class of exploration sets, called <i>exit sets</i>, which are naturally associated with a 2D vector-valued Gaussian Free Field : <span>(phi : mathbb {Z}^2 rightarrow mathbb {R}^N, Nge 1)</span>. We prove that, somewhat surprisingly, these sets are a.s. degenerate as long as <span>(Nge 2)</span>, while they are conjectured to be macroscopic and fractal when <span>(N=1)</span>. This analysis allows us, when <span>(Nge 2)</span>, to understand the percolation properties of the level sets of <span>({ Vert phi (x)Vert _{{2}}, xin mathbb {Z}^2})</span> and leads us to our second main motivation in this work: if one projects a spin <span>(O(N+1))</span> model (the case <span>(N=2)</span> corresponds to the classical Heisenberg model) down to a spin <i>O</i>(<i>N</i>) model, we end up with a spin <i>O</i>(<i>N</i>) in a quenched disorder given by random conductances on <span>(mathbb {Z}^2)</span>. Using the <i>exit sets</i> of the <i>N</i>-vector-valued GFF, we obtain a local and geometric description of this random disorder in the limit <span>(beta rightarrow infty )</span>. This allows us in particular to revisit a series of celebrated works by Patrascioiu and Seiler (J Stat Phys 69(3):573–595, 1992, Nucl Phys B Proc Suppl 30:184–191, 1993, J Stat Phys 106(3):811–826, 2002) which argued against Polyakov’s prediction that spin <span>(O(N+1))</span> model is massive at all temperatures as long as <span>(Nge 2)</span> (Polyakov in Phys Lett B 59(1):79–81, 1975). We make part of their arguments rigorous and more importantly we provide the following counter-example: we build ergodic environments of (arbitrary) high conductances with (arbitrary) small and disconnected regions of low conductances in which, despite the predominance of high conductances, the <i>XY</i> model remains massive. Of independent interest, we prove that at high <span>(beta )</span>, the fluctuations of a classical Heisenberg model near a north pointing spin are given by a <span>(N=2)</span> vectorial GFF. This is implicit for example in Polyakov (1975) but we give here the first (non-trivial) rigorous proof. Also, independently of the recent work Dubédat and Falconet (Random clusters in the villain and xy models, arXiv preprint arXiv:2210.03620, 2022), we show that two-point correlation functions of the spin <i>O</i>(<i>N</i>) model can be given in terms of certain percolation events in the <i>cable graph</i> for any <span>(Nge 1)</span>.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":522,"journal":{"name":"Communications in Mathematical Physics","volume":"406 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00220-024-05208-y.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142994805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
