The tricritical Ising universality class emerges at the end point of a line of continuous Ising phase transitions, above which the transition is first order. In 1+1 dimensions, it is described by the second minimal model of conformal field theory (CFT) with central charge $c=7/10$ . Recently, there has been a revival of interest in the tricritical Ising model due to its emergent space-time supersymmetry. Combining numerical (infinite density-matrix renormalization group) and field theoretical (bosonization and CFT) techniques, there authors demonstrate here that Ising tricriticality occurs in a paradigmatic extended one dimensional Hubbard model with explicit bond dimerization. The low-energy sector can be described by a triple sine-Gordon model, which, in the transition region, reduces to the tricritical Ising CFT. The theoretically predicted decay of various two-point correlation functions is found to be in excellent agreement with the density-matrix renormalization group data.The tricritical Ising universality class emerges at the end point of a line of continuous Ising phase transitions, above which the transition is first order.
