Critical exponents for the long-range Ising chain using a transfer matrix approach

The previously developed n-vicinity method allows us to calculate accurately critical values of inverse temperatures for Ising models with short-range interaction. We generalize the method to the case of long-range interactions in spin systems and obtain theoretical formulas for the inverse temperatures in terms of the spin interaction constants. The comparison of our theoretical estimates with computer simulations for the two- and three-dimensional Ising models shows that th...

The quantum phase transition of the long-range transverse-field Ising model is explored by combining a quantum Monte Carlo method with the optimal computational complexity scaling and stochastic parameter optimization that renders space and imaginary time isotropic, specifically achieved by tuning correlation lengths. Varying the decay rate of the long-range interaction, we exhaustively calculate the dynamical critical exponent and the other exponents precisely in mean-field,...

The finite lattice method of series expansion has been used to extend low-temperature series for the partition function, order parameter and susceptibility of the spin-1 Ising model on the square lattice. A new formalism is described that uses two distinct transfer matrix approaches in order to significantly reduce computer memory requirements and which permits the derivation of the series to 79th order. Subsequent analysis of the series clearly confirms that the spin-1 model...

The power of matrix product states to describe infinite-size translational-invariant critical spin chains is investigated. At criticality, the accuracy with which they describe ground state properties of a system is limited by the size $\chi$ of the matrices that form the approximation. This limitation is quantified in terms of the scaling of the half-chain entanglement entropy. In the case of the quantum Ising model, we find $S \sim {1/6}\log \chi$ with high precision. This ...

We propose a scheme to perform tensor network based finite-size scaling analysis for two-dimensional classical models. In the tensor network representation of the partition function, we use higher-order tensor renormalization group (HOTRG) method to coarse grain the weight tensor. The renormalized tensor is then used to construct the approximated transfer matrix of an infinite strip of finite width. By diagonalizing the transfer matrix we obtain the correlation length, the ma...

The correlation length plays a pivotal role in finite-size scaling and hyperscaling at continuous phase transitions. Below the upper critical dimension, where the correlation length is proportional to the system length, both finite-size scaling and hyperscaling take conventional forms. Above the upper critical dimension these forms break down and a new scaling scenario appears. Here we investigate this scaling behaviour in one-dimensional Ising ferromagnets with long-range in...

We propose a new practical method for evaluating the critical coupling constant in one-dimensional long-range interacting systems. We assume a finite-range scaling and define its exponent for the logarithm of the susceptibility. We find criticality in the form of a zeta function singularity. As an example, we present results for a long-range Ising model.

Using an infinite Matrix Product State (iMPS) technique based on the time-dependent variational principle (TDVP), we study two major types of dynamical phase transitions (DPT) in the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model (TFIM) with long-range power-law ($\propto1/r^{\alpha}$ with $r$ inter-spin distance) interactions out of equilibrium in the thermodynamic limit -- \textit{DPT-I}: based on an order parameter in a (quasi-)steady state, and \textit{DPT-II}: based on non...

Quantum many body systems with long range interactions are known to display many fascinating phenomena experimentally observable in trapped ions, Rydberg atoms and polar molecules. Among these are dynamical phase transitions which occur after an abrupt quench in spin chains with interactions decaying as $r^{-\alpha}$ and whose critical dynamics depend crucially on the power $\alpha$: for systems with $\alpha<1$ the transition is sharp while for $\alpha>1$ it fans out in a cha...

A new graphical method is developed to calculate the critical temperature of 2- and 3-dimensional Ising models as well as that of the 2-dimensional Potts models. This method is based on the transfer matrix method and using the limited lattice for the calculation. The reduced internal energy per site has been accurately calculated for different 2-D Ising and Potts models using different size-limited lattices. All calculated energies intersect at a single point when plotted ver...
