Interfaces, modulated phases and textures in lattice systems

Statistical Mechanics 2021-06-11 v1

Abstract

We introduce a class of nn-dimensional (possibly inhomogeneous) spin-like lattice systems presenting modulated phases with possibly different textures. Such systems can be parameterized according to the number of ground states, and can be described by a phase-transition energy which we compute by means of variational techniques. Degeneracies due to frustration are also discussed.
