Abstract:

Lattice radial quantization is a nonperturbative method to numerically solve critical statistical mechanics systems. As an example, we employ a lattice shaped as a cylinder with a 2D Icosahedral cross-section to discretize dilatations in the 3D dimensional critical Ising model. Using this method, we estimate the critical exponent eta of the 3D Ising model at 0.034(10).
