Abstract

In this work, we present a simple approximate transfer matrix method for 2D and 3D Ising ferromagnet to calculate spontaneous magnetization of the system. The critical coupling strength Kc of 2D and 3D Ising models in reduced transfer matrix approximation is obtained quite accurately by simple improvements over the mean field theory. The important physical effect we include is the some of the fluctuations effects of the systems directly with help of this method. We predict from the spontaneous magnetization curve that the critical coupling strength Kc=J/kBT = 0.401 and 0.245 for two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) systems, respectively.

CORRELATED REDUCED TRANSFER MATRIX APPROACH FOR ISING MODEL

Tuncer Kaya

In this paper we present a simple approximate transfer matrix method for 2D and 3D hyper cubic nearest neighbor Ising models with various coordination number z to calculate the corresponding critical coupling strengths Kc. The critical coupling strengths of the Ising ferromagnets are obtained quite accurately by simple improvements over the self-consistent correlated field (SCCF) approximation. The important physical effect included in this work is some of the fluctuation effects of the systems by the help of a reduced transfer matrix method. When used in combination with the accuracy of the average magnetization obtained from the SCCF approximation, this reduced transfer matrix method leads to estimate of Kc more accurate than those obtained from the Bethe–Peierls–Weiss approximation and also SCCF approximation. Therefore, we believe that the approach we refer to as the correlated reduced transfer matrix method is potentially very useful scheme for obtaining approximate values of the critical coupling strengths of the Ising models with a mathematically easy meaner.

IMPROVED MEAN-FIELD TRANSFER MATRIX MODEL FOR HYPERCUBIC ISING SYSTEMS

Tuncer Kaya

A mean-field method for Ising systems is introduced generalizing the reduced transfer matrix method introduced by Kaya and Arık. The important assumption of the method is that the neighboring spins of a central spin can be replaced by the average magnetization 〈σ〉 of the system. The approximation is same as the previously introduced method. However, the derivative of average magnetization with respect to external magnetic field is defined without further approximation. In addition, the previously introduced model is extended to all hypercubic lattices. The critical coupling strength Kc for hypercubic lattices is evaluated self-consistently. Obviously, this assumption leads to some significant deviation from the exact treatment. However, the model introduced here is an improvement on most self-consistent mean-field-type approximations.

Two-dimensional Ising model with the next nearest interactions

Zhang Zhi-dong

The partition function and the spontaneous magnetization of a two-dimensional (2D) Ising model with the next nearest interactions at zero magnetic field are derived analytically. At first, the transfer matrices are analyzed in three representations, i.e., Clifford algebraic representation, transfer tensor representation, and schematic representation, to inspect nontrivial topological structures in this system. The system is equivalent to a triangular Ising model plus an interaction along the z axis, so that the approaches developed for the 3D Ising models are modified to be appropriable for analytically solving the solution of the 2D Ising model with the next nearest interactions. The comparison with the exact solutions of other Ising lattices reveals that either the increase of the number of interactions in a unit cell or the presence/increase of topological contributions enhances the critical point of the Ising lattices. The results obtained in this work are helpful for understanding the physical properties of the 2D magnetic materials.

Transfer Matrix and Finite-Size Scaling for the Ising Model on Two- and Three-Dimensional Lattices

Takehiko Oguchi, Y‐h. Taguchi

The transfer matrices for the ferromagnetic Ising model on the two- and three-dimensional lattices with finite size are formulated using the screw method introduced by Kramers and Wannier, and the largest and next largest eigenvalues of matrices are obtained by a computer. Then the specific heats and magnetic susceptibilities are calculated for each system with various sizes. By use of the finite-size scaling and Roomany-Wyld approximations, the critical exponents of the infinite-size systems are evaluated. They are in quite good agreement with the reliable ones.

Transfer matrix and Monte Carlo tests of critical exponents in Ising model

J. Kaupužs

The corrections to finite-size scaling in the critical two-point correlation function G(r) of 2D Ising model on a square lattice have been studied numerically by means of exact transfer-matrix algorithms. The systems have been considered, including up to 800 spins. The calculation of G(r) at a distance r equal to the half of the system size L shows the existence of an amplitude correction proportional to 1/L^2. A nontrivial correction ~1/L^0.25 of a very small magnitude also has been detected, as it can be expected from our recently developed GFD (grouping of Feynman diagrams) theory. Monte Carlo simulations of the squared magnetization of 3D Ising model have been performed by Wolff's algorithm in the range of the reduced temperatures t =< 0.000086 and system sizes L =< 410. The effective critical exponent beta_eff(t) tends to increase above the currently accepted numerical values. The critical coupling K_c=0.22165386(51) has been extracted from the Binder cumulant data within 96 =< L =< 384. The critical exponent 1/nu, estimated from the finite-size scaling of the derivatives of the Binder cumulant, tends to decrease slightly below the RG value 1.587 for the largest system sizes. The finite-size scaling of accurately simulated maximal values of the specific heat C_v in 3D Ising model confirms a logarithmic rather than power-like critical singularity of C_v.

Approximate Algebraic Solution of 3D Ising Model —Transfer-Matrix Method

Andras Szasz

The exact analytical solution of the three-dimensional (3D) Ising model remains a central unresolved problem in statistical mechanics. While exact solutions exist in one and two dimensions, the three-dimensional case has resisted closed-form treatment. While standard Kramers-Wannier duality fails to yield a self-dual spin model in 3D, instead mapping to a gauge theory, we introduce a quasi-duality transformation by perturbing the isotropic cubic lattice with a slight, localized spatial inhomogeneity. Specifically, this is introduced via the boundary correction term A n ( ? )= δ η,nN ( s η ? s η?N+1 ? ? s η ? s η+1 ? ) , which arises from flattening the 2D planes into 1D row-continuous chains. By enforcing a condition where the introduced inhomogeneity algebraically absorbs the leading-order topological mismatch of the dual gauge fields, we recover an effective self-dual relation. This algebraic solution yields a critical coupling of K c = 1 4 ln( 1+ 2 )≈0.22033 , which remarkably deviates by only ~0.6% from the widely accepted homogeneous Monte Carlo estimation of K c ( MC ) ?0.22165 . We discuss the derivation and outline future applications of this method to study phase transitions in complex, structurally disordered systems. The method provides insight into how weak inhomogeneity restores a form of dual symmetry that approximates the true critical manifold. Implications for critical phenomena, renormalization structure, and complex biological systems operating near criticality are discussed.
