Loss without recovery of Gibbsianness during diffusion of continuous spins
Abstract
We consider a specific continuous-spin Gibbs distribution for a double-well potential that allows for ferromagnetic ordering. We study the time-evolution of this initial measure under independent diffusions. For `high temperature' initial measures we prove that the time-evoved measure is Gibbsian for all . For `low temperature' initial measures we prove that stays Gibbsian for small enough times , but loses its Gibbsian character for large enough . In contrast to the analogous situation for discrete-spin Gibbs measures, there is no recovery of the Gibbs property for large in the presence of a non-vanishing external magnetic field. All of our results hold for any dimension . This example suggests more generally that time-evolved continuous-spin models tend to be non-Gibbsian more easily than their discrete-spin counterparts.
