In this talk we present the exact solution of the most general one-dimensional O(N)-invariant spin model taking values in the sphere S-N-1, with nearest-neighbour interactions, and we discuss the possible continuum limits. All these results are obtained using a high-temperature expansion in terms of hyperspherical harmonics. Applications in higher dimensions of the same technique are then discussed.

Abstract
In this talk we present the exact solution of the most general one-dimensional O(N)-invariant spin model taking values in the sphere S-N-1, with nearest-neighbour interactions, and we discuss the possible continuum limits. All these results are obtained using a high-temperature expansion in terms of hyperspherical harmonics. Applications in higher dimensions of the same technique are then discussed.File in questo prodotto:
