Correlation inequalities for the Potts model

Abstract

Correlation inequalities are presented for ferromagnetic Potts models with external field, using the random-cluster representation of Fortuin and Kasteleyn, together with the FKG inequality. These results extend and simplify earlier inequalities of Ganikhodjaev and Razak, and also of Schonmann, and include GKS-type inequalities when the spin-space is taken as the set of qth roots of unity.
