Consider the equilibrium state of a statistical system with infinite DOF at a finite temperature T. For example, a Heisenberg ferromagnet with Hamiltonian H=−J∑i,jsi⋅sj
However, if the temperature T is greater than a critical value Tc, then the equilibrium state respects the symmetry of the Hamiltonian. And if $T
I want to make this picture mathematically precise. Can we describe the equilibrium state, in general, at temperature T irrespective of whether T>Tc or $T
How can I mathematically describe the equilibrium configuration so that I can explicitly see (like in Eqn. (1)) it breaks rotational invariance (symmetry of the Hamiltonian) for $T
