RENORMALIZATION OF THE ONE-DIMENSIONAL QUANTUM ISING MODEL
Amalio F. Pacheco
Abstract
Using the framework of the SLAC lattice approach it is shown that a symmetric block spinning between link and site terms in the Hamiltonian of the one-dimensional quantum Ising Model provides exact known results for both critical coupling constant and thermal exponent.The ground state energy density calculated in this way exhibits in the critical point a divergence in its second derivative.
