The Hamiltonian of a KDP‐type ferroelectric is formulated in terms of Pauli‐operators. Canonical and unitary transformations are applied which bring the Hamiltonian into a form suitable for the Green's function method analysis. The whole theory is linear in the small parameter η = Ω/ I (0). The low‐temperature expansion for the polarization is calculated (using the exact Bose‐representation of Pauli‐operators in the first approximation) exibiting T 2 and T 3 anharmonic corrections. In the case of high temperatures, the Curie‐Weiss law is reproduced with a transition temperature lower than in the mean‐field approximation.
