Abstract

We show that, for neutral systems of particles of arbitrary charges in two dimensions, with hard cores, coefficients of the Mayer series for the pressure exist in the thermodynamic limit below certain thresholds in the temperature. Our methods apply also to correlation functions and yield bounds on the asymptotic behavior of their Mayer coefficients.
