Abstract

At zero temperature, based on the Ising model, the phase transition in a two-dimensional square lattice is studied using the generalized zero-temperature Glauber dynamics. Using Monte Carlo (MC) renormalization group methods, the static critical exponents and the dynamic exponent are studied; the type of phase transition is found to be of the first order.

Monte Carlo Calculation of the Ising Model on the Square Lattice Under Glauber and Kawasaki Dynamics

Wang Chun-an

The critical temperature of the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic phase transition on the Ising model of the square lattice is studied by means of the Monte Carlo method.The Glauber and Kawasaki dynamics are considered in the calculation for the stochastic and sequent processes and their effects on the critical temperatures are discussed.It's shown that the critical temperature can be calculated in the stochastic and sequent processes when the Glauber dynamic is in the lead.But only in the stochastic process the critical temperature can be calculated when the Kawasaki dynamic is in the lead.

Nonequilibrium phase transition in an Ising model without detailed balance

Manoj Kumar, Chandan Dasgupta

We study a two-dimensional ferromagnetic Ising model in which spins are updated using modified versions of the Metropolis and Glauber algorithms. These update rules do not obey the detailed balance condition. The steady-state behavior of the model is studied using molecular field theory and Monte Carlo simulations. This model is found to exhibit a nonequilibrium phase transition from a "paramagnetic" state with zero magnetization to a "ferromagnetic" state with nonzero magnetization as the variable that plays the role of temperature in the spin updates is decreased. From detailed Monte Carlo simulations using the modified Metropolis algorithm, we demonstrate explicitly the nonequilibrium nature of the transition and show that it cannot be described as an equilibrium transition with an effective temperature different from the temperature used in the spin updates. The critical exponents that characterize the singular behavior near this continuous phase transition are calculated from finite size scaling of specific heat, magnetization, susceptibility, and correlation length. We find that the values of these exponents are the same (within error bars) as those of the equilibrium Ising model in two dimensions.

Critical Properties of a Spin-3/2 Ising Model on a Square Lattice

Norihiro Tsushima, Yasushi Honda, Tsuyoshi Horiguchi

We investigate a spin-3/2 Ising model on a square lattice by using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and a density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method. We obtain phase diagrams of the ground state. We carried out the MC simulations in order to calculate the critical temperature and the critical exponent η. We estimate the critical exponents ν, α and γ by using a finite size scaling analysis. We also calculate the critical temperature, the central charge c and the critical exponent ν by using the DMRG method. From the results obtained by the MC simulations and by the DMRG method, we discuss a universality class of the system. It is found that the values of critical exponents are determined by means of the degeneracy of the ground state. This result suggests that the universality does not hold for the spin-3/2 Ising model. Furthermore we find a possibility of a breakdown of the hyperscaling law. We also confirm that the ferrimagnetic phase exists in a parameter region where the ground state has a fourfold degeneracy, and that a transition between the ferrimagnetic phase and the ferromagnetic phase exists in addition to that between the ferromagnetic phase and the paramagnetic phase.

Monte Carlo simulation of an antiferromagnetic Ising model at two competing temperatures

B. C. S. Grandi, W. Figueiredo

We consider a two-dimensional antiferromagnet Ising system interacting with a heat bath at temperature T. The dynamics of the system is simulated by two competing stochastic processes: the two-spin-exchange Kawasaki kinetics at temperature T>0 and the one-spin-flip Glauber dynamics at T(G)-->0(-), which mimics the increase of the energy of the system. These two processes have probabilities 1-p and p, respectively. Monte Carlo simulations were employed to determine the phase diagram for the stationary states of the model and the corresponding critical exponents. Contrary to the ferromagnetic case, the phase diagram obtained does not exhibit the phenomenon of self-organization: for any nonzero value of the competing parameter p, and for any value of T, the only stationary phase which remains is the ferromagnetic one. At the phase transition between the antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases, at p=0, the values found for the critical exponents agree with those of the corresponding equilibrium Ising model.

Monte Carlo Studies of the Square Lattice Ising System with the Two-Dimensional Dipolar Interaction

Seizo Watarai, Keizô Yamamoto, Akira Nakanishi

Monte Carlo simulations are performed on the square lattice Ising system with both the nearest neighbor and the two-dimensional dipolar interactions in order to investigate the critical property of ferromagnetic phase transitions in this 2-dimensional system. Applying the finite size scaling theory to Monte Carlo data just near the transition point, the critical indices of this dipolar system are calculated and α=0.31±0.04, β =0.20±0.02, γ=1.08±0.20 and ν=0.72±0.10 are obtained. However, in the temperature region considerably far from the transition point, different values of α, β and γ seem to be adequate, which are rather close to those of the rigorous result of the 2-dimensional Ising model.

Short-time dynamics for the spin- 32 Blume-Capel model

B. C. S. Grandi, W. Figueiredo

We employed Monte Carlo simulations and short-time dynamic scaling to determine the static and dynamic critical exponents for the generalized two-dimensional Blume-Capel model of spin-3/2. We showed that the critical behavior at the second-order phase-transition line between the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases is in the same universality class of the two-dimensional Ising model. However, at the double critical end point, which is present in the phase diagram of the model, the critical exponent beta , associated to the order parameter, is different from that of the Ising model.
