Abstract
We prove a simple, explicit lower bound on the radius of a zero-free disk for Gibbs point processes defined by finite-range, repulsive multi-body interactions. Our lower bound improves on those previously known, and we demonstrate that it is essentially sharp in the generality with which our arguments apply. The key ingredient is a multi-body generalization of integral identities for point densities of Gibbs point processes in the spirit of earlier work of Michelen and Perkins.
