Application of the Monte Carlo coherent-anomaly method to two-dimensional lattice-gas systems with further-neighbor interactions

A Monte Carlo version of the coherent-anomaly method has been used to determine critical properties of a two-dimensional Ising ferromagnet with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor interactions and of a series of two-dimensional lattice-gas systems of particles interacting via 6-12 Lennard-Jones potential. It has demonstrated that the method leads to quite accurate determination of critical temperature but is less successful when used to determine the values of critical exponents \ensuremath{\gamma} and \ensuremath{\nu}.
