Abstract

We discuss a Curie–Weiss model with two groups with different coupling constants within and between groups. For the total magnetisations in each group, we show bivariate laws of large numbers and a central limit theorem which is valid in the high-temperature regime. In the critical regime, the total magnetisation normalised by $$N^{3/4}$$ N 3 / 4 converges to a non-trivial distribution which is not Gaussian, just as in the single-group Curie–Weiss model. Finally, we prove a kind of a ‘law of large numbers’ in the low-temperature regime, more precisely we prove that the empirical magnetisation converges in distribution to a mixture of two Dirac measures.
