Yang-Lee zeros of triangular Ising antiferromagnets

In our previous research, by combining both the exact enumeration method (microcanonical transfer matrix) for a small system (L=9) with the Wang-Landau Monte Carlo algorithm for large systems (to L=30) we obtained the exact and approximate densities of states g(M,E), as a function of the magnetization M and exchange energy E, for a triangular-lattice Ising model. In this paper, based on the density of states g(M,E), the precise distribution of the Yang-Lee zeros of triangular-lattice Ising antiferromagnets is obtained in a uniform magnetic field as a function of temperature for a 9×9 lattice system. Also, the feasibility of the Yang-Lee zero approach combined with the Wang-Landau algorithm is demonstrated; as a result, we obtained the magnetic exponents for triangular Ising antiferromagnets at various temperatures.
