Phase Coexistence for the Kac-Ising Models

  • Chapter
In and Out of Equilibrium

Part of the book series: Progress in Probability ((PRPR,volume 51))

Abstract

We derive the Wulff construction for Kac-Ising models with long but finite range interaction in dimensions d >/ 2. Some open problems concerning the phase coexistence for more general models are also discussed.
