    Certain properties of the amoeba of a complex hypersurface are studied. Note that the amoeba of a complex hypersurface is its image under the logarithmic projection. The advantages of using amoebas in statistical physics by considering the problem of energy distribution in a quantum thermodynamic ensemble are shown. The authors generalize and develop the asypmtotic Darwin-Fowler method to the multidimensional setting, and give the description of the domain of admissible average values of energy for which the thermodynamic limit exist. For this reason a notion of an amoeba of a general complex hyperspace is introduced.
