Heisenberg Model for the 3×3 Square Lattice

Abstract

The exact excitation spectrum of a 3×3 two dimensional square lattice interacting via the nearest neighbour anisotropic Heisenberg Hamiltonian H = J ∑ < i j > { S i z S j z +γ( S i x S j x + S i y S j y )}, has been obtained for various values of the anisotropy constant γ. The zeros of the partition function in the complex µ=exp (- m H e / k B T ) plane are calculated for different γ for both ferromagnetic ( J <0) and antiferromagnetic ( J >0) coupling. For \(0{\leqslant}\gamma{\leqslant}1\), the ferromagnetic zeros obey the generalized Lee-Yang theorem at all temperatures, but, for γ>1, they violate it at sufficiently low temperatures. For antiferromagnetic coupling, the zeros lie on the (unphysical) negative real axis for all values of γ and temperature. The zero-field susceptibility, for antiferromagnetic coupling, does not display a local maximum as a function of temperature in contrast to Kawabata's results on the same lattice.

Distribution of Zeros of the Partition Function for the Finite Two-Dimensional Heisenberg Model

Vinod Mubayi, Chanchal K. Majumdar, Kanwar Krishan

The exact excitation spectrum of the 3 \ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{} 3 square and the 3 \ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{} 4 rectangular lattices interacting via the nearest-neighbor anisotropic Heisenberg interaction $H=J\ensuremath{\Sigma}{(\mathrm{ij})}^{}[S_{i}^{}{}_{}{}^{z}S_{j}^{}{}_{}{}^{z}+\ensuremath{\gamma}(S_{i}^{}{}_{}{}^{x}S_{j}^{}{}_{}{}^{x}+S_{i}^{}{}_{}{}^{y}S_{j}^{}{}_{}{}^{y})]$ has been obtained for various values of the anisotropy constant $\ensuremath{\gamma}$. For $0\ensuremath{\le}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\le}1$, the zeros of the partition function in the complex $\ensuremath{\mu}=\mathrm{exp}(\ensuremath{-}\frac{m{H}_{e}}{{k}_{B}T})$ plane obey the generalized Lee-Yang theorem for ferromagnetic coupling. The usual ferromagnetic transition seems to persist up to $\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\simeq}0.6$. For $0.6\ensuremath{\lesssim}\ensuremath{\gamma}\ensuremath{\le}1$, nothing definite about a ferromagnetic transition can be inferred from the behavior of the zeros. When $\ensuremath{\gamma}>1$, the ferromagnetic zeros do not obey the generalized Lee-Yang theorem at sufficiently low temperatures. For antiferromagnetic coupling, the zeros lie on the negative real axis for all values of $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ and of the temperature of the studied lattices.

Statistical Mechanics of the Finite Heisenberg Model. II

Chikao Kawabata

The eigenfunctions of a two-dimensional finite 3×3 lattice of Heisenberg model ( s =1/2) are obtained exactly with the aid of group theoretical technique and by using a computer. The eigenvalues of the anisotropic exchange Hamiltonian have been computed. The zeros of the partition function for the two-dimensional finite 3×3 lattice lie on the same unit circle in the complex magnetic field plane as those obtained in the three-dimensional finite 2×2×2 lattice. The zeros of the partition function obtained by coarse-graining of eigenvalues distribute on a line in the complex temperature plane. The thermodynamic quantities–specific heat, entropy, magnetization–has been numerically computed for ferro- and antiferromagnetic coupling. The critical index of the magnetization versus field is discussed on the basis of these numerical results.

Excitation spectrum of an antiferromagnetic model

Chanchal K. Majumdar, Kanwar Krishan, Vinod Mubayi

Short chains of up to 12 spins are studied exactly to obtain the excitation spectrum of an antiferromagnetic hamiltonian H=1/2J Sigma i=1N sigma i, sigma i+1+1/4J Sigma i=1N sigma i, sigma i+2 (J>0, even, N+1 identical to 1, N+2 identical to 2). As well as antiferromagnetic spin waves of total spin S=1, there are S=0 bound magnon states lying partly below the spin wave branch. The susceptibility shows the usual peak at low temperatures, and the zeros of the partition function lie on the negative real axis in the complex mu =exp(-mHe/kBT) plane.

Effect of Anisotropy on the Critical Behaviour of Three- Dimensional Heisenberg Ferromagnets

R. Shanker, R. A. Singh

The anisotropic nearest-neighbour Heisenberg model for the simple cubic lattice has been investigated by interpolating the anisotropy between the Ising and isotropic Heisenberg limits via general spin high-temperature series expansions of the zero-field suspectibility. This is done by estimating the critical temperature (Tc(3)) and the susceptibility exponent γ from the analysis of the series by the Ratio and Pade approximants methods. It is noted that Tc(3) varies with anisotropy while γ is almost the same for the anisotropic system, and a jump in it occurs for the isotropic case in agreement with the universality hypothesis. The effect of anisotropy on the susceptibility is also shown. Further, it is seen that estimates of γ for the two extreme limits agree well with those of previous theoretical as well as experimental investigations. In addition, critical temperatures have been summarised in a relation, and expressions for the magnetisation have been derived.

Critical Behavior of the Spin System with Anisotropic Exchange Interaction. II. Two-Dimensional Lattice

Takuma Ishikawa, Takehiko Oguchi

The phase transition for the spin systems described by the Hamiltonian H =-2 J ∑ < i , j > (ξ S i x S j x +η S i y S j y + S i z S j z )- g µ H ∑ i S i z is studied by means of the high-temperature series expansion of the zero field susceptibility. The first five terms in the susceptibility series are explicitly obtained for the two-dimensional square lattice in the cases of (i) 0≤ξ≤1, η=0 and (ii) 0≤ξ=η≤1. The critical temperature T c and the critical exponent γ (susceptibility) are obtained as functions of the spin S and the anisotropy parameter ξ. The critical temperature has a finite value in the XY model (ξ=1, η=0) as well as the Heisenberg model (ξ=η=1). The simple formulae expressing T c and γ valid for arbitrary S and ξ are proposed.

On the Phase Transition and Critical Behaviour in the Two-Dimensional Anisotropic Heisenberg Model

R. Shanker, R. A. Singh

The anisotropic Heisenberg model has been investigated by interpolating anisotropy between the Ising and isotropic Heisenberg limits via general spin high temperature series (HTS) for the zero-field susceptibility of the ferromagnets for the square lattice. This is done by locating the critical temperature ( T c (2) ) and the susceptibility exponent (γ) from the analysis of the series by Pade approximant and ratio methods. The critical temperature is found to be spin dependent. It decreases as anisotropy changes from the Ising limit towards the isotropic limit and remains finite (lower than that of Stanley and Kaplan) for all the spins except for S =1/2 at the isotropic limit. Exponent γ is almost Ising like for the anisotropic system and anomalous jump in it occurs for the isotropic case. In addition, expressions for the magnetization are derived by using spin-wave theory. The limit of complete isotropy has been found not to be a special case for the susceptibility, in contrast to magnetization.
