Abstract: The continuum random cluster model is defined as a Gibbs modification of the stationary Boolean model in mathbbRd with intensity z>0 and the law of radii Q. The formal unormalized density is given by qNcc where q>0 is a fixed parameter and Ncc the number of connected components in the random germ-grain structure. In this paper we prove the existence of the model in the infinite volume regime for a large class of parameters including the case q<1 or distributions Q without compact support. In the extreme setting of non integrable radii (i.e. intRdQ(dR)=infty) and q is an integer larger than 1, we prove that for z small enough the continuum random cluster model is not unique; two different probability measures solve the DLR equations. We conjecture that the uniqueness is recovered for z large enough which would provide a phase transition result. Heuristic arguments are given. Our main tools are the compactness of level sets of the specific entropy, a fine study of the quasi locality of the Gibbs kernels and a Fortuin-Kasteleyn representation via Widom-Rowlinson models with random radii.
