Description
Many natural systems display striped morphologies and many
different models have
been proposed to explain this phenomenon. I will discuss a
universal explanation
for why stripes occur at low temperatures in systems with
isotropic interactions.
Further I show that similar arguments can be used to explain
the patterns that can
occur as ground states for many particle systems interacting
with pairwise central forces.
