 e Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless (BKT) transition in the two-dimensio
 nal XY model stands as the first example of a topological phase transition
  outside of the celebrated Landau paradigm. In this talk\, I will first in
 troduce the XY model and provide an intuitive derivation of the BKT transi
 tion based on a Landau–Peierls–type argument. This perspective highlig
 hts how spin waves destabilize long-range order and how the decoupling of 
 vortices drives a qualitatively new type of phase transition. Further\, I 
 will turn to a more realistic setting by incorporating long-range interact
 ions\, which are frequently encountered in experimental systems. I will an
 alyze the effect of long-range interactions on the model and argue that th
 e essential features of the BKT transition remain robust\, persisting even
  in the presence of arbitrary long-range interactions.
