Title: Transition of the simple random walk on the graph of the ice-model

Abstract: The 6-vertex model is a seminal model for many domains in Mathematics and Physics. The sets of configurations of the 6-vertex model can be described as the sets of paths in multigraphs. In this article the transition probability of the simple random walk on the multigraphs is computed. The unexpected point of the results is the use of continuous fractions to compute the transition probability. This is joint work with Xavier Bressaud.

The talk will be followed by refreshments in the Huxley Common Room at 5pm.
