Renormalization group at criticality and complete analyticity of constrained models: A numerical study

We study the majority rule transformation applied to the Gibbs measure for the 2D Ising model at the critical point. The aim is to show that the renormalized Hamiltonian is well defined in the sense that the renormalized measure is Gibbsian. We analyze the validity of Dobrushin-Shlosman uniqueness (DSU) finite-size condition for the constrained models corresponding to different configurations of the image system. It is known that DSU implies, in our 2D case, complete analyticity from which, as recently shown by Haller and Kennedy. Gibbsianness follows. We introduce a Monte Carlo algorithm to compute an upper bound to Vasserstein distance (appearing in DSU) between finite-volume Gibbs measures with different boundary conditions. We get strong numerical evidence that indeed the DSU condition is verified for a large enough volumeV for all constrained models.

Universality and Conformal Invariance for the Ising Model in Domains with Boundary

The partition function with boundary conditions for various two-dimensional Ising models is examined and previously unobserved properties of nonformal invariance and universality are established numerically.     

Conformal invariance and surface defects in the two-dimensional Ising model. Exact results

The surface critical behavior of the two-dimensional Ising model with homogeneous perturbations in the surface interactions is studied on the one-dimensional quantum version. A transfer-matrix method leads to an eigenvalue equation for the excitation energies. The spectrum at the bulk critical point is obtained using anL ^–1 expansion, whereL is the length of the Ising chain. It exhibits the towerlike structure which is characteristic of conformal models in the case of irrelevant surface perturbations (h _s /J _s 0) as well as for the relevant perturbationh _s =0 for which the surface is ordered at the bulk critical point leading to an extraordinary surface transition. The exponents are deduced from the gap amplitudes and confirmed by exact finite-size scaling calculations. Both cases are finally related through a duality transformation.     

The roughening transition of the three-dimensional Ising interface: A Monte Carlo study

We study the roughening transition of an interface in an Ising system on a 3D simple cubic lattice using a finite-size scaling method. The particular method has recently been proposed and successfully tested for various solid-on-solid models. The basic idea is the matching of the renormalization-groupflow of the interface with that of the exactly solvable body-centered cubic solid-on-solid model. We unambiguously confirm the Kosterlitz-Thouless nature of the roughening transition of the Ising interface. Our result for the inverse transition temperatureK _r=0.40754(5) is almost two orders of magnitude more accurate than the estimate of Mon, Landau, and Stauffer.     

Finite-Size Scaling in the Energy-Entropy Plane for the 2D ± Ising Spin Glass

For L × L square lattices with L ≤ 20 the 2D Ising spin glass with +1 and −1 bonds is found to have a strong correlation between the energy and the entropy of its ground states. A fit to the data gives the result that each additional broken bond in the ground state of a particular sample of random bonds increases the ground state degeneracy by approximately a factor of 10/3. For x=0.5 (where x is the fraction of negative bonds), over this range of L, the characteristic entropy defined by the energy-entropy correlation scales with size as L ^1.78(2). Anomalous scaling is not found for the characteristic energy, which essentially scales as L ². When x=0.25, a crossover to L ² scaling of the entropy is seen near L=12. The results found here suggest a natural mechanism for the unusual behavior of the low temperature specific heat of this model, and illustrate the dangers of extrapolating from small L.

Tests for Monte Carlo renormalization studies on Ising models

In this expanded version of an earlier letter, we consider many computational details that were omitted for want of space. Ford = 2 Ising spins with up to 13 different short-range interactions, we construct the critical surface in the vicinity of (Onsager's) nearest-neighbor (nn) critical point by using the body of the available information on the solvable nn case. We then see if the Monte Carlo renormalization group flows generated from this point do indeed lie on this surface and quantify the errors if they do not.     

On the critical behavior of the Ising model with mixed two- and three-spin interactions

A study is made of a two-dimensional Ising model with staggered three-spin interactions in one direction and two-spin interactions in the other. The phase diagram of the model and its critical behavior are explored by conventional finite-size scaling and by exploiting relations between mass gap amplitudes and critical exponents predicted by conformal invariance. The model is found to exhibit a line of continuously varying critical exponents, which bifurcates into two Ising critical lines. This similarity of the model with the Ashkin-Teller model leads to a conjecture for the exact critical indices along the nonuniversal critical curve. Earlier contradictions about the universality class of the uniform (isotropic) case of the model are clarified.     

The dynamic critical exponent of the three-dimensional Ising model

We measure the dynamic exponent of the three-dimensional Ising model using a damage spreading Monte Carlo approach as described by MacIsaac and Jan. We simulate systems fromL=5 toL=60 at the critical temperature,T _c =4.5115. We report a dynamic exponent,z=2.35±0.05, a value much larger than the consensus value of 2.02, whereas if we assume logarithmic corrections, we find thatz=2.05±0.05.     

Corrections to the critical temperature in 2D Ising systems with Kac potentials

We consider ad=2 Ising system with a Kac potential whose mean-field critical temperature is 1. Calling >0 the Kac parameter, we prove that there existsc ^*>0 so that the true inverse critical temperature _cr() > 1 +by ² log ^-1, for anyb<c ^* and correspondingly small. We also show that if 0 andbc ^*, suitably, then the correlation functions (normalized and rescaled) converge to those of a non-Gaussian Euclidean field theory.

Magnetic properties of 2D nano-islands I: Ising spin model

An Ising spin effective field theory (EFT) is developed as a framework for a detailed analysis of the magnetic properties of two-dimensional (2D) nano-islands on a nonmagnetic substrate with an out of plane magnetization. The Hamiltonian with nearest neighbor exchange interactions and single-atom magnetic anisotropy defines the ground state. The calculation yields the single site spin correlations, the magnetizations, and the isothermal susceptibilities for the core and periphery domains, and the island core phase diagrams. The choice of a spin S=1 for the atoms permits the analysis of the effects of spin fluctuations via the single site spin correlations. In particular we investigate the effects due to the different anisotropies and reduced dimensionalities for the core and periphery domains. The present model calculations are developed for different 2D nano-islands lattices. Detailed theoretical results are presented for the square and hexagonal lattices, with numerical applications for the 2D Co nano-islands on Pt. The derived transition temperature for the hexagonal lattice nano-islands is in good agreement with the experimental data for Co nano-islands on Pt. Though both the core and the periphery domains have the same order-disorder transition temperature, the magnetization of each domain attains this transition differently. The temperature behavior of the spin correlations is also fundamentally different for the periphery and core sites, which entails distinctly different isothermal susceptibilities, and yields statistically averaged nano-islands susceptibilities that do not correspond to a second order phase transition. The experimental susceptibility results for 2D Co nano-islands on Pt can be interpreted within our EFT Ising model without reference to a transition from a blocking state of the particle to a superparamagnetic behavior. The results for the different lattices are formally comparable, and demonstrate the robustness and general character of the model.     

Subdominant critical singularities in the bcc Ising model

In order to analyze coalescing singularities using series expansion, a modification of the method introduced by Baker and Hunter is proposed. The Padé approximants on the Mellin transform are computed simultaneously for the initial series and its derivatives, allowing unbiased estimates for the critical parameters. The method is applied to the series generated by Nickel for various values of the spin in the bcc Ising model. We show that even with these longer series, the subdominant indices display large variation with the spin, and remain too small compared to the universal renormalization group prediction. However, the method does not detect other singularities in the temperature plane which are responsible for the observed discrepancy. Therefore the discrepancy is not significant.     

Transfer matrix spectrum for the finite-width Ising model with adjustable boundary conditions: Exact solution

Using the spinor approach, we calculate exactly the complete spectrum of the transfer matrix for the finite-width, planar Ising model with adjustable boundary conditions. Specifically, in order to control the boundary conditions, we consider an Ising model wrapped around the cylinder, and introduce along the axis a seam of defect bonds of variable strength. Depending on the boundary conditions used, the mass gap is found to vanish algebraically or exponentially with the size of the system. These results are compared with recent numerical simulations, and with random-walk and capillary-wave arguments.     

A Renormalization Group Study of the Ising Model on a Triangular Lattice with Long-Range Interactions

The critical exponents of the triangular lattice Ising model with long-range interactions γ^-s are calculated by the real space renormalization group. Using the simplest Kadanoff blocks and the lowest approximation of cumulant expansion, it is shown that there exists a finite critical temperature when 4(1 - ㏑2/㏑3) < s < 4.     

Critical Exponents of the Diluted Ising Model between Dimensions 2 and 4

Within the massive field-theoretic renormalization-group approach the expressions for the and functions of the anisotropic mn-vector model are obtained for general space dimension d in three-loop approximation. Resumming corresponding asymptotic series, critical exponents for the case of the weakly diluted quenched Ising model (m = 1, n = 0), as well as estimates for the marginal order parameter component number m _c of the weakly diluted quenched m-vector model, are calculated as functions of d in the region 2 d < 4. Conclusions concerning the effectiveness of different resummation techniques are drawn.     

Construction of simple approximants for the structure factor and magnetization for the simple cubic Ising model

A renormalization group method is used to construct approximants for the magnetization,m, and the static structure factor, (q), for the simple cubic Ising model. Using the best values for the thermal critical index, the transition temperature, and the nearest-neighbor correlation function as input, we obtain recursion relations form and (q) which lead to reasonable results over a wide range of temperatures and wave numbers.
