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

Abstract

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.

Universal Ratios in the 2D Tricritical Ising Model

Davide Fioravanti A, Giuseppe Mussardo, Pascal Simon

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 relations among critical amplitudes of surface quantities

Hans Werner Diehl, Gerhard Gompper, W. Speth

Universal relations among critical amplitudes of surface quantities are discussed for d-dimensional semi-infinite systems near their bulk critical temperature ${T}_{c}^{b}$. Based on the field-theoretic renormalization-group approach, a general derivation of the expected multi-scale-factor universality is given and various universal ratios involving critical amplitudes of the ordinary and special transitions both above and below ${T}_{c}^{b}$ are calculated to first order in \ensuremath{\epsilon}=4-d. In addition, an error in the published one-loop result for the universal order-parameter profile at the ordinary transition of the semi-infinite Ising model is corrected.

High-precision determination of universal amplitude ratios for the q=3 Potts model in two dimensions

Щур Лев Николаевич, Bertrand Berche, P. Butera

Monte Carlo simulations and series expansions data for the energy, specific heat, magnetization, and susceptibility of the three-state Potts model on the square lattice are analyzed in the vicinity of the critical point in order to estimate universal combinations of critical amplitudes. We estimate these amplitudes using the correction-to-scaling exponents predicted by conformal field theory. We also form effective ratios of the observables close to the critical point and analyze how they approach the universal critical-amplitude ratios. In particular, using the duality relation, we show analytically that for the Potts model with a number of states $q\ensuremath{\leqslant}4$, the effective ratio of the energy critical amplitudes always approaches unity linearly with respect to the reduced temperature. This fact leads to the prediction of relations among the amplitudes of correction-to-scaling terms of the specific heat in the low- and high-temperature phases. We present numerical and analytical support for the form of the first two correction-to-scaling terms. Our results for the amplitude ratios closely agree with the theoretical predictions and the earlier numerical estimates of the specific heat and the susceptibility amplitude ratios.

Critical finite-size-scaling amplitudes of a fully anisotropic three-dimensional Ising model

M. A. Yurishchev

A fully anisotropic simple-cubic Ising lattice in the geometry of periodic cylinders n\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}n\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\ensuremath{\infty} is investigated by the transfer-matrix finite-size-scaling method. In addition to the previously obtained critical amplitudes of the inverse correlation lengths and singular part of the free energy [M. A. Yurishchev, Phys. Rev. B 50, 13 533 (1994)], the amplitudes of the usual (``linear'') and nonlinear susceptibilities and the amplitude of the second derivative of the spin-spin inverse correlation length with respect to the external field are calculated. The behavior of critical amplitude combinations (which, in accordance with the Privman-Fisher equations, do not contain in their composition the nonuniversal metric coefficients and geometry prefactor) are studied as a function of the interaction anisotropy parameters. A universality domain for the amplitude ratios is found in the quasi-one-dimensional regime of interactions in the system. In the case of a fully isotropic three-dimensional Ising model for which the high precision values of the critical coupling and critical-point free energy are available, improved estimates are obtained for the following four universal quantities: (1) the amplitude of spin-spin inverse correlation length, (2) the amplitude of singular part of the free energy, (3) the ratio of the amplitude of a second derivative of the spin-spin inverse correlation length with respect to the external field to the usual susceptibility amplitude, and (4) the ratio of the nonlinear susceptibility amplitude to the square of the linear susceptibility amplitude (i.e., for the finite-size counterpart of the four-point renormalized coupling constant).

Form factors of the tricritical three-state Potts model in its scaling limit

Giuseppe Mussardo, Marco Panero C, Andrea Stampiggi

Abstract We compute the form factors of the order and disorder operators, together with those of the stress–energy tensor, of a two-dimensional three-state Potts model with vacancies along its thermal deformation at the critical point. At criticality, the model is described by the non-diagonal partition function of the unitary minimal model M6,7 of conformal field theories and is accompanied by an internalS3symmetry. The off-critical thermal deformation is an integrable massive theory that is still invariant underS3. The presence of infinitely many conserved quantities, whose spin spectrum is related to the exceptional Lie algebraE6, allows us to determine the analyticS-matrix, the exact mass spectrum and the matrix elements of local operators of this model in an exact non-perturbative way. We use the spectral representation series of the correlators and the fast convergence of these series to compute several universal ratios of the renormalization group.
