Abstract

In this paper, correlation inequalities which have been considered on Ising model are extended to q-Potts model. It is considered on generalized Potts model with interaction of any number of spins. We replace the set of spin values F={1,2,...,q}F=\{1,2,..., q\} by the centered set F={(q1)/2,(q3)/2,...,(q3)/2,(q1)/2}F=\{-(q-1)/2,-(q-3)/2,... ,(q-3)/2,(q-1)/2\}. Let NN be the subset of one-dimensional lattice with nn vertices, \g=(\s1,\s2,...,\sn):NFc\g=(\s_1,\s_2,...,\s_n):N \to F^c be a configuration where (\si)\g{(\s_i)}_\g is the number which appears as the ith spin (component) in \g\g and \si\s_i be a random variable whose value at \g\g is (\si)\g{(\s_i)}_\g. Define \sR=iR\si\s^R=\prod_{i \in R}\s_i for any list RR where any iRi \in R implies that iNi \in N. We first prove that <\sR>0<\s^R > \ge 0 then we prove that for any two lists RR and SS, we have <\sR\sS><\sR><\sS>0<\s^R \s^S >- < \s^R > < \s^S > \ge 0.
