Solving the partition function and using a calculation of the free energy yields an equation describing the magnetization M of the system
for the function g defined as
The internal energy per site is given by
an exact relation relating internal energy and magnetization.

Famous quotes containing the words equation and/or state:
“A nation fights well in proportion to the amount of men and materials it has. And the other equation is that the individual soldier in that army is a more effective soldier the poorer his standard of living has been in the past.”

“And now the end is near
And so I face the final curtain,
I’ll state my case of which I’m certain.
I’ve lived a life that’s full, I traveled each and ev’ry highway,
And more, much more than this. I did it my way.”
—Frank Sinatra (b. 1915)
