Series Analysis of Tricritical Behavior: Mean-Field Model and Slicewise Pade Approximants
arXiv:cond-mat/9503062 · doi:10.1088/0305-4470/28/9/008
Abstract
A mean-field model is proposed as a test case for tricritical series analyses methods. Derivation of the 50th order series for the magnetization is reported. As the first application this series is analyzed by the traditional slicewise Pade approximant method popular in earlier studies of tricriticality.
