Using quantitative perturbation theory for linear operators, we prove a spectral gap for transfer operators of various families of intermittent maps with almost constant potentials (‘high-temperature’ regime). Hölder and bounded $p$-variation potentials are treated, in each case under a suitable assumption on the map, but the method should apply more generally. It is notably proved that for any Pommeau–Manneville map, any potential with Lipschitz constant less than 0.0014 has a transfer operator acting on $\operatorname{Lip}([0,1])$ with a spectral gap; and that for any two-to-one unimodal map, any potential with total variation less than 0.0069 has a transfer operator acting on $\operatorname{BV}([0,1])$ with a spectral gap. We also prove under quite general hypotheses that the classical definition of spectral gap coincides with the formally stronger one used in Giulietti et al [The calculus of thermodynamical formalism. J. Eur. Math. Soc., to appear. Preprint, 2015, arXiv:1508.01297], allowing all results there to be applied under the high-temperature bounds proved here: analyticity of pressure and equilibrium states, central limit theorem, etc.

The integral representations for the partition functions of Ising models are surveyed. The connection with the underlying fermion field in the two-dimensional case is discussed. The relation between the low and the high-temperature expansions is examined.

We consider a Glauber-type stochastic dynamics of continuous particle systems in ℝd. We construct a one-particle invariant subspace of the generator of this dynamics in the high temperature and low density regime. We prove that under some additional assumptions on the decay of the potential the restriction of the generator on the one-particle subspace is unitary equivalent to the operator of the multiplication by a bounded smooth real-valued function. As a consequence we estimate the spectral gap of the generator and find the second gap between the one-particle branch and the rest of the spectrum.

It is shown that Glauber's methods are appropriate to the high temperature limit for a stochastic spin system and can be applied to models with arbitrary spin interactions in this limit.
