Determinant of the Potts model transfer matrix and the critical point
Abstract
By using a decomposition of the transfer matrix of the q-state Potts Model on a three dimensional m × n × n simple cubic lattice its determinant is calculated exactly. By using the calculated determinants a formula is conjectured which approximates the critical temperature for a d-dimensional hypercubic lattice.
