Subdominant critical indices for the ferromagnetic susceptibility of the spin-1/2 Ising model

D. Bessis, Pierre Moussa, Giorgio Turchetti

Published Aug 1, 1980• 8 citations

Abstract

Starting from the high-temperature series for the susceptibility of the spin- 1 / 2 ferromagnetic Ising models-square, planar triangular, SC, BCC, FCC, diamond, and HSC in four, five and six dimensions-the authors analyse the analytical structure near the critical point of the susceptibility by writing it as a Laplace transform in the variable log (1-w/w c ), where w=tanh( beta J). The interest of the method is that the coalescing singularities which sit at w=w c are spread out and can be analysed separately, the first subdominant critical indices, appearing as stable poles of Pade approximants. They first recover the results for the two-dimensional models, with a high accuracy: gamma =1.74995 and gamma s =0.757. The most stable results in three dimensions are obtained for the diamond lattice: gamma =1.2506+or-0.0015 and gamma s =0.42+or-0.11. The other lattices give 0.10< gamma s <0.52. However, in all three-dimensional cases the amplitude of the subdominant singularity is less than a few per cent of the leading one. Therefore the uncertainties are large, but the subdominant singularity stays closer to the value Gamma -1=0.25 than to the field theoretical predicted one gamma s =0.75.

The critical index of the magnetic susceptibility of 3D Ising models

Peter R. Graves-Morris

Series expansions for certain thermodynamic variables have been computed for various standard model lattices. The high-temperature series for the magnetic susceptibility of the Ising model of three-dimensional SC, BCC and FCC lattices allows estimates of the critical index gamma of each series to be made. Dramatic progress in this direction was made by the Pade Dlog method, and here a similar technique is introduced. Estimates of gamma from row sequences of generalised inverse vector-valued Pade approximants are made. The results point to the conclusion that gamma =1.2406+or-0.0017 is the critical index common to all three lattices.

Complex-temperature singularities of the susceptibility in the D=2 Ising model. I. Square lattice

V Matveev, Robert E. Shrock

We investigate the complex-temperature singularities of the susceptibility of the 2D Ising model on a square lattice. From an analysis of low-temperature series expansions, we find evidence that, as one approaches the point u=u s =-1 (where u=e '4K ) from within the complex extensions of the FM or AFM phases, the susceptibility has a divergent singularity of the form X approximately A s '(1+u)(- gamma s ') with exponent gamma s '=3/2. The critical amplitude A s ' is calculated. Other critical exponents are found to be alpha s '= sigma s =0 and beta s = 1/4 , so that the scaling relation alpha s '+2 beta s + gamma s ' is satisfied. However, using exact results for beta s on the square, triangular, and honeycomb lattices, we show that universality is violated at this singularity: beta s is lattice-dependent. Finally, from an analysis of spin-spin correlation functions, we demonstrate that the correlation length and hence susceptibility are finite as one approaches the point u=-1 from within the symmetric phase. This is confirmed by an explicit study of high-temperature series expansions.

Estimation of critical indices for the three-dimensional Ising model

David S. Gaunt, M F Sykes

New series expansion data for the three-dimensional Ising model are analysed. A special study of the diamond and face-centred cubic lattices is made. Below the critical temperature convergence is found to be slow. It is concluded that all available data are consistent with beta = lambda 5/16 (magnetization) and not inconsistent with the 'scaling' value gamma '=5/4 (susceptibility) and that with the data and methods available at present it is not possible to draw more precise conclusions.

High temperature series for the susceptibility of the Ising model. I. Two dimensional lattices

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

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 triangular lattice to v 16 , for the square lattice to v 21 and for the honeycomb lattice to v 32 , inclusive. The asymptotic behaviour of the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic susceptibility is studied. It is concluded that the ferromagnetic singularity is not exactly factorizible. The antiferromagnetic susceptibility of the square and honeycomb lattices has a singularity of the same type as the energy at the antiferromagnetic critical temperature.

The critical behaviour of the maximum susceptibility locus

K. J. Chang, K C Lee

The high-temperature series expansions for the locus of the maximum susceptibility are calculated from the high-temperature series for the magnetic field for various two- and three-dimensional lattices of the spin- 1 / 2 Ising model. The authors examine their critical behaviour and determine the critical temperature nu e and the exponent Delta (= beta delta ) using the ratio method and the Pade approximant method. The values obtained for nu c are in good agreement with exact values and values obtained from standard series method and the Delta also agrees with beta delta obtained from other estimates. These results are another new supporting evidence for the universality hypothesis.

Critical behaviour of the Ising model above and below the critical temperature

J W Essam, D L Hunter

Previous series expansion studies of the magnetization and susceptibility of the Ising model are extended to the higher derivatives of the free energy with respect to the magnetic field. It is found that just above the critical temperature the 2 n th derivative is given by where in two dimensions γ = 1¾, Δ = 1fraction seven-eighths and in three dimensions γ = 1¼, Δ = 1fraction nine-sixteens. In two dimensions γ is exact and Δ is correct to 0.6%; the three-dimensional indices are correct to 0.2%. Just below the critical temperature where in three dimensions 0.303 <or= β <or= 0.318 and 1·55 <or= Δprime <or= 1.65. If the even derivatives are to have the same index above and below T c , then β = fraction five-sixteens and Δprime = 1fraction nine-sixteens. The latter index lies very close to the lower limit so that, although we cannot rule out Δprime = Δ, Δprime = 1fraction five-eighths is not unlikely. In two dimensions our results are consistent with linearity of the index and, if this is assumed, then β = fraction one-eighths and Δprime = 1fraction seven-eighths exactly and there is symmetry about T c . The amplitudes C 2 n + and C n - are estimated for n = 1 to 6.

We investigate the complex-temperature singularities of the susceptibility of the 2D Ising model on a square lattice. From an analysis of low-temperature series expansions, we find evidence that, as one approaches the point u=u s =-1 (where u=e '4K ) from within the complex extensions of the FM or AFM phases, the susceptibility has a divergent singularity of the form X approximately A s '(1+u)(- gamma s ') with exponent gamma s '=3/2. The critical amplitude A s ' is calculated. Other critical exponents are found to be alpha s '= sigma s =0 and beta s = 1/4 , so that the scaling relation alpha s '+2 beta s + gamma s ' is satisfied. However, using exact results for beta s on the square, triangular, and honeycomb lattices, we show that universality is violated at this singularity: beta s is lattice-dependent. Finally, from an analysis of spin-spin correlation functions, we demonstrate that the correlation length and hence susceptibility are finite as one approaches the point u=-1 from within the symmetric phase. This is confirmed by an explicit study of high-temperature series expansions.
