This work considers some exactly soluble lattice models in order to discuss modern methods and concepts in statistical mechanics. The behaviour of systems are illustrated as dilute antiferromagnets, spin glasses, and modulated magnets and alloys. Specific examples are included.
At present, existing literature on this subject matter can only be said to relate in minor areas to this work. Important concepts in statistical mechanics, such as frustration, localization, Lifshitz and Griffiths singularities, multicritical points, modulated phases, superselection sectors, spontaneous symmetry breaking and the Haldane phase, strange attractors and the Hausdorff dimension, and many others, are illustrated by exactly soluble lattice models. There are examples of simple lattice models which are shown to give rise to spectacular phase diagrams, with multicritical points and sequences of modulated phases. The models are chosen to enable a concise exposition as well as a connection with real physical systems (as dilute antiferromagnets, spin glasses and modulated magnets). A brief introduction to the properties of dynamical systems, an overview of conformal invariance and the Bethe Ansatz and a discussion of some general methods of statistical mechanics related to spontaneous symmetry breaking, are included in the appendices. A number of exercises are included in the text to help the comprehension of the most representative issues.

Dilute systems; lattice models with competing interactions; spin glasses; quantum lattice systems with competing interactions; a brief introduction to dynamical system; the theorems of Aubry; Bethe Ansatz and conformal invariance; unicity of phases, unicity in a sector, and spontaneous symmetry breaking.
