Uniqueness of the Gibbs measure at activity squared four

At least 6 years old · documented by

Let DD denote the activity parameter of the high-density hard-core model on Z3\mathbb{Z}^3, and let a Gibbs measure be an infinite-volume equilibrium measure for this model. Uniqueness conjecture. For D2=4D^2=4 there is a unique Gibbs measure. The conjecture concerns the phase-transition behaviour at the threshold where the Peierls bound fails and many periodic configurations occur; whether the Gibbs measure is unique at this parameter remains open.
