A simple method to obtain a canonical partition function for one dimensional lattice gas model is presented. The simplification is based upon rewriting a sum over all possible configurations to a sum over numbers of clusters in the system.

We consider a 1D lattice gas model in which the atoms interact via an infinite number of cluster interactions within contiguous atomic chains plus the next nearest neighbor pairwise interaction. All interactions are of arbitrary strength. An analytical expression for the size distribution of atomic chain lengths is obtained in the framework of the canonical ensemble formalism. Application of the exact solution to the problems of self-assembly and self-organization is briefly ...

We derive a closed-form combinatorial expression for the number of states in canonical systems with discrete energy levels. The expression results from the exact low-temperature power series expansion of the partition function. The approach provides interesting insights into basis of statistical mechanics. In particular, it is shown that in some cases the logarithm of the partition function may be considered the generating function for the number of internal states of energy ...

We demonstrate, with a concrete example, how the combinatorial approach to a general system of particles, which was introduced in detail in the earlier paper arXiv:1205.4986, works and where it enters to provide a genuine extension of results obtainable by more traditional methods of statistical mechanics. To this end, an effort is made to study cluster properties of the one-dimensional lattice gas with nearest neighbor interactions. Three cases: the infinite temperature limi...

In this note I revisit the calculation of partition function of simple one dimensional systems solvable by Bethe Ansatz. Particularly I show that by the precise definition and treatment of the partition function the nontrivial normalization factor proposed in a recent work to give the correct O(1) corrections to the free energy can be derived in a straightforward manner.

One-dimensional repulsive delta-function bose system is studied. By only using the Bethe ansatz equation, n-particle partition functions are exactly calculated. From this expression for the n-particle partition function, the n-particle cluster integral is derived. The results completely agree with those of the thermal Bethe ansatz (TBA). This directly proves the validity of the TBA. The theory of partitions and graphs is used to simplify the discussion.

The N-particle partition function of a one-dimensional $\delta$-function bose gas is calculated explicitly using only the periodic boundary condition (the Bethe ansatz equation). The N-particles cluster integrals are shown to be the same as those by the thermal Bethe ansatz method.

This article discusses partition function of monatomic ideal gas which is given in Statistical Physisc at Physics Department, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Institut Teknologi Bandung, Indonesia. Students in general are not familiar with partition function. This unfamiliarness was detected at a problem of partition function which was re-given in an examination in other dimensions that had been previously given in the lecture. Based on this observation, the need ...

We propose a new and general method for deriving exact density functionals in one dimension for lattice gases with finite-range pairwise interactions. Corresponding continuum functionals are derived by applying a proper limiting procedure. The method is based on a generalised Markov property, which allows us to set up a rather transparent scheme that covers all previously known exact functionals for one-dimensional lattice gas or fluid systems. Implications for a systematic c...

In this paper, we provide the exact expression for the coefficients in the low-temperature series expansion of the partition function of the two-dimensional Ising model on the infinite square lattice. This is equivalent to exact determination of the number of spin configurations at a given energy. With these coefficients, we show that the ferromagnetic--to--paramagnetic phase transition in the square lattice Ising model can be explained through equivalence between the model a...

This paper discusses a classical simulation to compute the partition function (or free energy) of generic one-dimensional quantum many-body systems. Many numerical methods have previously been developed to approximately solve one-dimensional quantum systems. However, there exists no exact proof that arbitrary one-dimensional quantum Gibbs states can be efficiently solved by a classical computer. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to prove this with the clustering properties ...
