Scaling Regimes and the Singularity of Specific Heat in the 3D Ising Model
AbstractThe singularity of specific heat CV of the three-dimensional Ising model is studied based on Monte Carlo data for lattice sizes L≤1536. Fits of two data sets, one corresponding to certain value of the Binder cumulant and the other — to the maximum of CV, provide consistent values of C0 in the ansatz CV(L)=C0+ALα/ν at large L, if α/ν=0.196(6). However, a direct estimation from our data suggests that α/ν, most probably, has a smaller value (e.g., α/ν= 0.113(30)). Thus, the conventional power-law scaling ansatz can be questioned because of this inconsistency. We have found that the data are well described by certain logarithmic ansatz.
Monte Carlo estimation of transverse and longitudinal correlation functions in the model
Abstract Monte Carlo simulations of the three-dimensional O ( 4 ) model in the ordered phase are performed to study the Goldstone mode effects. Our data show a distinct scaling region, where the Fourier-transformed transverse correlation function behaves as ∝ k − λ ⊥ with λ ⊥ 2 ( λ ≃ 1.95 ), in disagreement with the standard theoretical prediction λ ⊥ = 2 .
