Finite-size effects for the Ising model on helical tori

Abstract

We analyze the exact partition function of the Ising model on a square lattice under helical boundary conditions obtained by Liaw [Phys. Rev. E 73, 055101(R) (2006)]. Based on such an expression, we then extend the algorithm of Ivashkevich, Izmailian, and Hu [J. Phys. A 35, 5543 (2002)] to derive an exact asymptotic expansion of the logarithm of the partition function and its first to fourth derivatives at the critical point. From such results, we find that the shift exponent for the specific heat is lambda=1 for all values of the helicity factor d . We also find that finite-size corrections for the free energy, the internal energy, and the specific heat of the model in a crucial way depend on the helicity factor of the lattice.

Partition functions and finite-size scalings of Ising model on helical tori

Tsong‐Ming Liaw, Ming-Chang Huang, Yen-Liang Chou +2 more

The exact closed forms of the partition functions of a two-dimensional Ising model on square lattices with twisted boundary conditions are given. The constructions of helical tori are unambiguously related to the twisted boundary conditions by virtue of the SL(2, Z) transforms. The numerical analyses on the deviations of the specific-heat peaks away from the bulk critical temperature reveal that the finite-size effect of herical tori is independent of the chirality.

Finite-size effects for anisotropic 2D Ising model with various boundary conditions

N. Sh. Izmailian

We analyze the exact partition function of the anisotropic Ising model on finite M × N rectangular lattices under four different boundary conditions (periodic–periodic (pp), periodic–antiperiodic (pa), antiperiodic–periodic (ap) and antiperiodic–antiperiodic (aa)) obtained by Kaufman (1949 Phys. Rev. 76 1232), Wu and Hu (2002 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 35 5189) and Kastening (2002 Phys. Rev. E 66 057103)). We express the partition functions in terms of the partition functions Zα, β(J, k) with (α, β) = (0, 0), (1/2, 0), (0, 1/2) and (1/2, 1/2), J is an interaction coupling and k is an anisotropy parameter. Based on such expressions, we then extend the algorithm of Ivashkevich et al (2002 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 35 5543) to derive the exact asymptotic expansion of the logarithm of the partition function for all boundary conditions mentioned above. Our result is f = fbulk + ∑∞p = 0fp(ρ, k)S−p − 1, where f is the free energy of the system, fbulk is the free energy of the bulk, S = MN is the area of the lattice and ρ = M/N is the aspect ratio. All coefficients in this expansion are expressed through analytical functions. We have introduced the effective aspect ratio ρeff = ρ/sinh 2Jc and show that for pp and aa boundary conditions all finite size correction terms are invariant under the transformation ρeff → 1/ρeff.This article is part of ‘Lattice models and integrability’, a special issue of Journal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical in honour of F Y Wu's 80th birthday.

Finite-size corrections and scaling for the triangular lattice dimer model with periodic boundary conditions

N. Sh. Izmailian, Koryun B. Oganesyan, Ming‐Chya Wu +1 more

We analyze the partition function of the dimer model on M x N triangular lattice wrapped on the torus obtained by Fendley, Moessner, and Sondhi [Phys. Rev. B 66, 214513, (2002)]. Based on such an expression, we then extend the algorithm of Ivashkevich, Izmailian, and Hu [J. Phys. A 35, 5543 (2002)] to derive the exact asymptotic expansion of the first and second derivatives of the logarithm of the partition function at the critical point and find that the aspect-ratio dependence of finite-size corrections and the finite-size scaling functions are sensitive to the parity of the number of lattice sites along the lattice axis.

Exact treatment of Ising model on the helical tori

Tsong‐Ming Liaw, Ming-Chang Huang, Yen-Liang Chou +2 more

The exact closed forms of the partition functions of 2D Ising model on square lattices with twisted boundary conditions are given. The constructions of helical tori are unambiguously related to the twisted boundary conditions by virtue of the SL(2,Z) transforms. Numerical analyses reveal that the finite size effect is irrelevant to the chirality equipped with each helical boundary condition.

Exact finite-size corrections for the square-lattice Ising model with Brascamp-Kunz boundary conditions

N. Sh. Izmailian, Koryun B. Oganesyan, Chin‐Kun Hu

Finite-size scaling, finite-size corrections, and boundary effects for critical systems have attracted much attention in recent years. Here we derive exact finite-size corrections for the free energy F and the specific heat C of the critical ferromagnetic Ising model on the Mu x 2 Nu square lattice with Brascamp-Kunz (BK) boundary conditions [J. Math. Phys. 15, 66 (1974)] and compare such results with those under toroidal boundary conditions. When the ratio xi/2=(Mu+1)/2 Nu is smaller than 1 the behaviors of finite-size corrections for C are quite different for BK and toroidal boundary conditions; when ln(xi/2) is larger than 3, finite-size corrections for C in two boundary conditions approach the same values. In the limit Nu-->infinity we obtain the expansion of the free energy for infinitely long strip with BK boundary conditions. Our results are consistent with the conformal field theory prediction for the mixed boundary conditions by Cardy [Nucl. Phys. B 275, 200 (1986)] although the definitions of boundary conditions in two cases are different in one side of the long strip.

Universal finite-size scaling functions with exact nonuniversal metric factors

Ming‐Chya Wu, Chin‐Kun Hu, N. Sh. Izmailian

Using exact partition functions and finite-size corrections for the Ising model on finite square, plane triangular, and honeycomb lattices and extending a method [J. Phys. 19, L1215 (1986)] to subtract leading singular terms from the free energy, we obtain universal finite-size scaling functions for the specific heat, internal energy, and free energy of the Ising model on these lattices with exact nonuniversal metric factors.
