AbstractWe study a multi-group version of the mean-field Ising model, also called Curie–Weiss model. It is known that, in the high-temperature regime of this model, a central limit theorem holds for the vector of suitably scaled group magnetisations, that is, for the sum of spins belonging to each group. In this article, we prove a local central limit theorem for the group magnetisations in the high-temperature regime.

We consider the first passage percolation problem on the random graph with vertex set N x {0, 1}, edges joining vertices at a Euclidean distance equal to unity, and independent exponential edge weights. We provide a central limit theorem for the first passage times l n between the vertices (0, 0) and (n, 0), thus extending earlier results about the almost-sure convergence of l n / n as n → ∞. We use generating function techniques to compute the n-step transition kernels of a closely related Markov chain which can be used to explicitly calculate the asymptotic variance in the central limit theorem.
