Abstract
We consider an Ising spin system with ferromagnetic pair interactions. Combining the old Griffiths inequalities with the recent Fortuin-Kasteleyn-Ginibre inequalities we obtain some new bounds on the correlations and thermodynamic functions. These bounds appear to be of interest in the neighborhood of the two-phase region of these systems, , ( is the reciprocal of the critical temperature, and is the external magnetic field), where they yield relations between singularities in the spontanuous magnetization and the susceptibility : e.g., is upper semicontinuous, and a discontinuity in at implies that the susceptibility cannot be bounded (near ) by an integrable function of as from the left. We also find some inequalities among the critical indices.
