Abstract
We consider a one-dimensional model with infinite-range interaction, a two-dimensional model, and a three-dimensional model, whose free energies can be expressed in terms of the largest eigenvalue of an integral equation. High- and low-temperature expansions in powers of the reciprocal of the range of the exponential part of the interaction, with the classical Curie-Weiss theory as leading term, are developed and studied in the critical region. We find that to leading order in the critical region the resummed high-and low-temperature expansions are analytic at the classical critical point but are nonanalytic at a displaced critical point. The modified singularities, which are no longer of Cu..
