We discuss various aspects concerning stochastic domination for the Ising model and the fuzzy Potts model. We begin by considering the Ising model on the homogeneous tree of degree $d$, $\mathbb{T}^d$. For given interaction parameters $J_1$, $J_2>0$ and external field…

We consider a two-type contact process on the integers. Both types have equal finite range and supercritical infection rate. We show that a given type becomes extinct with probability 1 if and only if, in the initial configuration, it is…
