Abstract

We provide a variational description of nearest-neighbours and next-to-nearest neighbours binary lattice systems. By studying the Γ-limit of proper scaling of the energies of the systems, we highlight phase and anti-phase boundary phenomena and show how they depend on the geometry of the lattice.
