The cumulant expansion in renormalization group transformations: the convergence question and the dependence upon cell size

Per Chr. Hemmer, Manuel G. Velárde

The Niemeijer-van Leeuwen (1973) cumulant expansion for calculation of renormalized interactions is carried to third order for the Ising model on the triangular lattice. Kadanoff cells containing three spins are used. Five types of pair interactions and three types of four-spin interaction enter the calculations. The renormalization equations have one non-trivial fixed point. The accuracy of the result for the corresponding relevant eigenvalues is, however, less than in second order. The idea that the cumulant expansion is an asymptotic expansion has thus been given numerical support.

Study of the cumulant expansion for renormalization transformations on two- and three- dimensional Ising models

Shin-chieh Hsu, J. D. Gunton

The Niemeijer-Van Leeuwen cumulant expansion is used in the renormalization-group analysis of the critical-point behavior of the Ising model. Second- and third-order results are obtained for the simple cubic and square lattices, respectively, for a variety of cell sizes, using a parameter-dependent renormalization transformation introduced by Kadanoff and Houghton. Although the results in two dimensions are in general good, there is no evidence of any convergence, with the best values for the critical exponents and critical temperature being given by the second-order theory. In three dimensions the values found for the critical temperature and magnetic scaling index for a cell of 27 spins are reasonable, but the corresponding thermal scaling index is quite poor.

Cumulant expansion in renormalization-group transformations on Ising spin systems: A third-order calculation

Aa. S. Sudbø, Per Chr. Hemmer

The Niemeijer-Van Leeuwen cumulant expansion for calculation of renormalized interactions is carried to third order for the Ising model on the triangular lattice. Kadanoff cells containing seven spins are used. In third order there is no indication that the cumulant expansion does not converge: The results are in every respect a considerable improvement over the second order.
