Simultaneous analysis of several models in the three-dimensional Ising universality class

Abstract

We investigate several three-dimensional lattice models believed to be in the Ising universality class by means of Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling. These models include spin-1 / 2 models with nearest-neighbor interactions on the simple-cubic and on the diamond lattice. For the simple cubic lattice, we also include models with third-neighbor interactions of varying strength, and some "equivalent-neighbor" models. Also included are a spin-1 model and a hard-core lattice gas. Separate analyses of the numerical data confirm the Ising-like critical behavior of these systems. On this basis, we analyze all these data simultaneously such that the universal parameters occur only once. This leads to an improved accuracy. The thermal, magnetic, and irrelevant exponents are determined as y(t)=1.5868(3), y(h)=2.4816(1), and y(i)=-0.821(5), respectively. The Binder ratio is estimated as Q=<m(2)>(2)/<m(4)>=0.62 341(4).

Ising Universality in Three Dimensions: A Monte Carlo Study

Henk W. J. Blöte, Erik Luijten, Jouke R. Heringa

We investigate three Ising models on the simple cubic lattice by means of Monte Carlo methods and finite-size scaling. These models are the spin- 1 2 Ising model with nearest-neighbor interactions, a spin- 1 2 model with nearest-neighbor and third-neighbor interactions, and a spin-1 model with nearest-neighbor interactions. The results are in accurate agreement with the hypothesis of universality. Analysis of the finite-size scaling behavior reveals corrections beyond those caused by the leading irrelevant scaling field. We find that the correction-to-scaling amplitudes are strongly dependent on the introduction of further-neighbor interactions or a third spin state. In a spin-1 Ising model, these corrections appear to be very small. This is very helpful for the determination of the universal constants of the Ising model. The renormalization exponents of the Ising model are determined as y t =1.587 (2), yh =2.4815 (15) and y i = -0.82 (6). The universal ratio Q = #m 2 # 2 /#m 4...

Finite size scaling study of lattice models in the three-dimensional Ising universality class

Martin Hasenbusch B

We study the spin-1/2 Ising model and the Blume-Capel model at various values of the parameter $D$ on the simple cubic lattice. To this end we perform Monte Carlo simulations using a hybrid of the local Metropolis, the single cluster and the wall cluster algorithm. Using finite size scaling we determine the value ${D}^{\ensuremath{\ast}}=0.656(20)$ of the parameter $D$, where leading corrections to scaling vanish. We find $\ensuremath{\omega}=0.832(6)$ for the exponent of leading corrections to scaling. In order to compute accurate estimates of critical exponents, we construct improved observables that have a small amplitude of the leading correction for any model. Analyzing data obtained for $D=0.641$ and 0.655 on lattices of a linear size up to $L=360$ we obtain $\ensuremath{\nu}=0.63002(10)$ and $\ensuremath{\eta}=0.03627(10)$. We compare our results with those obtained from previous Monte Carlo simulations and high-temperature series expansions of lattice models, by using field-theoretic methods and experiments.

Ising models on the hydrogen peroxide and other lattices

Xiaofeng Qian, Youjin Deng, Щур Лев Николаевич +1 more

We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to be relatively large. Combining the Monte Carlo results for the hydrogen peroxide lattice with those for five other three-dimensional lattices, we obtain a set of data covering a wide range of the irrelevant temperature field. This is helpful in the determination of the parameters describing the corrections to scaling. As a consequence, new results are obtained for the universal parameters describing Ising criticality in three dimensions, with reduced error margins in comparison with earlier Monte Carlo analyses. The critical exponents describing the thermodynamic singularities are determined by the temperature renormalization exponent yt = 1.58693(9) and the magnetic renormalization exponent yh = 2.48178(5). The corrections to scaling are governed by the irrelevant exponent y1 = −0.821(5).

Critical behavior of three-dimensional Ising spin glass models

Martin Hasenbusch B, Andrea Pelissetto C, Ettore Vicari

We perform high-statistics Monte Carlo simulations of three-dimensional Ising spin glass models on cubic lattices of size $L$: the $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}J$ (Edwards-Anderson) Ising model for two values of the disorder parameter $p$, $p=0.5$ and $p=0.7$ (up to $L=28$ and $L=20$, respectively), and the bond-diluted bimodal model for bond-occupation probability ${p}_{b}=0.45$ (up to $L=16$). The finite-size behavior of the quartic cumulants at the critical point allows us to check very accurately that these models belong to the same universality class. Moreover, it allows us to estimate the scaling-correction exponent $\ensuremath{\omega}$ related to the leading irrelevant operator: $\ensuremath{\omega}=1.0(1)$. Shorter Monte Carlo simulations of the bond-diluted bimodal models at ${p}_{b}=0.7$ and ${p}_{b}=0.35$ (up to $L=10$) and of the Ising spin glass model with Gaussian bond distribution (up to $L=8$) also support the existence of a unique Ising spin glass universality class. A careful finite-size analysis of the Monte Carlo data which takes into account the analytic and the nonanalytic corrections to scaling allows us to obtain precise and reliable estimates of the critical exponents. We obtain $\ensuremath{\nu}=2.45(15)$ and $\ensuremath{\eta}=\ensuremath{-}0.375(10)$.

Universality in the partially anisotropic three-dimensional Ising lattice

M. A. Yurishchev

Using transfer-matrix extended phenomenological renormalization-group methods, we study the critical properties of the spin-1/2 Ising model on a simple-cubic lattice with partly anisotropic coupling strengths $$\mathop J\limits^ \to = (J',J',J)$$ . The universality of both fundamental critical exponents y t and y h is confirmed. It is shown that the critical finite-size scaling amplitude ratios $$U = A_{\chi ^{(4)} } A_\kappa /A_\chi ^2 ,Y_1 = A_{\kappa ''} /A_\chi$$ , and $$Y_2 = A_{\kappa ^{(4)} } /A_{\chi ^{(4)} }$$ are independent of the lattice anisotropy parameter Δ=J′/J. For the Y 2 invariant of the three-dimensional Ising universality class, we give the first quantitative estimate Y 2≈2.013 (shape L×L×∞, periodic boundary conditions in both transverse directions).
