Complex-Temperature Singularities of Ising Models

Abstract

We report new results on complex-temperature properties of Ising models. These include studies of the $s=1/2$ model on triangular, honeycomb, kagomé, $3\cdot 12^2$, and $4\cdot 8^2$ lattices. We elucidate the complex--$T$ phase diagrams of the higher-spin 2D Ising models, using calculations of partition function zeros. Finally, we investigate the 2D Ising model in an external magnetic field, mapping the complex--$T$ phase diagram and exploring various singularities therein. For the case $\beta H=i\pi /2$, we give exact results on the phase diagram and obtain susceptibility exponents ${\gamma }^{\prime }$ at various singularities from low-temperature series analyses.
