Kinetic Ising model in a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field: effective-field theory

Recently,Shi et al.[2008 Phys.Lett.A 372 5922] have studied the dynamical response of the kinetic Ising model in the presence of a sinusoidal oscillating field and presented the dynamic phase diagrams by using an effective-field theory(EFT) and a mean-field theory(MFT).The MFT results are in conflict with those of the earlier work of Tom’e and de Oliveira,[1990 Phys.Rev.A 41 4251].We calculate the dynamic phase diagrams and find that our results are similar to those of the earlier work of Tom’e and de Oliveira;hence the dynamic phase diagrams calculated by Shi et al.are incomplete within both theories,except the low values of frequencies for the MFT calculation.We also investigate the influence of external field frequency(ω) and static external field amplitude(h0) for both MFT and EFT calculations.We find that the behaviour of the system strongly depends on the values of ω and h0.     

Magnetic Properties of Transverse Ising Model under a Time Oscillating Longitudinal Field

A transverse Ising spin system, in the presence of time-dependentlongitudinal field, is studied by the effective-field theory (EFT). Theeffective-field equations of motion of the average magnetization are givenfor the simple cubic lattice (Z = 6) and the honeycomb lattice (Z = 3).The Liapunov exponent λ is calculated for discussing the stability of the magnetization and it is used to determine the phase boundary. Thedynamic phase transition diagrams in h₀/ ZJ -Γ/ZJ plane and in h₀/ZJ-T/ZJ plane have been drawn, and there is no dynamical tricritical point on the dynamic phase transition boundary. The effect of the thermal fluctuations upon the dynamic phase boundary has been discussed.     

An Improved Heterogeneous Mean-Field Theory for the Ising Model on Complex Networks

Heterogeneous mean-field theory is commonly used methodology to study dynamical processes on complex networks,such as epidemic spreading and phase transitions in spin models.In this paper,we propose an improved heterogeneous mean-field theory for studying the Ising model on complex networks.Our method shows a more accurate prediction in the critical temperature of the Ising model than the previous heterogeneous mean-field theory.The theoretical results are validated by extensive Monte Carlo simulations in various types of networks.     

Ising Model on an Infinite Ladder Lattice

In this paper we propose an Ising model on an infinite ladder lattice, which is made of two infinite Ising spin chains with interactions. It is essentially a quasi-one-dimessional Ising model because the length of the ladder lattice is infinite, while its width is finite. We investigate the phase transition and dynamic behavior of Ising model on this quasi-one-dimessional system. We use the generalized transfer matrix method to investigate the phase transition of the system. It is found that there is no nonzero temperature phase transition in this system. At the same time, we are interested in Glauber dynamics. Based on that, we obtain the time evolution of the local spin magnetization by exactly solving a set of master equations.

Interference in the Quantum Ising Model

Using the measure of interference defined in this paper, we investigate the quantum phase transition of one-dimensional Ising chains. We find that thermal fluctuations affect the interference more strongly at the critical point. We also show that the derivative of the interference with respect to the coupling parameter, A, can be depressed by the thermal fluctuation. Finally, we find that this suppression is due to multi-particle excitations.     

Dynamic compensation temperature in kinetic spin-5/2 Ising model on hexagonal lattice

We present a study of the dynamic behavior of a two-sublattice spin-5/2 Ising model with bilinear and crystal-field interactions in the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field on alternate layers of a hexagonal lattice by using the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics. The lattice is formed by alternate layers of spins σ=5/2 and S=5/2. We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the mean-field dynamic equations. First, we investigate the time variations of the average sublattice magnetizations to find the phases in the system and then the thermal behavior of the dynamic sublattice magnetizations to characterize the nature (first- or second-order) of the phase transitions and to obtain the dynamic phase transition (DPT) points. We also study the thermal behavior of the dynamic total magnetization to find the dynamic compensation temperature and to determine the type of the dynamic compensation behavior. We present the dynamic phase diagrams, including the dynamic compensation temperatures, in nine different planes. The phase diagrams contain seven different fundamental phases, thirteen different mixed phases, in which the binary and ternary combination of fundamental phases and the compensation temperature or the L-type behavior strongly depend on the interaction parameters.     

High—Temperature Cutoff Approximation of the 3D kinetic Ising Model

A single-spin transition critical dynamics is used to investigate the three-dimensional kinetic Ising model on an anisotropic cubic lattice,We first derive the fundamental dynamical equations.and then linearize them by a cutoff approximation.We obtain the approximate solutions of the local magnetization and equal-time pair correlation function approximation.We obtain the approximate solutions of the local magnetization and equal-time pair correlation function in zero field.In which the axial-decoupling terms γ1γ2,γ2γ3and γ1γ3as higher infinitesimal quantity are ignored,where γα=tanh(2k0633)=tanh(2Jα/kβT）（α=1,2,3,)We think that it is reasonable as the temperature of the system is very high.The result of what we obtain in this paper can go back to the one-dimensional Glauber‘s theory as long as k2=k3=0.

Some New Results on the Kinetic Ising Model in a Pure Phase

We consider a general class of Glauber dynamics reversible with respect to the standard Ising model in ^d with zero external field and inverse temperature strictly larger than the critical value _c in dimension 2 or the so called slab threshold in dimension d 3. We first prove that the inverse spectral gap in a large cube of side N with plus boundary conditions is, apart from logarithmic corrections, larger than N in d = 2 while the logarithmic Sobolev constant is instead larger than N ² in any dimension. Such a result substantially improves over all the previous existing bounds and agrees with a similar computations obtained in the framework of a one dimensional toy model based on mean curvature motion. The proof, based on a suggestion made by H. T. Yau some years ago, explicitly constructs a subtle test function which forces a large droplet of the minus phase inside the plus phase. The relevant bounds for general d 2 are then obtained via a careful use of the recent –approach to the Wulff construction. Finally we prove that in d = 2 the probability that two independent initial configurations, distributed according to the infinite volume plus phase and evolving under any coupling, agree at the origin at time t is bounded from below by a stretched exponential , again apart from logarithmic corrections. Such a result should be considered as a first step toward a rigorous proof that, as conjectured by Fisher and Huse some years ago, the equilibrium time auto-correlation of the spin at the origin decays as a stretched exponential in d = 2.

Existence and Order of the Phase Transition of the Ising Model with Fixed Magnetization

Properties of the two dimensional Ising model with fixed magnetization are deduced from known exact results on the two dimensional Ising model. The existence of a continuous phase transition is shown for arbitrary values of the fixed magnetization when crossing the boundary of the coexistence region. Modifications of this result for systems of spatial dimension greater than two are discussed.     

Thermodynamics properties of an anisotropic Ising antiferromagnet in both external longitudinal and transverse fields

We have studied the anisotropic two-dimensional nearest-neighbor Ising model with competitive interactions in both uniform longitudinal field H$H$ and transverse magnetic field Ω$\Omega$. Using the effective-field theory (EFT) with correlation in cluster with N=1$N=1$ spin we calculate the thermodynamic properties as a function of temperature with values H$H$ and Ω$\Omega$ fixed. The model consists of ferromagnetic interaction _Jx$J_x$ in the x$x$ direction and antiferromagnetic interaction _Jy$J_y$ in the y$y$ direction, and it is found that for H/_Jy∈[0,2]$H/J_y\in [0,2]$ the system exhibits a second-order phase transition. The thermodynamic properties are obtained for the particular case of λ=_Jx/_Jy=1$\lambda =J_x/J_y=1$ (isotropic square lattice).     

Reduced Fidelity Susceptibility in One-Dimensional Transverse Field Ising Model

We study critical behaviors of the reduced fidelity susceptibility for two neighboring sites in the onedimensional transverse field Ising model. It is found that the divergent behaviors of the susceptibility take the form of square of logarithm, in contrast with the global ground-state fidelity susceptibility which is power divergence. In order to perform a scaling analysis, we take the square root of the susceptibility and determine the scaling exponent analytically and the result is further confirmed by numerical calculations.     

A Solvable Decorated Ising Lattice Model

A decorated lattice is suggested and the Ising model on it with three kinds of interactions K₁, K₂, and K₃ is studied. Using an equivalent transformation, the square decorated Ising lattice is transformed into a regular square Ising lattice with nearest-neighbor, next-nearest-neighbor, and four-spin interactions, and the critical fixed point is found at K₁=0.5769, K₂=-0.0671, and K₃=0.3428, which determines the critical temperature of the system. It is also found that this system and the regular square Ising lattice, and the eight-vertex model belong to the same universality class.     

Thermodynamic Transitions of Antiferromagnetic Ising Model on the Fractional Multi-branched Husimi Recursive Lattice

The multi-branched Husimi recursive lattice is extended to a virtual structure with fractional numbers of branches joined on one site. Although the lattice is undrawable in real space, the concept is consistent with regular Husimi lattice. The Ising spins of antiferromagnetic interaction on such a set of lattices are calculated to check the critical temperatures (T_c) and ideal glass transition temperatures (T_k) variation with fractional branch numbers. Besides the similar results of two solutions representing the stable state (crystal) and metastable state (supercooled liquid) and indicating the phase transition temperatures, the phase transitions show a well-defined shift with branch number variation. Therefore the fractional branch number as a parameter can be used as an adjusting tool in constructing a recursive lattice model to describe real systems.

On the Ising model for the simple cubic lattice

The Ising model was introduced in 1920 to describe a uniaxial system of magnetic moments, localized on a lattice, interacting via nearest-neighbour exchange interaction. It is the generic model for a continuous phase transition and arguably the most studied model in theoretical physics. Since it was solved for a two-dimensional lattice by Onsager in 1944, thereby representing one of the very few exactly solvable models in dimensions higher than one, it has served as a testing ground for new developments in analytic treatment and numerical algorithms. Only series expansions and numerical approaches, such as Monte Carlo simulations, are available in three dimensions. This review focuses on Monte Carlo simulation. We build upon a data set of unprecedented size. A great number of quantities of the model are estimated near the critical coupling. We present both a conventional analysis and an analysis in terms of a Puiseux series for the critical exponents. The former gives distinct values of the high- and low-temperature exponents; by means of the latter we can get these exponents to be equal at the cost of having true asymptotic behaviour being found only extremely close to the critical point. The consequences of this for simulations of lattice systems are discussed at length.     

Phase transitions in the Ising model with transverse field

We show the existence of a phase transition in the Ising model with transverse field for dimensionsv 2 provided the transverse term is sufficiently small. This is done by proving long-range order occurs using the reflection positivity of the Hamiltonian and localization of eigenvectors.
