Abstract

We investigate the dynamic critical exponent of the two-dimensional Ising model defined on a curved surface with constant negative curvature. By using the short-time relaxation method, we find a quantitative alteration of the dynamic exponent from the known value for the planar Ising model. This phenomenon is attributed to the fact that the Ising lattices embedded on negatively curved surfaces act as ones in infinite dimensions, thus yielding the dynamic exponent deduced from mean field theory. We further demonstrate that the static critical exponent for the correlation length exhibits the mean field exponent, which agrees with the existing results obtained from canonical Monte Carlo simulations.

Geometric effects on critical behaviours of the Ising model

Hiroyuki Shima, Yasunori Sakaniwa

We investigate the critical behaviour of the two-dimensional Ising model defined on a curved surface with a constant negative curvature. Finite-size scaling analysis reveals that the critical exponents for the zero-field magnetic susceptibility and the correlation length deviate from those for the Ising lattice model on a flat plane. Furthermore, when reducing the effects of boundary spins, the values of the critical exponents tend to those derived from the mean field theory. These findings evidence that the underlying geometric character is responsible for the critical properties of the Ising model when the lattice is embedded on negatively curved surfaces.

Critical fluctuations at a finite-time dynamical phase transition

Nalina Vadakkayil, Massimiliano Esposito, Jan Meibohm

We explore the critical properties of the recently discovered finite-time dynamical phase transition in the nonequilibrium relaxation of Ising magnets after a temperature quench. The transition is characterized by a sudden switch in the relaxation dynamics and it occurs at a sharp critical time. While previous works have focused either on mean-field interactions or on investigating the critical time, we analyze the critical fluctuations at the phase transition in the nearest-neighbor Ising model on a square lattice using Monte Carlo simulations. By means of a finite-size scaling analysis, we extract the critical exponents for the transition. In two spatial dimensions, we find that the exponents are consistent with those of the two-dimensional Ising universality class when the system is initially in the vicinity of the critical point. For initial temperatures below the critical one, however, the critical exponents differ from the Ising-exponents, indicating a distinct dynamical critical phenomenon.

Non-equilibrium relaxation and interface energy of the Ising model

Nobuyasu Ito

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.

SHORT-TIME DYNAMIC EXPONENTS OF AN ISING MODEL WITH COMPETING INTERACTIONS

Nelson A. Alves, J. R. Drugowich de Felício

In this work the two-dimensional Ising model with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions is revisited. We obtain the dynamic critical exponents z and θ from short-time Monte Carlo simulations. The dynamic critical exponent z is obtained from the time behavior of the ratio [Formula: see text], whereas the non-universal exponent θ is estimated from the time correlation of the order parameter <M(0)M(t)> ~ tθ, where M(t) is the order parameter at instant t, d is the dimension of the system and <(⋯)> is the average of the quantity (⋯) over different samples. We also obtain the static critical exponents β and ν by investigating the time behavior of the magnetization.

Dynamic Monte Carlo Measurement of Critical Exponents

Zhibing Li, Lothar Schülke, Bo Zheng

Based on the scaling relation for the dynamics at the early time, a new method is proposed to measure both the static and dynamic critical exponents. The method is applied to the two-dimensional Ising model. The results are in good agreement with the existing results. Since the measurement is carried out in the initial stage of the relaxation process starting from independent initial configurations, our method is efficient.

DYNAMIC CRITICAL EXPONENTS OF THE ISING MODEL WITH MULTISPIN INTERACTIONS

César Simões, J. R. Drugowich de Felício

We revisit the short-time dynamics of 2D Ising model with three spin interactions in one direction and estimate the critical exponents z, θ, β and ν. Taking properly into account the symmetry of the Hamiltonian, we obtain results completely different from those obtained by Wang et al.10 For the dynamic exponent z our result coincides with that of the 4-state Potts model in two dimensions. In addition, results for the static exponents ν and β agree with previous estimates obtained from finite size scaling combined with conformal invariance. Finally, for the new dynamic exponent θ we find a negative and close to zero value, a result also expected for the 4-state Potts model according to Okano et al.
