We obtain exact expressions on calculation of critical temperature with ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic interactions. A direct anti-ferromagnetic bond of strength α L can give rise to the transition temperatures for appropriate α. We apply the star-triangle mapping transformation technique and decorating transform to Ising model.
