Abstract

We consider one-dimensional systems of classical particles whose potential energy has the form: {Mathematical expression} The limit of the Gibbs state as T→0 is described in terms of invariant measures of two-dimensional mappings which are constructed with the help of Wα, γ. The dependence of these measures on parameters α, γ is investigated.
