The exact susceptibility of the spin-S transverse Ising chain with next-nearest-neighbor interactions
Abstract
The zero-field susceptibility of the spin-S transverse Ising chain with next-nearest-neighbor interactions is obtained exactly. The susceptibility is given in an explicit form for S=1/2, and expressed in terms of the eigenvectors of the transfer matrix for general spin S. It is found that the low-temperature limit is independent of spin S, and is divergent at the transition point.
