Hardcore and Ising models are two most important families of two state spin
systems in statistic physics. Partition function of spin systems is the center
concept in statistic physics which connects microscopic particles and their
interactions with their macroscopic and statistical properties of materials
such as energy, entropy, ferromagnetism, etc. If each local interaction of the
system involves only two particles, the system can be described by a graph. In
this case, fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for computing the
partition function of both hardcore and anti-ferromagnetic Ising model was
designed up to the uniqueness condition of the system. These result are the
best possible since approximately computing the partition function beyond this
threshold is NP-hard. In this paper, we generalize these results to general
physics systems, where each local interaction may involves multiple particles.
Such systems are described by hypergraphs. For hardcore model, we also provide
FPTAS up to the uniqueness condition, and for anti-ferromagnetic Ising model,
we obtain FPTAS where a slightly stronger condition holds
