Popis: We obtain new properties of general d-dimensional lattice ferromagnetic spin systems with nearest neighbor interactions in the high-temperature region (β≪1). Each model is characterized by a single-site a priori spin distribution, taken to be even. We state our results in terms of the parameter α=〈s4〉−3〈s2〉2, where 〈sk〉 denotes the kth moment of the a priori distribution. Associated with the model is a lattice quantum field theory which is known to contain particles. We show that for α>0, β small, there exists a bound state with mass below the two-particle threshold. The existence of the bound state has implications for the decay of correlations, i.e., the 4-point functions decay at a slower rate than twice that of the 2-point function. These results are obtained using a lattice version of the Bethe–Salpeter equation. The existence results generalize to N-component models with rotationally invariant a priori spin distributions.
