On the Ising Model with Random Boundary Condition

Abstract: We study the nearest-neighbour Ising model with a class of random boundary conditions, chosen from a symmetric i.i.d. distribution. We show for dimensions 4 and higher that almost surely the only limit points for a sequence of increasing cubes are the plus and the minus state. For d=2 and d=3 we prove a similar result for sparse sequences of increasing cubes. This question was raised by Newman and Stein. Our results imply that the Newman-Stein metastate is concentrated on the plus and the minus state.

“…In order to control the contributions from these contours, we need to perform a multiscale analysis, along the lines of [14], with some large deviation estimates on the probability of these exceptional boundary conditions. We obtain in this way the following Propositions, corresponding to Propositions 3.1-3.2 [10]:…”

“…We will distinguish the ensemble of plus-configurations Ω Λ + in which the spins outside of the exterior contours are plus and similarly the ensemble of minus-configurations Ω Λ − . When a contour ends at the boundary and separates one corner from the rest, this corner is defined to be in the interior, and for contours separating at least two corners from at least two other corners (these are interfaces of some sort) we can make a consistent choice for what we call the interior, see [9,10]. It will turn out that our results do not depend on our precise choice.…”
