Critical Percolation Probabilities by Series Methods

TL;DR: In this paper, series estimates of the critical percolation probabilities for the "bond problem" and the "site problem" are presented for two-and three-dimensional lattices.
Journal ArticleDOI

Excluded-Volume Problem and the Ising Model of Ferromagnetism

TL;DR: The relationship between the excluded-volume problem for a discrete random walk on a lattice and the corresponding Ising model of ferromagnetism is investigated in this paper, where a lower bound of the number of self-avoiding walks on a given lattice is derived.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Change of Spin on the Critical Properties of the Ising and Heisenberg Models

TL;DR: In this article, high-temperature series expansions of the partition functions for the Ising and Heisenberg models are analyzed for various values of the spin $s$ for fcc lattice for which successive coefficients are sufficiently regular for estimates of critical behavior to be made with confidence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antiferromagnetic susceptibility of the plane square and honeycomb ising lattices

TL;DR: In this article, the antiferromagnetic susceptibilities of the plane square and honeycomb Ising lattices are investigated on the basis of exact series expansions, and expressions for the susceptibility with an accuracy of about 0.5% in the critical region and better than 0.1% for temperatures differing from T c by more than 7%.
