Abstract
We show that the recently proposed confining string theory describes s mooth surfaces with long-range correlations for the normal components of tangent vectors. These long-range correlations arise as a consequen ce of a ''frustrated antiferromagnetic'' interaction whose two main fe atures are non-locality and a negative stiffness.
