Zeros of the partition function for higher-spin 2D Ising models

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We present calculations of the complex-temperature zeros of the partition functions for 2D Ising models on the square lattice with spin s=1, 3/2, and 2. These give insight into complex-temperature phase diagrams of these models in the thermodynamic limit. Support is adduced for a conjecture that all divergences of the magnetisation occur at endpoints of arcs of zeros protruding into the FM phase. We conjecture that there are 4[s2]−2 such arcs for sge1, where [x] denotes the integral part of x.
