Low temperature series expansions for the square lattice Ising model with spin S > 1

We derive low-temperature series (in the variable $u = \exp[-βJ/S^2]$) for the spontaneous magnetisation, susceptibility and specific heat of the spin-$S$ Ising model on the square lattice for $S=\frac32$, 2, $\frac52$, and 3. We determine the location of the physical critical point and non-physical singularities. The number of non-physical singularities closer to the origin than the physical critical point grows quite rapidly with $S$. The critical exponents at the singularities which are closest to the origin and for which we have reasonably accurate estimates are independent of $S$. Due to the many non-physical singularities, the estimates for the physical critical point and exponents are poor for higher values of $S$, though consistent with universality.

Series studies of the Potts model. III: The 3-state model on the simple cubic lattice

The finite lattice method of series expansion has been used to extend low-temperature series for the partition function, order parameter and susceptibility of the $3$-state Potts model on the simple cubic lattice to order $z^{43}$ and the high-temperature expansion of the partition function to order $v^{21}$. We use the numerical data to show that the transition is first-order, and estimate the latent heat, the discontinuity in the magnetisation, and a number of other critical parameters.

Series studies of the Potts model. II: Bulk series for the square lattice

The finite lattice method of series expansion has been used to extend low-temperature series for the partition function, order parameter and susceptibility of the $q$-state Potts model to order $z^{56}$ (i.e. $u^{28}$), $z^{47}$, $z^{43}$, $z^{39}$, $z^{39}$, $z^{39}$, $z^{35}$, $z^{31}$ and $z^{31}$ for $q = 2$, 3, 4, \dots 9 and 10 respectively. These series are used to test techniques designed to distinguish first-order transitions from continuous transitions. New numerical values are also obtained for the $q$-state Potts model with $q>4$.

Series studies of the Potts model. I: The simple cubic Ising model

The finite lattice method of series expansion is generalised to the $q$-state Potts model on the simple cubic lattice. It is found that the computational effort grows exponentially with the square of the number of series terms obtained, unlike two-dimensional lattices where the computational requirements grow exponentially with the number of terms. For the Ising ($q=2$) case we have extended low-temperature series for the partition functions, magnetisation and zero-field susceptibility to $u^{26}$ from $u^{20}$. The high-temperature series for the zero-field partition function is extended from $v^{18}$ to $v^{22}$. Subsequent analysis gives critical exponents in agreement with those from field theory.

Algebraic Techniques for Enumerating Self-Avoiding Walks on the Square Lattice

We describe a new algebraic technique for enumerating self-avoiding walks on the rectangular lattice. The computational complexity of enumerating walks of $N$ steps is of order $3^{N/4}$ times a polynomial in $N$, and so the approach is greatly superior to direct counting techniques. We have enumerated walks of up to 39 steps. As a consequence, we are able to accurately estimate the critical point, critical exponent, and critical amplitude.
