abstract = {Thin magnetic films at low temperatures show a wide range of ordering effects and related pattern-formation phenomena. The origins of these phenomena can often be traced to competition between the long ranged dipole-dipole interaction and short ranged exchange interactions. In this talk I will introduce a class of 2D discrete dipole models, describing different realizations of thin magnetic films. After reviewing the behavior of these models, as expected from MonteCarlo simulations and variational computations, I will discuss some recent rigorous results on the stripe-patterned nature of the ground states.},
