We consider the Ising model with external field h and coupling constant J on an infinite connected graph G with uniformly bounded degree. We prove that if G is nonamenable, then the Ising model exhibits phase transition for some h≠0 and some J<∞. On the other hand, if G is amenable and quasi-transitive, then phase transition cannot occur for h≠0. In particular, a group is nonamenable if and only if the Ising model on one (all) of its Cayley graphs exhibits a phase transition for some h≠0 and some J<∞.
