On the universality class of Ising models with mixed two- and three-spin interactions

Abstract

It is shown that the Hamiltonian limit of a spin- 1 / 2 Ising model on a D-dimensional lattice with three-spin interactions in one direction and two-spin interactions in the other directions is equivalent to the same limit of a nearest-neighbour four-state spin model.

Ising universality in three dimensions: a Monte Carlo study

Henk W. J. Blöte, Erik Luijten, Jouke R. Heringa

We investigate three Ising models on the simple cubic lattice by means of Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling. These models are the spin-1/2 Ising model with nearest-neighbour interactions, a spin-1/2 model with nearest-neighbour and third-neighbour interactions, and a spin-1 model with nearest-neighbour interactions. The results are in accurate agreement with the hypothesis of universality. Analysis of the finite-size scaling behaviour reveals corrections beyond those caused by the leading irrelevant scaling field. We find that the correction-to-scaling amplitudes are strongly dependent on the introduction of further-neighbour interactions or a third spin state. In a spin-1 Ising model, these corrections appear to be very small. This is very helpful for the determination of the universal constants of the Ising model. The renormalization exponents of the Ising model are determined as y t =1.587 (2), y h =2.4815 (15) and y i =-0.82 (6). The universal ratio Q=(m 2 ) 2 /(m 4 ) is equal to 0.6233 (4) for periodic systems with cubic symmetry. The critical point of the nearest-neighbour spin-1/2 model is K c =0.2216546 (10).

Exactly soluble Ising models with anisotropic interactions and arbitrary external magnetic field

Pedro L. Garrido, Joaquín Marro

The authors consider several Ising models with anisotropic interactions which can be solved exactly in the thermodynamic limit, for instance using a transfer matrix method. These include a two-dimensional system where each spin interacts directly with the two nearest neighbours along one of the principal axes of the lattice and has a coherent-field coupling with the spins along the second principal direction and a multidimensional system with coherent-field couplings along any of the principal axes.

Two-dimensional Ising model with multispin interactions

Jean‐Marc Debierre, Loïc Turban

The two-dimensional Ising model in the rectangular lattice is generalised to include m-spin interactions in one direction and two-spin interactions in the other. This model is self-dual and the critical line is the same as in the conventional Ising model with m=2. The m=3 model is solved in a generalised mean-field approximation where the transition is first order. Using a phenomenological renormalisation group approach, approximate values of the thermal and magnetic exponents y t and y h are obtained for m=3 and m=4. The m=3 results together with symmetry arguments suggest that this model belongs to the same class of universality as the Baxter-Wu and four-state ferromagnetic Potts models. When m=4 the transition is probably first order.

Simultaneous analysis of several models in the three-dimensional Ising universality class

Youjin Deng, Henk W. J. Blöte

We investigate several three-dimensional lattice models believed to be in the Ising universality class by means of Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling. These models include spin-1 / 2 models with nearest-neighbor interactions on the simple-cubic and on the diamond lattice. For the simple cubic lattice, we also include models with third-neighbor interactions of varying strength, and some "equivalent-neighbor" models. Also included are a spin-1 model and a hard-core lattice gas. Separate analyses of the numerical data confirm the Ising-like critical behavior of these systems. On this basis, we analyze all these data simultaneously such that the universal parameters occur only once. This leads to an improved accuracy. The thermal, magnetic, and irrelevant exponents are determined as y(t)=1.5868(3), y(h)=2.4816(1), and y(i)=-0.821(5), respectively. The Binder ratio is estimated as Q=<m(2)>(2)/<m(4)>=0.62 341(4).

Ising Universality in Three Dimensions: A Monte Carlo Study

We investigate three Ising models on the simple cubic lattice by means of Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling. These models are the spin- 1 2 Ising model with nearest-neighbor interactions, a spin- 1 2 model with nearest-neighbor and third-neighbor interactions, and a spin-1 model with nearest-neighbor interactions. The results are in accurate agreement with the hypothesis of universality. Analysis of the finite-size scaling behavior reveals corrections beyond those caused by the leading irrelevant scaling field. We find that the correction-to-scaling amplitudes are strongly dependent on the introduction of further-neighbor interactions or a third spin state. In a spin-1 Ising model, these corrections appear to be very small. This is very helpful for the determination of the universal constants of the Ising model.

The nonuniversal Ising model with nearest-neighbour interactions on a ferrimagnetic square lattice

Zbigniew Strycharski, Jerzy Cisło

The relation between the Ising models with nearest-neighbour interactions on a ferrimagnetic square lattice (with spins S= 1 / 2 and S>or=1) and the eight-vertex model is pointed out. The nonuniversal behaviour of such Ising models with S>or=2 is shown.
