Synopsis

This outstanding new work brings together the author's own important results with the recent brilliant work by Fröhlich, Simon and Spencer (on the existence of order in the classical Heisenberg model) and an account of continuous symmetries in the lattice gauge models. Every fact is set out with such completeness that the reader can grasp the major problems of various topics in the theory of phase transitions. For graduate students and research workers in mathematics and theoretical physics. Contents: Limit Gibbs distributions; Phase diagrams for classical lattice systems; Peierls's method of contours; Lattice systems with continuous symmetry; Phase transitions of the second kind and the renormalization group method.
