Effective-field renormalization-group study for the transverse Ising model in a quantum-spin system
Qing Jiang, Z. Y. Li
Abstract
In this paper we suggest a method that combines the effective-field renormalization group with the discretized path-integral method to study the critical behavior of the transverse Ising model in a quantum-spin system. We find the results on a critical transverse field and critical exponent at zero temperature to be closely comparable to other results. This demonstrates the utility of this method in studying critical properties of quantum-spin systems.
