Isn't it "trivial" to represent/reduce any classical physics problem into a Spin-Glass which is NP-Complete?
In the late 80's there were several highly cited efforts to use Spin-Glass models to formulate other computational problems such as: Protein Folding and Neural Networks.
Isn't it straight forward to ...

Which complexity information of Ising model is more important?
In 1982, Barahona proved that finding the ground state of an Ising model is NP-hard. Later, in 2000, Istrail proved that it is NP-complete. When I look up the citations of these two papers using ...
