19. The conclusion that stripes can appear in an Ising model with longer-range interaction was reached by LÖW U., EMERY V. J., FABRICIUS K. and KIVELSON S., Phys. Rev. Lett., 72 (1994) 1918, who, however, had in mind a different physics - that of frustrated phase separation due to long-range Coulomb forces [8], The physics closest to ours was invoked by KUSMARTSEV F. V., Phys. Rev. Lett., 84 (2000) 530, who suggested that the effective lattice-mediated attraction between polarons plus the Coulomb repulsion may lead to a formation of polaron strings of finite length. He, however, did not consider the anisotropic nature of the effective elastic interactions, which is crucial for our treatment.
