The nonlocal model of short-range wetting
Recently, a Nonlocal Model was proposed that seems to overcome difficulties of the fluctuation theory of 3D wetting. In this thesis we explore this model in detail, laying the foundations for its use. We show how the model can be derived from a microscopic Hamiltonian by a careful coarse graining pr...
