On the existence of an analytic solution to the 1-D Ising model with nearest and next-nearest neighbor interactions in the presence of a magnetic field

Farid Taherkhani, Ebrahim Daryaei, Hadi Abroshan +3 more

To solve the controversy, regarding the existence of an analytic solution to the 1-D Ising model with nearest-neighbor (NN) and next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) interactions in the presence of a magnetic field, we apply the transfer matrix method to solve the 1-D Ising model in the presence of a magnetic field, taking both NN and NNN interactions into account. We show that it is possible to write a transfer matrix only if the number of sites is even. Even in such a case, it is impossible to diagonalize the transfer matrix in an analytic form. Therefore, we employ a numerical method to obtain the eigenvalues of the transfer matrix. Moreover, the heat capacity, magnetization, and magnetic susceptibility versus temperature for different values of the competition factor (the ratio of NNN to NN interactions) are shown.

Ising-like phase transition in the square lattice fully frustrated XY model with nearest next neighbor couplings

Ren Qing

The Isinglike phase transition in the square lattice fully frustrated XY model with nearest next neighbor (NNN) couplings is studied using the finitesize scaling theory. The critical temperature Tc and static critical exponents 2β/ν and ν are determined. When the NNN coupling variable x=0.5, it is found that in the model exists Isinglike phase transition with the critical temperature Tc=0.404 3±0.000 5 and ν= 0.80±0.05.

Triangular Ising model with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor couplings in a field

Xiaofeng Qian, Henk W. J. Blöte

The authors study the Ising model on the triangular lattice with nearest-neighbor couplings K(nn) , next-nearest-neighbor couplings K(nnn) >0 , and a magnetic field H . This work is done by means of finite-size scaling of numerical results of transfer matrix calculations, and Monte Carlo simulations. We determine the phase diagram and confirm the character of the critical manifolds. The emphasis of this work is on the antiferromagnetic case K(nn) <0 , but we also explore the ferromagnetic regime K(nn) >/=0 for H=0 . For K(nn) <0 and H=0 we locate a critical phase presumably covering the whole range -infinity< K(nn) <0 . For K(nn) <0 , H not equal 0 we locate a plane of phase transitions containing a line of tricritical three-state Potts transitions. In the limit H-->infinity this line leads to a tricritical model of hard hexagons with an attractive next-nearest-neighbor potential.
