We systematically analyze the tensorial structure of the lattice pressure tensors for a class of multi-phase lattice Boltzmann models (LBM) with multi-range interactions. Due to lattice discrete effects, we show that the built-in isotropy properties of the lattice interaction forces are not necessarily mirrored in the corresponding lattice pressure tensor. This finding opens a different perspective for constructing forcing schemes, achieving the desired isotropy in the lattice pressure tensors via a suitable choice of multi-range potentials. As an immediate application, the obtained LBM forcing schemes are tested via numerical simulations of non-ideal equilibrium interfaces and are shown to yield weaker and less spatially extended spurious currents with respect to forcing schemes obtained by forcing isotropy requirements only. From a general perspective, the proposed analysis yields an approach for implementing forcing symmetries, never explored so far in the framework of the Shan-Chen method for LBM. We argue this will be beneficial for future studies of non-ideal interfaces.
