Thermodynamic limit on the graph of Zigzag diagrams

In this talk, I will first introduce the notions of Gibbs measures and thermodynamic limit on graded graphs, as they were defined by the Russian school (Vershik, Kerov, Olshanski,...). Then, I will present some results related to the thermodynamic limit on the graph of Zigzag diagrams: the latter is a graded graph whose set of vertices of degree n consists of words of length n-1 in two letters, and such that the edge structure is given by a simple combinatorial relation between words of consecutive lengths. This graph is related to the Young graph, and I will explain this relation by mapping paths on the graph of Zigzag diagrams to paths on the Young graph. " hide
