Abstract
We consider a ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor model on a Cayley tree of degree \(k\geqslant 2\) with uncountable local state space [0,1] where the energy function depends on a parameter 𝜃 ∈[0, 1). We show that for \(0\leqslant \theta \leqslant \frac {5}{3k}\) the model has a unique translation-invariant Gibbs measure. If \(\frac {5}{3k}<\theta <1\) there is a phase transition, in particular there are three translation-invariant Gibbs measures.
