Critical temperatures of the d=3, s=1/2Ising model; the effect of confluent corrections to scaling

Abstract

Much attention has been paid to the d=3, s= 1 / 2 Ising model on the BCC lattice in recent years because the best high-temperature series expansions were available for this lattice. However, in order to compare series estimates of critical exponents and temperatures with independent evaluations via the Monte Carlo method, lattices of lower coordination number must be considered, since Monte Carlo studies are usually made on these. A study of extant susceptibility series on the FCC, SC, diamond and tetrahedron lattices is reported on and some comments are made on aspects of recent Monte Carlo analyses of the d=3, s= 1 / 2 Ising model on the SC and diamond lattices.

Confluent singularities and the correction-to-scaling exponent for the d=3 fcc Ising model

D. M. Saul, Michael Wortis, David Jasnow

The susceptibility of the spin-$s$ nearest-neighbor fcc Ising model is studied at zero magnetic field by twelve-term high-temperature series. We find that the data near criticality are consistent with $\ensuremath{\chi}=A(s){t}^{\frac{\ensuremath{-}5}{4}}[1+B(s){t}^{{\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{1}}]$, $t=1\ensuremath{-}\frac{{T}_{c}(s)}{T}$. The correction-to-scaling exponent has the universal value ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{1}=0.50\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.05$ in good agreement with $\ensuremath{\epsilon}$-expansion estimates. The confluent amplitude $B(s)$ vanishes at $s=\frac{1}{2}$ to within uncertainties. Values of the critical parameters are tabulated for a variety of spins.

High temperature series for the susceptibility of the Ising model. II. Three dimensional lattices

M F Sykes, David S. Gaunt, P D Roberts +1 more

For pt. I see ibid., vol. 5, no. 5, 624. Extended series expansions for the high temperature zero-field susceptibility of the Ising model are given in powers of the usual high temperature counting variable v=tanh K for the simple cubic lattice to v 17 , the body-centred cubic lattice to v 15 , and the face-centred cubic lattice to v 12 , inclusive. The coefficients are analysed by the ratio method and it is estimated that, subject to the implicit assumptions thereof, the critical temperatures correspond to v f =0.21813+or-0.00001 (SC), v f =0.15612+or-0.00003 (BCC) and v f =0.10174+or-0.00001 (FCC). The symptotic behaviour of the coefficients is studied in detail; for the loose-packed lattices the decay of the even-odd oscillation in the ratios is found to be consistent with the assumption that the critical index of the high temperature specific heat is very close to 1/8.

On the critical exponent γ for four common three-dimensional lattices

J. L. Gammel, D C Power

The rational approximation method is used to examine the critical exponent for the susceptibility in the S= 1 / 2 Ising model on the face centred cubic (FCC), body centred cubic (BCC), simple cubic (SC) and diamond lattices. A variation of the method of critical point renormalisation is used to eliminate bias due to uncertainty in the location of the critical point. The results are in agreement with the renormalisation group and with recent series analysis of the BCC series.

Extended high-temperature series for the classical Heisenberg model in three dimensions

Sati McKenzie, Cyril Domb, D L Hunter

Extended series expansions are derived for the high-temperature susceptibility of the classical Heisenberg model, on three-dimensional lattices. Series coefficients are presented to twelfth order for the simple cubic (SC) and face centred cubic (FCC) lattices and to eleventh order for the body centred cubic (BCC) lattice. The results are in agreement with earlier calculations apart from a small discrepancy at the tenth order on the FCC lattice. Extrapolation studies on the extended series are used to obtain revised estimates for the critical points (K c ) and the susceptibility exponent ( gamma ). On the FCC lattice, the authors also investigate the possibility of a confluent non-analytic correction to the dominant singularity. While the coefficients are consistent with the presence of such a correction term with an exponent ( Delta 1 ) of 0.55, as predicted by renormalisation group (RG) calculations, the amplitude of the correction term appears to be very small compared with that of the first analytic correction term.

Extension to order β23 of the high-temperature expansions for the spin- 12 Ising model on simple cubic and body-centered cubic lattices

P. Butera, M. Comi

Using a renormalized linked-cluster-expansion method, we have extended to order ${\ensuremath{\beta}}^{23}$ the high-temperature series for the susceptibility $\ensuremath{\chi}$ and the second-moment correlation length $\ensuremath{\xi}$ of the spin-1/2 Ising models on the sc and the bcc lattices. A study of these expansions yields updated direct estimates of universal parameters, such as exponents and amplitude ratios, which characterize the critical behavior of $\ensuremath{\chi}$ and $\ensuremath{\xi}.$ Our best estimates for the inverse critical temperatures are ${\ensuremath{\beta}}_{c}^{\mathrm{sc}}=0.221654(1)$ and ${\ensuremath{\beta}}_{c}^{\mathrm{bcc}}=0.1573725(6).$ For the susceptibility exponent we get $\ensuremath{\gamma}=1.2375(6)$ and for the correlation length exponent $\ensuremath{\nu}=0.6302(4).$ The ratio of the critical amplitudes of $\ensuremath{\chi}$ above and below the critical temperature is estimated to be ${C}_{+}{/C}_{\ensuremath{-}}=4.762(8).$ The analogous ratio for $\ensuremath{\xi}$ is estimated to be ${f}_{+}{/f}_{\ensuremath{-}}=1.963(8).$ For the correction-to-scaling amplitude ratio we obtain ${a}_{\ensuremath{\xi}}^{+}{/a}_{\ensuremath{\chi}}^{+}=0.87(6).$

The Ising model on the tetrahedron lattice. I. An extended susceptibility series

J Ho-Ting-Hun, J. Oitmaa

The authors have calculated the first 16 terms of the series expansion for the high-temperature susceptibility of the Ising model for a lattice made up of the B sites of the crystobalite or spinel structures (the 'tetrahedron' lattice). By means of a transformation technique which allows the enumeration of graphs to be carried out on the simpler diamond lattice six new terms have been added to previously published results. They estimate that the critical temperature is given by nu c =0.23300+or-0.00001 and that the exponent gamma is gamma =1.250+or-0.001, a result which gives further confirmation of the universality hypothesis.
