Non-equilibrium relaxation and interface energy of the Ising model

Published Jan 1, 1993• 90 citations

Abstract

From the non-equilibrium critical relaxation study of the two-dimensional Ising model, the dynamical critical exponent z is estimated to be 2.165 ± 0.010 for this model. The relaxation in the ordered phase of this model is consistent with exp (−√t/τ) behavior. The interface energy of the three-dimensional Ising model is studied and the critical exponent of the correlation length ν and the critical amplitude of the surface tension σ0 are estimated to be 0.6250 ± 0.0025 and 1.42 ± 0.04, respectively. A dynamic Monte Carlo renormalization group method is successfully applied to the equilibrium properties of the three-dimensional Ising model.

Nonequilibrium relaxation of the two-dimensional Ising model: Series-expansion and Monte Carlo studies

Jian‐Sheng Wang, Chee Kwan Gan

We study the critical relaxation of the two-dimensional Ising model from a fully ordered configuration by series expansion in time $t$ and by Monte Carlo simulation. Both the magnetization $(m)$ and energy series are obtained up to 12th order. An accurate estimate from series analysis for the dynamical critical exponent $z$ is difficult but compatible with 2.2. We also use Monte Carlo simulation to determine an effective exponent, ${z}_{\mathrm{eff}}(t)=\ensuremath{-}\frac{1}{8}d\mathrm{ln}t/d\mathrm{ln}m$, directly from a ratio of three-spin correlation to $m$. Extrapolation to $\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{t}\ensuremath{\infty}$ leads to an estimate $z=2.169\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.003$.

MONTE CARLO STUDIES OF THE THREE-DIMENSIONAL ISING MODEL IN EQUILIBRIUM

Martin Hasenbusch B

We review Monte Carlo simulations of the Ising model and similar models in three dimensions that were performed in the last decade. Only recently, Monte Carlo simulations provide more accurate results for critical exponents than field theoretic methods, such as the ∊-expansion. These results were obtained with finite size scaling and "improved actions". In addition, we summarize Monte Carlo results for universal amplitude ratios, the interface tension, and the dimensional crossover from three to two dimensions.

Non-equilibrium critical dynamics with domain interface

Nengji Zhou, Bo Zheng

With Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate the non-equilibrium critical dynamics with a domain interface, taking the two-dimensional Ising model as an example. Starting from a semi-ordered state, the domain interface grows as time evolves. Dynamic scaling behavior is carefully analyzed. The magnetization and Binder cumulant inside the domain interface are governed by critical exponents different from those outside the domain interface. The ageing phenomenon is identified. For comparison, additional simulations starting from an ordered state have been performed with a free surface and a disordered surface.

Off-equilibrium relaxational dynamics with an improved Ising Hamiltonian

Mario Collura

We study the off-equilibrium relaxational dynamics at criticality in the three-dimensional Blume–Capel model whose static critical behaviour belongs to the 3D Ising universality class. Using an 'improved' Hamiltonian (the leading corrections to scaling have vanishing amplitude) we perform Monte Carlo simulations of the relaxational dynamics after a quench from to T c . Analysing the off-equilibrium dynamics at T c we obtain an estimate of the dynamical critical exponent z = 2.020(8) that is perfectly consistent with the field theory predictions.

Monte Carlo Study of the Surface Critical Phenomena of the Ising Model

Macoto Kikuchi, Yutaka Okabe

Monte Carlo technique is applied to the three-dimensional Ising model with free surface. The critical behavior of the layer magnetization, the layer susceptibility and the local susceptibility near the ordinary transition point is investigated. The universal properties of the surface critical exponents and the surface critical amplitude ratios are confirmed. The scaling of magnetization profile is studied, and the bulk amplitude ratio for the correlation length ξ0h / ξ0- is calculated.

Dynamic Critical Exponents of Three-Dimensional Ising Models and Two-Dimensional Three-States Potts Models

Yohsuke Murase, Nobuyasu Ito

Values of dynamic critical exponents are numerically estimated for various models with the nonequilibrium relaxation method to test the dynamic universality hypothesis. The dynamics used here are single-spin update with Metropolis-type transition probabities. The estimated values of nonequilibrium relaxation exponent of magnetization λ m (=β/ z ν) of Ising models on bcc and fcc lattices are estimated to be 0.251(3) and 0.252(3), respectively, which are consistent with the value of the model on simple-cubic lattice, 0.250(2). The dynamic critical exponents of three-states Potts models on square, honeycomb and triangular lattices are also estimated to be 2.193(5), 2.198(4), and 2.199(3), respectively. They are consistent within the error bars. It is also confirmed that Ising models with regularly modulated coupling constants on square lattice have the same dynamic critical exponents with the uniformly ferromagnetic Ising model.
