| contents | We consider the phase ordering problem for the low-temperature Ising dynamics initialized from a biased and disordered initialization. Work of Fontes, Schonmann, Sidoravicius (2002) showed that at zero-temperature, Ising Glauber dynamics on $\mathbb Z^d$ for $d\ge 2$ initialized from i.i.d. spins on each vertex that are $+1$ with sufficiently large probability, absorbs into the all-plus configuration quickly. We prove that analogous behavior holds throughout the low-temperature regime of the Ising model in two dimensions. Namely, there exists $p_0 <1$ such that Ising Glauber dynamics initialized from i.i.d. spins that are $+1$ with probability $p>p_0$, run at any low temperature $β>β_c$ converges rapidly to the plus phase measure $π^+$.
The result is proved using a spacetime multiscale coupling valid in any $d\ge 2$, that boosts a uniform-in-$β$ quasi-polynomial bound on the mixing time of Ising dynamics with plus boundary conditions, into rapid phase ordering from biased initializations with no boundary conditions. |
