On the Purity of the free boundary condition Potts measure on random   trees
  We consider the free boundary condition Gibbs measure of the Potts model on a random tree. We provide an explicit temperature interval below the ferromagnetic transition temperature for which this measure is extremal, improving older bounds of Mossel and Peres. In information theoretic language extremality of the Gibbs measure corresponds to non-reconstructability for symmetric q-ary channels. The bounds are optimal for the Ising model and appear to be close to what we conjecture to be the true values up to a factor of 0.0150 in the case q = 3 and 0.0365 for q = 4. Our proof uses an iteration of random boundary entropies from the outside of the tree to the inside, along with a symmetrization argument.
