Transfer Matrices and Partition-Function Zeros for Antiferromagnetic Potts Models II. Extended Results for Square-Lattice Chromatic Polynomial
Abstract
We study the chromatic polynomials for m × n square-lattice strips, of width 9 <= m <= 13 (with periodic boundary conditions) and arbitrary length n (with free boundary conditions). We have used a transfer matrix approach that allowed us also to extract the limiting curves when n ∞. In this limit we have also obtained the isolated limiting points for these square-lattice strips and checked some conjectures related to the Beraha numbers.
