Critical Line of Two-Dimensional Spin-1/2 Pair-Product Heisenberg Model

Abstract

A critical line of the pair-product approximant of the two-dimensional spin-1/2 Heisenberg model is obtained exactly in an interaction region, by using the fact that it can be mapped exactly into a staggered eight-vertex model and can be reduced further to a special Baxter model or F model.

Spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model with the pair XYZ Heisenberg interaction and quartic Ising interactions as the exactly soluble zero-field eight-vertex model

Jozef Strečka, Lucia Čanová, Kazuhiko Minami

The spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model with the pair XYZ Heisenberg interaction and quartic Ising interactions is exactly solved by establishing a precise mapping relationship with the corresponding zero-field (symmetric) eight-vertex model. It is shown that the Ising-Heisenberg model with the ferromagnetic Heisenberg interaction exhibits a striking critical behavior, which manifests itself through re-entrant phase transitions as well as continuously varying critical exponents. The changes in critical exponents are in accordance with the weak universality hypothesis in spite of a peculiar singular behavior that emerges at a quantum critical point of the infinite order, which occurs at the isotropic limit of the Heisenberg interaction. On the other hand, the Ising-Heisenberg model with the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interaction surprisingly exhibits less significant changes in both critical temperatures and critical exponents upon varying the strength of the exchange anisotropy in the Heisenberg interaction.

Weak-universal critical behavior and quantum critical point of the exactly soluble spin-1∕2 Ising-Heisenberg model with the pair XYZ Heisenberg and quartic Ising interactions

Jozef Strečka, Lucia Čanová, Kazuhiko Minami +4 more

Spin‐1/2 Ising‐Heisenberg model withXYZ Heisenberg pair interaction and two different Ising quartic interactions is exactly solved with the help of the generalized star‐square transformation, which establishes a precise mapping equivalence with the corresponding eight‐vertex model on a square lattice generally satisfying Baxter’s zero‐field (symmetric) condition. The investigated model exhibits a remarkable weak‐universal critical behavior with two marked wings of critical lines along which critical exponents vary continuously with the interaction parameters. Both wings of critical lines merge together at a very special quantum critical point of the infinite order, which can be characterized through diverging critical exponents. The possibility of observing reentrant phase transitions in a close vicinity of the quantum critical point is related to a relative strength of the exchange anisotropy in the XYZ Heisenberg pair interaction.

Some Critical Properties of the Eight-Vertex Model

Leo P. Kadanoff, Franz Wegner

The eight-vertex model solved by Baxter is shown to be equivalent to two Ising models with nearest-neighbor coupling interacting with one another via a four-spin coupling term. The critical properties of the model in the weak-coupling limit are in agreement with the scaling hypothesis. In this limit where $\ensuremath{\alpha}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0$, the critical indices obey $\frac{\ensuremath{\gamma}}{{\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{0}}=\frac{\ensuremath{\beta}}{{\ensuremath{\beta}}_{0}}=\frac{\ensuremath{\nu}}{{\ensuremath{\nu}}_{0}}=1\ensuremath{-}\frac{1}{2}\ensuremath{\alpha}$, $\frac{\ensuremath{\delta}}{{\ensuremath{\delta}}_{0}}=\frac{\ensuremath{\eta}}{{\ensuremath{\eta}}_{0}}=1$, with the subscripts zero denoting the index values for the ordinary two-dimensional Ising model.

Two-dimensional XXZ -Ising model on a square-hexagon lattice

J. S. Valverde, Onofre Rojas, S. M. de Souza

We study a two-dimensional XXZ -Ising model on a square-hexagon (denoted for simplicity by 4-6) lattice with spin 1/2. The phase diagram at zero temperature is discussed, where five states are found, two types of ferrimagnetic states, two types of antiferromagnetic states, and one ferromagnetic state. To solve this model, we have mapped onto the eight-vertex model with union Jack interaction term, and it was verified that the model cannot be completely mapped onto eight-vertex model. However, by imposing an exact solution condition, we have found the region where the XXZ -Ising model on 4-6 lattice is exactly soluble with one free parameter, particularly for the case of symmetric eight-vertex model condition. In this manner we have explored the properties of the system and have analyzed the interacting competition parameters which preserve the region where there is an exact solution. Unfortunately the present model does not satisfy the free fermion condition of the eight-vertex model, unless for a trivial solution. Even so, we are able to discuss the critical point region, beyond the region of exact resolvability.

Note on universality and the eight-vertex model

K Jungling, Gustav M. Obermair

It is shown that the critical behaviour of the general eight-vertex model is equal to that of an Ising model with only two-spin interactions between first, second and third neighbours. The critical exponents of the latter must therefore, in general, depend on the ratios of coupling constants as those of Baxter's eight-vertex model have been shown to do, in contrast to universality so far assumed to hold for all short-range two-spin interactions.

A spin-3/2 Ising model on a square lattice

N. Sh. Izmailian

The spin-3/2 Ising model described by the most general Hamiltonian with up-down symmetry, −βH=Σ〈ij〉{JS i S j +KS 2 i S 2 j +LS 3 i S 3 j +M/2(S i S 3 j +S j S 3 i )}−ΔΣi S 2 i , is investigated on a square lattice. It is shown that this model is reducible to an eight-vertex model on a surface in the parameter space spanned by the coupling constants J, K, L, and M. It is shown that this model is equivalent to an exactly solvable free fermion model along two lines in the parameter space. Consequently, the critical behavior and, in particular, the critical temperature for the second-order phase transitions of the model is found exactly.
