We study interfaces for four spin models on a lattice: the Ising model at low temperature, the Potts model at critical point, a continuous symmetry model and its associated clock approximation. For each model, we use specific boundary conditions that force the existence of an interface; related Gibbs measures then satisfy the so-called chessboard estimates, which are powerful correlation inequalities. These estimates are a simple way to show that such interfaces are rigid, in the sense that they deviate only locally from a perfect hyperplane. This method is a restricted version of the so-called reflection positivity method, since reflections in certain directions are forbidden by the chosen boundary conditions.In the case of Ising and Potts...
