Abstract: | We show that the interface between two coexisting phases of theq-state clock model is wetted for any temperature by a stack of films of the phases corresponding to the intermediate angles, assumingq even andq4. This follows from the positivity of the spreading coefficients, which we prove using correlation inequalities. A small perturbation of the model exhibits a wetting transition in the low-temperature regime. |
