Random spin systems with long-range interactions

From MaRDI portal





The author surveys the present state of the study of random spin systems, that is, the potentials are random. The most interesting phenomenon of the subject is the absence of phase transitions for long-range interactions with a very slow decay for which the phase transitions do occur in purely ferromagnetic systems. The paper starts from general results on the existence of the thermodynamics, then goes to the uniqueness problem at higher temperature. Finally, some more specific study on the low-temperature region, especially on the use of the mean field models of random systems, is introduced to show the occurrence of different phases. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0881.00017].
