A note on spatial monotonicity for one-dimensional spin systems

Probability 2015-10-13 v1

Abstract

We show that attractive, translation invariant, one-dimensional spin systems started from the unit step function possess the following basic property. At any time, the entire configuration from a point onward is stochastically decreasing with respect to distance from this point to the origin. The proof relies on a stochastic domination argument which exploits the interaction assumptions in a simple manner.
