A linked cluster evaluation of contour integrals in statistical mechanics

Gerald Horwitz

A linked cluster expansion is obtained for the logarithm of the partition function which constitutes an asymptotic expansion in 1/N for a normal system. The result is obtained by means of a new and rather general way of asymptotically evaluating a type of integral common in statistical mechanics.

Corner transfer matrices in statistical mechanics

R. J. Baxter

Corner transfer matrices are a useful tool in the statistical mechanics of simple two-dimensinal models.They can be very effective way of obtaining series expansions of unsolved models, and of calculating the order parameters of solved ones.Here we review these features and discuss the reason why the method fails to give the order parameter of the chiral Potts model..
