Abstract

We consider a model of a two-dimensional interface of the (continuous) SOS type, with finite-range, strictly convex interactions. We prove that, under an arbitrarily weak pinning potential, the interface is localized. We consider the cases of both square well and δ potentials. Our results extend and generalize previous results for the case of nearest-neighbours Gaussian interactions in [7] and [11]. We also obtain the tail behaviour of the height distribution, which is not Gaussian.
