Abstract
Analysis of finite-size corrections for the surface tension and surface stiffness coefficients in two-dimensional models with inclined interfaces is presented. We obtain a universal leading contribution proportional to (lnL)/L for the 2D system of sizeL. By explicit calculations for restricted and unrestricted solid-on-solid models and the square lattice Ising model, we demonstrate the Gaussian nature of rough interfaces with fixed ends, and derive the leading 1/L-type corrections for appropriate surface quantities.
