Abstract
We generalize the Ising spin σi to a function σ(xi), which is a mapping from [-a, a] into [-1, 1]. We obtain low-temperature expansions of the free energy, the correlation length and so on for a system of σ(xi) with nearest-neighbor interaction on a one-dimensional lattice. The critical behavior of the system is determined by the nature of σ(xi) around its maximum absolute value.Keywords
