While previous models deal with the block magnetization for a fixed number of blocks, we study the the simultaneous limit $N\\to\\infty$ and $s_N\\to\\infty$. The model interpolates between Curie-Weiss model for $s_N=1$, multi-species mean field for fixed $s_N=s$, and the 1D Ising model for each spin in its own block at $s_N=N$.\r\n  Under mild growth conditions on $s_N$, we prove a law of large numbers and a multivariate CLT with covariance given by the lattice Green's function. For instance, the high temperature CLT essentially covers the optimal range up to $s_N=o(N/(\\log N)^c)$ and the low temperature regime is new even for fixed number of blocks $s > 2$. In addition to the standard competition between entropy and energy, a new obstacle in the proofs is a curse of dimensionality as $s_N \\to \\infty$."}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"_id":"64816","user_id":"113768","title":"The infinite block spin Ising model","year":"2026","status":"public","author":[{"id":"113768","orcid":"0000-0001-9624-2685","first_name":"Jonas","last_name":"Jalowy","full_name":"Jalowy, Jonas"},{"first_name":"Isabel","last_name":"Lammers","full_name":"Lammers, Isabel"},{"first_name":"Matthias","last_name":"Löwe","full_name":"Löwe, Matthias"}],"date_updated":"2026-03-03T08:49:33Z"}]
