Abstract

A transfer matrix approach has been worked out to test the predictions of the three-step molecular-field renormalization group (MFRG) for square Ising clusters with linear size up to L = 11.The convergence of the finite-size critical couplings and the critical exponents towards the exact values is shown.

Abstract A transfer matrix approach has been worked out to test the predictions of the improved three‐step mean‐field renormalization group approach to square Ising clusters with linear size up to L = 11. Performing the asymptotic analysis, the convergence of the finite‐size critical couplings and the critical exponents towards the exact values is shown.

Transfer‐matrix study of critical properties of the Ising model following from the three‐cluster MFRG approach

G. Kamieniarz, Daria M. Tomecka

Abstract Using a transfer matrix technique and the Ising model, the predictions of the MFRG concept for clusters with linear size up to 21 have been tested for the three‐cluster MFRG approach. Even for small sizes of the clusters, the three‐cluster estimates of critical couplings and bulk critical exponents give the accuracy level equal to that of two‐cluster renormalization for much greater sizes. Performing the asymptotic analysis for the new data, the convergence of the surface critical exponent yhs towards the exact value is illustrated for the first time. Our improved method has enabled us to obtain the results for clusters with substantially greater sizes, to accelerate the calculations and also to confirm the reliability of the MFRG approach for the Ising model.

MEAN FIELD RENORMALIZATION GROUP FOR ISING MODELS WITH S≥1

D. Peña Lara, J. A. Plascak

The mean field renormalization group is extended in order to study spin-S Ising models (S≥1) by introducing additional parameters in the Hamiltonians of the clusters, in the same spirit as the mean field approach. These new parameters are then consistently obtained according to finite size scaling ideas and quite good results are obtained, even for the smallest choice of the clusters. Moreover, the mean value of the square of the spin along the second-order transition line can also be obtained from the present formalism.

MEAN-FIELD RENORMALIZATION GROUP: BIBLIOGRAPHY AND NEW APPLICATIONS USING LARGE CLUSTERS

Kathleen Croes, Joseph O. Indekeu

Renormalization group recursions based on mean-field approximations [J. O. Indekeu, A. Maritan, and A. L. Stella, J. Phys.A15, L291 (1982)], commonly referred to as mean-field renormalization group methods (MFRG), have proven to be efficient and easily applicable for computing non-classical critical properties of lattice models. We give a fairly complete bibliography of applications to date, and extend previous test calculations of bulk, surface, and corner critical exponents in the two-dimensional Ising model to larger cluster sizes on triangular, square (including crossing bonds), and honeycomb lattices. Without much effort the exact value of the critical exponent ratioyH/yT is reproduced systematically with a precision of 2%. This ratio turns out to be the most accurate probe of non-classical critical behaviour that is available in the MFRG method.

Mean-field renormalization group for the boundary magnetization of strip clusters

Alessandro Pelizzola, Attilio L. Stella

We analyse in some detail a recently proposed transfer matrix mean-field approximation which yields the exact critical point for several two-dimensional nearest-neighbour Ising models. For the square lattice model we show explicitly that this approximation yields not only the exact critical point, but also the exact boundary magnetization of a semi-infinite Ising model, independent of the size of the strips used. Then we develop a new mean-field renormalization-group strategy based on this approximation and make connections with finite size scaling. Applying our strategy to the quadratic Ising and three-state Potts models we obtain results for the critical exponents which are in very good agreement with the exact ones. In this way we also clarify some advantages and limitations of the mean field renormalization group approach.
