We study the behavior of the associated Gibbs measure as the inverse temperature approaches a critical value at which the partition function diverges. One of our main results shows that the Gibbs measure converges weakly to a probability measure supported on degenerate configurations in which certain subsets of particles collapse. We characterize the possible clusters in the limiting configurations in terms of the solutions of a discrete optimization problem, which also determines the critical inverse temperature. Our approach relies on the Fulton–MacPherson compactification of configuration spaces and meromorphic continuation of complex powers. For the two-component plasma with arbitrary charges, we solve the optimization problem explicitly and thereby obtain a complete description of the possible limiting clusters. In particular, the limiting measure is supported on configurations where a maximal number of positive–negative dipoles have formed. Allowing completely general charges is motivated in part by Onsager’s model of turbulence. In this context, we establish explicit probabilistic bounds for the critical inverse temperature in case of random coupling and charges, using general estimates expressed in terms of eigenvalues of the coupling matrix.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48860,"journal":{"name":"Analysis and Mathematical Physics","volume":"16 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s13324-026-01283-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149339547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
