Anisotropic simple-cubic Ising lattice: extended phenomenological renormalization-group treatment

Abstract

Using transfer-matrix extended phenomenological renormalization-group methods [M.A.Yurishchev, Nucl. Phys. B (Proc. Suppl.) 83-84, 727 (2000); hep-lat/9908019; J. Exp. Theor. Phys. 91, 332 (2000); cond-mat/0108002] the improved estimates for the critical temperature of spin-1/2 Ising model on a simple-cubic lattice with partly anisotropic coupling strengths ${\vec J}=(J',J',J)$ are obtained. Universality of both fundamental critical exponents $y_t$ and $y_h$ is confirmed. We show also that the critical finite-size scaling amplitude ratios $A_{χ^{(4)}}A_κ/A_χ^2$, $A_{κ^{''}}/A_χ$, and $A_{κ^{(4)}}/A_{χ^{(4)}}$ are independent of the lattice anisotropy parameter $Δ=J'/J$.
