Periodic Gibbs Measures for Models with Uncountable Set of Spin Values on a Cayley Tree (1302.6055v1)

Abstract: We consider models with nearest-neighbor interactions and with the set $[0,1]$ of spin values, on a Cayley tree of order $k\geq 1$. We study periodic Gibbs measures of the model with period two. For $k=1$ we show that there is no any periodic Gibbs measure. In case $k\geq 2$ we get a sufficient condition on Hamiltonian of the model with uncountable set of spin values under which the model have not any periodic Gibbs measure with period two. We construct several models which have at least two periodic Gibbs measures.
