12. In very special circumstances, the variance can grow more slowly than the surface area. For example, for the infinite periodic square lattice and when (Formula presented) is a rectangle with a very irrational orientation with respect to the x axis, the variance grows as (Formula presented) see J.

It is interesting to note that for a related two-point correlation function that arises in the characterization of two-phase random media (i.e., binary stochastic spatial processes), it is known that the two analogous non-negativity conditions are necessary but not sufficient for realizability 15;
