Universal ratio of magnetization moments in two-dimensional Ising models

Abstract

The authors calculate the universal critical-point ratios of the square of the second and the fourth moment of the magnetization for ferromagnetic Ising models on the square and on the triangular lattices. Periodic boundary conditions are used in accordance with the four-fold and six-fold rotational symmetries of the respective lattices. These results, which are obtained by means of an analysis of finite-size data computed with a transfer-matrix technique, have an accuracy of the order of one millionth. This analysis is also applied to rectangular systems with arbitrary aspect ratios.
