Abstract

Duality relations for the two-dimensional nonhomogeneous Ising model on the finite square lattice wrapped on the torus are obtained. The partition function of the model on the dual lattice with arbitrary combinations of the periodical and antiperiodical boundary conditions along the cycles of the torus is expressed through some specific combination of the partition functions of the model on the original lattice with corresponding boundary conditions. It is shown that the structure of the duality relations is connected with the topological peculiarities of the dual transformation of the model on the torus.

Duality in 2D Spin Models on Torus

A. I. Bugrij, V. N. Shadura

Method of derivation of the duality relations for two-dimensional Z(N)-symmetric spin models on finite square lattice wrapped on the torus is proposed. As example, exact duality relations for the nonhomogeneous Ising model (N=2) and the Z(N)-Berezinsky-Villain model are obtained.

Anisotropic scaling of the two-dimensional Ising model I: the torus

Hendrik Hobrecht, Alfred Hucht

We present detailed calculations for the partition function and the free energy of the finite two-dimensional square lattice Ising model with periodic and antiperiodic boundary conditions, variable aspect ratio, and anisotropic couplings, as well as for the corresponding universal free energy finite-size scaling functions. Therefore, we review the dimer mapping, as well as the interplay between its topology and the different types of boundary conditions. As a central result, we show how both the finite system as well as the scaling form decay into contributions for the bulk, a characteristic finite-size part, and – if present – the surface tension, which emerges due to at least one antiperiodic boundary in the system. For the scaling limit we extend the proper finite-size scaling theory to the anisotropic case and show how this anisotropy can be absorbed into suitable scaling variables.

Two-dimensional Ising model: Duality and boundary conditions

A. I. Bugriĭ, V. N. Shadura

Duality relations are derived between the Ising model on a square lattice wrapped on a cylinder with a defect and with free boundary conditions at the ends and the Ising model with magnetic fields applied at the ends of the cylinder. We derive as a consequence of these relations the duality relations for Ising models with free, mixed, and fixed boundary conditions at the ends of the cylinder.

Duality in two-dimensional Z(N)-symmetric spin models on a finite lattice

A. I. Bugriĭ, V. N. Shadura

We propose a method for deriving duality relations for two-dimensional inhomogeneous Z ( N )-symmetric models on a finite square lattice wound around a torus. The method is used to obtain duality relations for the vector Potts model, the Berezinskii-Villain Z ( N )-model, the Ashkin-Teller model, and the 8-vertex model on a lattice obliquely wound around a torus, as well as an exact relation linking the partition functions of the latter two models.

Simplified transfer matrix approach in the two-dimensional Ising model with various boundary conditions

Boris Kastening

A recent simplified transfer matrix solution of the two-dimensional Ising model on a square lattice with periodic boundary conditions is generalized to periodic-antiperiodic, antiperiodic-periodic, and antiperiodic-antiperiodic boundary conditions. It is suggested to employ linear combinations of the resulting partition functions to investigate finite-size scaling. An exact relation of such a combination to the partition function corresponding to Brascamp-Kunz boundary conditions is found.
