Abstract: We construct a new duality for two-dimensional Discrete Gaussian models. It is based on a known one-dimensional duality and on a mapping, implied by the Chinese remainder theorem, between the sites of an $NimesM$ torus and those of a ring of $NM$ sites. The duality holds for an arbitrary translation invariant interaction potential $v(mathbfr)$ between the height variables on the torus. It leads to pairs $(v,widetildev)$ of mutually dual potentials and to a temperature inversion according to $$. When $v(mathbfr)$ is isotropic, duality renders an anisotropic $widetildev$. This is the case, in particular, for the potential that is dual to an isotropic nearest-neighbor potential. In the thermodynamic limit this dual potential is shown to decay with distance according to an inverse square law with a quadrupolar angular dependence. There is a single pair of self-dual potentials $v^{s}tar=widetilde{v}^{s}tar$. At the self-dual temperature $$ the height-height correlation can be calculated explicitly; it is anisotropic and diverges logarithmically with distance.
