Grassmann Variables and Exact Solutions for Two-Dimensional Dimer Models

R. Hayn, V. N. Plechko

We discuss some aspects of a new noncombinatorial fermionic approach to the two-dimensional dimer problem in statistical mechanics based on the integration over anticommuting Grassmann variables and factorization ideas for dimer density matrix. The dimer partition function can be expressed as a Gaussian fermionic integral. For regular lattices, the analytic solution then follows by passing to the momentum space for fermions.

Fermions and Correlations in the Two-Dimensional Ising Model

V. N. Plechko

The anticommuting analysis with Grassmann variables is applied to the two-dimensional Ising model in statistical mechanics. The discussion includes the transformation of the partition function into a Gaussian fermionic integral, the momentum-space representation and the spin-fermion correspondence at the level of the correlation functions.

The use of anticommuting variable integrals in statistical mechanics. I. The computation of partition functions

Stuart Samuel

Integrals over anticommuting variables are use to rewrite partition functions as fermionic field theories. The method is used to solve the two-dimensional Ising model, the planar close-packed dimer problems, and the free-fermion eight vertex model.
