Abstract

We develop a high-temperature expansion for general lattice systems which can be applied to classical as well as quantum systems. Applying the expansion we prove analyticity of correlation functions, uniqueness of equilibrium states, and cluster properties for classical and quantum lattice systems in the high-temperature region.
