[For the entire collection see Zbl 0733.00027.] The voter two-dimensional model is considered. Let \(\eta_ t\) be a Markov process with state space \(\Xi=\{0,1\}^{Z^ d}\). \(\eta_ t=1\) means that site \(x\) is occupied by particle at time \(t\), \(\eta_ t=0\) means that site \(x\) is vacant at time \(t\). Restricting in some natural way the dynamics of \(\eta_ t\) to \(\lambda(N)=[-N,N]^ d\cap Z^ d\) a Markov process \(\eta_ t^ N\) with state space \(\Xi^ N=\{0,1\}^{\lambda(N)}\) is constructed. The initial states for \(\eta_ t^ N\) are the restriction of the corresponding initial states of \(\eta_ t\). \(\eta_ t\) and \(\eta_ t^ N\) have different ergodic behaviour if \(d\) is more than some critical value. The authors presented in previous papers the method of comparing the long term behaviour of some probabilistic expectations for the processes \(\eta_ t\) and \(\eta_ t^ N\) (large finite system scheme). This scheme is not carried out if the finite and infinite systems apparently have the same ergodic behaviour. This case is realized for many models if \(d\) is sufficiently small. The authors present the suitably modified comparison scheme for low dimensional models and illustrate one on the special case of voter model.
