Correlation comparisons and critical curves for disordered XY models

RESUMO

We prove a lower comparison for disorder-averaged ferromagnetic XY correlations: independent nonnegative random couplings $K_e$ can be replaced by $-\frac12\log\mathbb{E}e^{-2K_e}$. Ginibre's inequality makes each normalized correlation convex in $1-e^{-2K_e}$, so conditional Jensen and thinning compare Bernoulli bond densities; two star-wise Jensen passes handle site dilution on bipartite graphs. Together with the phase-existence theorem of Dario and Garban, these comparisons give local Lipschitz regularity of both the averaged algebraic-phase and susceptibility-divergence thresholds throughout the supercritical density intervals on $\mathbb{Z}^2$. The clean finite-domain criterion of van Engelenburg and Lis also yields explicit finite-size susceptibility lower bounds in a weak-dilution region. For bounded centered bond noise, the possible suppression of the algebraic-phase temperature is at most quadratic in the noise amplitude. Finally, at finite positive thresholds we prove total-variation continuity for bounded iid coupling laws whose essential supremum equals the common support cap, with local Lipschitz control when the reference law has an atom at that cap.
