The critical temperature $T_{cr}$(Ising) is DS-computable

TL;DR
The paper proves that Dobrushin-Shlosman (DS) uniqueness conditions precisely delineate the supercritical regime of the $d$-dimensional Ising model, establishing that the supremum of finite-box DS thresholds $eta_V$ equals the model's critical inverse temperature $eta_{ ext{cr}}(d)$. It introduces dependence coefficients via Kantorovich (KR) distance to quantify how boundary spins influence interior spins, and uses a Ding-Song-Sun covariance inequality to connect this boundary influence to decay of correlations. Consequently, the critical temperature becomes constructive: one can compute $T_{ ext{cr}}(d)$ to arbitrary precision by checking finite-box $C_V$ conditions. The results align with and extend previous constructive approaches, showing DS criteria exhaust the phase-transition boundary for the Ising model.
Abstract
We show that the Dobrushin-Shlosman conditions CV for the uniqueness of the Gibbs state provide the exact value for the critical temperature of the d-dimensional Ising model.
