Abstract
We introduce a new stochastic representation of the partition function of the spin 1/2 Heisenberg ferromagnet. We express some of the releva nt thermodynamic quantities in terms of expectations of functionals of so-called random stirrings on Z(d). By use of this representation, we improve the lower bound on the pressure given by Conlon and Solovej i n Lett. Math. Phys. 23, 223-231 (1991).
