Abstract

We use the results of integrable field theory to determine the universal amplitude ratios in the two-dimensional Ising model. In particular, the exact values of the ratios involving amplitudes computed at nonzero magnetic field are provided.

Universal Ratios in the 2D Tricritical Ising Model

We consider the universality class of the two-dimensional tricritical Ising model. The scaling form of the free energy leads to the definition of universal ratios of critical amplitudes which may have experimental relevance. We compute these universal ratios by a combined use of results coming from perturbed conformal field theory, integrable quantum field theory, and numerical methods.

Universal amplitude ratios in finite-size scaling: three-dimensional Ising model

Martin Weigel, Wolfhard Janke A

Motivated by the results of two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) we investigate the finite-size scaling of the mass spectrum of an Ising model on three-dimensional lattices with a spherical cross section. Using a cluster-update Monte Carlo technique we find a linear relation between the masses and the corresponding scaling dimensions, in complete analogy to the situation in two dimensions. Amplitude ratios as well as the amplitudes themselves appear to be universal in this case. 1.

Universal amplitude ratios of the renormalization group: Two-dimensional tricritical Ising model

Davide Fioravanti A, Giuseppe Mussardo, Pascal Simon

The scaling form of the free energy near a critical point allows for the definition of various thermodynamical amplitudes and the determination of their dependence on the microscopic nonuniversal scales. Universal quantities can be obtained by considering special combinations of the amplitudes. Together with the critical exponents they characterize the universality classes and may be useful quantities for their experimental identification. We compute the universal amplitude ratios for the tricritical Ising model in two dimensions by using several theoretical methods from perturbed conformal field theory and scattering integrable quantum field theory. The theoretical approaches are further supported and integrated by results coming from a numerical determination of the energy eigenvalues and eigenvectors of off-critical systems in an infinite cylinder.The scaling form of the free energy near a critical point allows for the definition of various thermodynamical amplitudes and the determination of their dependence on the microscopic nonuniversal scales.

Universal amplitude ratios in the critical two-dimensional Ising model on a torus

Salas, J, Alan D. Sokal

Using results from conformal field theory, we compute several universal amplitude ratios for the two-dimensional Ising model at criticality on a symmetric torus. These include the correlation-length ratio x* = lim(L-->infinity) xi(L)/L and the first four magnetization moment ratios V-2n = [M-2n]/[M-2](n). As a corollary we get the first four renormalized 2n-point coupling constants for the massless theory on a symmetric torus, G(2n)*. We confirm these predictions by a high-precision Monte Carlo simulation.Using results from conformal field theory, we compute several universal amplitude ratios for the two-dimensional Ising model at criticality on a symmetric torus.

Integrable field theory and critical phenomena: the Ising model in a magnetic field

Gesualdo Delfino A

The two-dimensional Ising model is the simplest model of statistical mechanics exhibiting a second-order phase transition. While in absence of magnetic field it is known to be solvable on the lattice since Onsager's work of the 1940s, exact results for the magnetic case have been missing until the late 1980s, when A Zamolodchikov solved the model in a field at the critical temperature, directly in the scaling limit, within the framework of integrable quantum field theory. In this paper, we review this field theoretical approach to the Ising universality class, with particular attention to the results obtained starting from Zamolodchikov's scattering solution and to their comparison with the numerical estimates on the lattice. The topics discussed include scattering theory, form factors, correlation functions, universal amplitude ratios and perturbations around integrable directions. Although we restrict our discussion to the Ising model, the emphasis is on the general methods of integrable quantum field theory which can be used in the study of all universality classes of critical behaviour in two dimensions.The two-dimensional Ising model is the simplest model of statistical mechanics exhibiting a second-order phase transition.
