Abstract

We find an exact mapping from the generalized Ising models with many-spin interactions to equivalent Boltzmann machines, i.e., the models with only two-spin interactions between physical and auxiliary binary variables accompanied by local external fields. More precisely, the appropriate combination of the algebraic transformations, namely the star-triangle and decoration-iteration transformations, allows one to express the model in terms of fewer-spin interactions at the expense of the degrees of freedom. Furthermore, the benefit of the mapping in Monte Carlo simulations is discussed. In particular, we demonstrate that the application of the method in conjunction with the Swendsen-Wang algorithm drastically reduces the critical slowing down in a model with two- and three-spin interactions on the Kagomé lattice.

XXZ -Ising model on the triangular kagome lattice with spin 1 on the decorated trimers

Chengkang Zhou, Yuanwei Feng, Jiawei Ruan +1 more

We consider the triangular kagome XXZ-Ising model (TKL XXZ-Ising model) formed by inserting small triangles ("a-trimers") with XXZ spin-1 inside the triangles of the kagome lattice ("b-trimers"). It is a mixed spin system and can be solved exactly by transforming into the kagome lattice with the general transformation method for decorated spin systems. In the absence of an external field, we integrate out the quantum spins of the a-trimers and map the TKL model to the kagome Ising model exactly. We obtain the full phase diagram and their zero-temperature entropies (e.g., s_{max}=5.48895 per unit cell is given for the phase with the maximum entropy). When an external field is applied, 20 phases are found due to the quantum fluctuations of a-trimers. Moreover, the high spins in the a-trimers can lead to a stable quantized growth of the magnetization process in the Heisenberg limit.

Exact results of a general spin-1 model on 2D decorated lattices

Xiang‐Dong Mi, Zhucheng Yang

By the decoration-iteration transformation, we find a general relation between interaction parameters of a general spin-1 model on any lattice with unique coordination number and on its decorated lattice. We obtain three exact phase transition points of the general spin-1 model on two-dimensional decorated lattices in terms of the exact results of the model on corresponding two-dimensional regular lattices, including the triangle, square, kagome and honeycomb lattices. We find the critical temperatures have no exact relation with the average coordination number and the type of coordination number for both the Ising model and the general spin-1 model.

Transformations of Ising Models

Michael Ellis Fisher

The "star-triangle" and "decoration" transformations are generalized so as to apply to arbitrary mechanical systems coupled to the spins of a standard Ising net. This leads to exact solutions for further plane Ising nets and also for lattices in which the spins on alternate sites have a magnitude greater than $S=\frac{1}{2}$. A general class of antiferromagnetic Ising models is constructed; exact closed expressions can be derived for all the thermodynamic and magnetic properties of these models in an arbitrary magnetic field.The magnetizations and susceptibilities of Ising nets in which different spins have different magnetic moments are investigated and a valuable relation between the susceptibilities of the honeycomb and triangular lattices is derived. It is shown how correlation functions involving a given spin can be expressed in terms of correlations involving the nearest-neighbor spins instead.

A distant descendant of the six-vertex model

Vladimir V. Bazhanov, С. М. Сергеев

In this paper we present a new solution of the star-triangle relation having positive Boltzmann weights. The solution defines an exactly solvable two-dimensional Ising-type (edge interaction) model of statistical mechanics where the local “spin variables” can take arbitrary integer values, i.e., the number of possible spin states at each site of the lattice is infinite. There is also an equivalent “dual” formulation of the model, where the spins take continuous real values on the circle. From algebraic point of view this model is closely related to the to the 6-vertex model. It is connected with the construction of an intertwiner for two infinite-dimensional representations of the quantum affine algebra Uq(slˆ(2)) without the highest and lowest weights. The partition function of the model in the large lattice limit is calculated by the inversion relation method. Amazingly, it coincides with the partition function of the off-critical 8-vertex free-fermion model.

Exact solution in an external magnetic field of Ising models with three-spin interactions

Luke Lokia Liu, Eugene Stanley

The three-spin interaction Hamiltonian ${\mathcal{H}}^{(3)}\ensuremath{\equiv}\ensuremath{-}{J}_{3}\ensuremath{\Sigma}{〈\mathrm{ijk}〉}^{}{s}_{i}{\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{j}{\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{k}\ensuremath{-}H\ensuremath{\Sigma}{i}^{}{s}_{i}\ensuremath{-}{H}^{\ensuremath{'}}\ensuremath{\Sigma}{j}^{}{\ensuremath{\sigma}}_{j}$ (the $s$ and $\ensuremath{\sigma}$ spins belong to different sublattices) is solved for some two-dimensional lattices by a generalized star-triangle transformation. The ${H}^{\ensuremath{'}}=0$ internal energy, specific heat, and magnetization are explicitly calculated, and the singularity structures of other functions (e.g.$x$ are studied. Although the actual critical-point exponents remain the same as for systems with two-spin interaction, the three-spin interaction gives rise to different amplitude and background terms. In particular, the ${H}^{\ensuremath{'}}=0$ magnetization is nonzero for all finite $T$, because of the lack of spin-reversal symmetry; the diameter is seen explicitly to have an energy singlularity, with critical exponent $1\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\alpha}$.

Nature of intermediate magnetization plateaus of a spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on a triangulated Husimi lattice resembling a triangulated kagome lattice

Jozef Strečka, Cesur Ekiz

The spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on a triangulated Husimi lattice is exactly solved in a magnetic field within the framework of the generalized star-triangle transformation and the method of exact recursion relations. The generalized star-triangle transformation establishes an exact mapping correspondence with the effective spin-1/2 Ising model on a triangular Husimi lattice with a temperature-dependent field, pair and triplet interactions, which is subsequently rigorously treated by making use of exact recursion relations. The ground-state phase diagram of a spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on a triangulated Husimi lattice, which bears a close resemblance with a triangulated kagomé lattice, involves, in total, two classical and three quantum ground states manifested in respective low-temperature magnetization curves as intermediate plateaus at 1/9, 1/3, and 5/9 of the saturation magnetization. It is verified that the fractional magnetization plateaus of quantum nature have character of either dimerized or trimerized ground states. A low-temperature magnetization curve of the spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on a triangulated Husimi lattice resembling a triangulated kagome lattice may exhibit either no intermediate plateau, a single 1/3 plateau, a single 5/9 plateau, or a sequence of 1/9, 1/3, and 5/9 plateaus depending on a character and relative size of two considered coupling constants.
