The traditional method for the construction of the limiting Gibbs measure uses the thermodynamic limit of the finite volume correlation functions. These limiting correlation functions are defined implicitly as a solution of a system of linear integral equations of Kirkwood-Salzburg type.
We present an alternative approach based on a representation of both finite volume and limiting correlation functions via the same function which permits efficient bounds in terms of special graphs called forests. In particular we get a convergent expansion of the limiting correlation functions in powers of the activity.
