Two-dimensional Ising model and local nonuniversality of critical exponents

R. Z. Bariev

Published Dec 1, 2000• 1 citation

Abstract

We obtain the local magnetization of a planar Ising model with defects of different types. It is shown that near the critical point the local magnetization has a nonuniversal behavior that manifests itself in the fact that its critical exponent is a continuous function of the microscopic parameters of the system.

Two-dimensional Dilute Ising Models: Defect Lines and the Universality of the Critical Exponent ν

F. Szalma, Ferenc Iglói

We consider two-dimensional Ising models with randomly distributed ferromagnetic bonds and study the local critical behavior at defect lines by extensive Monte Carlo simulations. Both for ladder and chain type defects, non-universal critical behavior is observed: the critical exponent of the defect magnetization is found to be a continuous function of the strength of the defect coupling. Analyzing corresponding stability conditions, we obtain new evidence that the critical exponent $ν$ of the bulk correlation length of the random Ising model does not depend on dilution, i.e. $ν=1$.

Nonuniversal critical behaviour in planar Ising models with extended, radially symmetric defects

R. Z. Bariev, Ingo Peschel

Using conformal mapping and finite-size scaling the authors determine the local magnetic exponent near a defect characterized by couplings of the form J(r)=J(1+A/r). In accordance with phenomenological considerations, they find that it depends continuously on the amplitude A, both for a defect in the interior and on the boundary.

Critical phenomena near free surfaces and defect planes

Theodore W. Burkhardt, Erich Eisenriegler

We discuss the universality classes of the local critical behavior of a bulk system near a free surface and near an internal plane of defects. A phase diagram and plausible renormalization-group flow properties for a general model which encompasses both cases are described qualitatively. Several of the crossover exponents are related to bulk critical exponents or semi-infinite surface critical exponents. The picture which is proposed accomodates systems with nonuniversal local critical exponents near a plane of defects, such as the two-dimensional Ising model near a defect line, in a natural way. Necessary conditions for nonuniversal local critical exponents and for logarithmic corrections are derived. The singularities of the energy densities near a free surface and near an internal defect plane on approaching the bulk critical temperature are analyzed.

Edge critical behavior at the surface transition of Ising magnets

Michel Pleimling, Walter Selke

Using Monte Carlo techniques, Ising models with ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor interactions on a simple cubic lattice are studied. At the surface transition, the critical exponent ${\ensuremath{\beta}}_{2}$ of the edge magnetization is found to be nonuniversal, depending on the edge and edge-surface couplings, in contrast to the situation at the ordinary transition. Results are compared to those for two-dimensional Ising magnets with chain and ladder defects.

Nonuniversality in short-time critical dynamics

César Simões, J. R. Drugowich de Felício

We study the behaviour of dynamical critical exponents of the two-dimensional Ising model with a line of defects. Simulations done at an early time (first 100 Monte Carlo steps) reveal that the critical exponent of Janssen et al ( Z. Phys. B 73 539) depends on the strength of the exchange coupling constant of the altered line. On the other hand, our simulations permit us to conclude that the dynamical critical exponent z is not sensitive to changes in . In addition, we investigate the possible invariance of the anomalous dimension of the magnetization at the beginning of the process.

Nonuniversal and surface critical behavior near a defect plane

Ferenc Iglói

The existence of nonuniversal, as well as surface (universal) critical behavior near a defect plane is demonstrated on a one-dimensional quantum lattice gas model, belonging to the two-dimensional Ising universality class. According to numerical results the weak defect region is attracted by a line of fixed points starting at the bulk critical point, while the strong defect region is controlled by a separate fixed point describing the surface transition of the model. This new kind of phase diagram is argued to be general for two-dimensional lattice gas models.
