Abstract

The thermodynamics of a classical lattice gas in Ising form, with arbitrary interaction, is set up in entropy format, with multipoint magnetizations as control parameters. It is specialized to the case of one- and two-point interactions on a simply connected lattice; both entropy and profile equations are written down explicitly. Linear response functions are expressed in Wertheim-Baxter factorization and used to derive the Jacobian of the transformation from couplings to magnetizations. An arbitrary spin-glass coupling distribution is transformed to the corresponding magnetization distribution, whose effect on thermodynamic properties is assessed. A Gaussian coupling-fluctuation expansion diverges at sufficiently large fluctuation amplitude, suggesting the possibility of a phase transition.
