THE NEW MEAN FIELD RENORMALIZATION GROUP FROM EFFECTIVE FIELD THEORY

F. O. Coelho, J. A. Plascak

Published Oct 20, 1995• 3 citations
Publisher

Abstract

The new mean field renormalization group is used to study the Ising model through the calculation of the order parameter by means of the effective field theory based on Callen–Suzuki identity. By considering one- and two-spin clusters, better results are obtained when compared to the previous treatment using the usual mean field approximation.

MEAN FIELD RENORMALIZATION GROUP FOR ISING MODELS WITH S≥1

D. Peña Lara, J. A. Plascak

The mean field renormalization group is extended in order to study spin-S Ising models (S≥1) by introducing additional parameters in the Hamiltonians of the clusters, in the same spirit as the mean field approach. These new parameters are then consistently obtained according to finite size scaling ideas and quite good results are obtained, even for the smallest choice of the clusters. Moreover, the mean value of the square of the spin along the second-order transition line can also be obtained from the present formalism.

MEAN-FIELD RENORMALIZATION GROUP: BIBLIOGRAPHY AND NEW APPLICATIONS USING LARGE CLUSTERS

Kathleen Croes, Joseph O. Indekeu

Renormalization group recursions based on mean-field approximations [J. O. Indekeu, A. Maritan, and A. L. Stella, J. Phys.A15, L291 (1982)], commonly referred to as mean-field renormalization group methods (MFRG), have proven to be efficient and easily applicable for computing non-classical critical properties of lattice models. We give a fairly complete bibliography of applications to date, and extend previous test calculations of bulk, surface, and corner critical exponents in the two-dimensional Ising model to larger cluster sizes on triangular, square (including crossing bonds), and honeycomb lattices. Without much effort the exact value of the critical exponent ratioyH/yT is reproduced systematically with a precision of 2%. This ratio turns out to be the most accurate probe of non-classical critical behaviour that is available in the MFRG method.

Critical behavior of the anisotropic Heisenberg model by effective-field renormalization group

J. Ricardo de Sousa, I. P. Fittipaldi

A real-space effective-field renormalization-group method (ERFG) recently derived for computing critical properties of Ising spins is extended to treat the quantum spin-1/2 anisotropic Heisenberg model. The formalism is based on a generalized but approximate Callen–Suzuki spin relation and utilizes a convenient differential operator expansion technique. The method is illustrated in several lattice structures by employing its simplest approximation version in which clusters with one (N′=1) and two (N=2) spins are used. The results are compared with those obtained from the standard mean-field (MFRG) and Migdal–Kadanoff (MKRG) renormalization-group treatments and it is shown that this technique leads to rather accurate results. It is shown that, in contrast with the MFRG and MKRG predictions, the EFRG, besides correctly distinguishing the geometries of different lattice structures, also provides a vanishing critical temperature for all two-dimensional lattices in the isotropic Heisenberg limit. For the simple cubic lattice, the dependence of the transition temperature Tc with the exchange anisotropy parameter Δ [i.e., Tc(Δ)], and the resulting value for the critical thermal crossover exponent φ [i.e., Tc≂Tc(0)+AΔ1/φ ] are in quite good agreement with results available in the literature in which more sophisticated treatments are used.

New correlated-effective-field theory in the Ising model

T. Kaneyoshi, I. P. Fittipaldi, R. Honmura +1 more

A new method incorporating the effects of many-body static spin correlations into an effective-field theory is discussed. The method is based on the introduction of a differential operator and the concept of the correlated effective field into two exact Callen identities of the Ising model. The resulting statistical theory is shown to have an accuracy equivalent to that of the Bethe-Peierls method. It is shown that the correlated-effective-field parameter at the transition temperature has a universal function of $\frac{1}{(z\ensuremath{-}1)}$, where $z$ is the number of nearest neighbors.

New real-space renormalization techniques and their application to models of various spin and space dimensionalities

Wolfgang Kinzel

The mean-field approximation is used for the evaluation of the Niemeijer---Van Leeuwen real-space renormalization. Although this new method is very simple, it gives reasonable results for the critical properties of two-, three-, and four-dimensional Ising models, for the transition temperature ${T}_{c}$ of an Ising model with clusters and for the two-dimensional Ising antiferromagnet in an external magnetic field. Using this new mean-field renormalization in connection with the real-space renormalization of the kinetic Ising model, which recently has been suggested by the author, we obtain the long-time relaxation of the magnetization for all temperatures above ${T}_{c}$. In the last application the critical properties of $n$-dimensional spins in two and three space dimensions are calculated for arbitrary $n$. Here the mean-field approximation and Monte Carlo methods are used to evaluate the renormalization step.

Contribution to the new type of effective-field theory of the Ising model

R. Honmura, T. Kaneyoshi

A new type of effective-field theory of the Ising model is presented. The differential-operator method is introduced into the exact spin correlation function identity obtained by Callen. The Curie temperatures are evaluated by using two different types of effective Hamiltonians. It is also shown how the Zernike and the Bethe-Peierls equations can be reproduced within one framework depending on the choice of effective fields in an effective Hamiltonian. The spin correlation function and the specific heat are presented.
