TLDR
In this article, it was shown that the value of spontaneous magnetization for the two-dimensional Ising model computed by Onsager is indeed, the appropriate derivative of the free energy with respect to the magnetic field.
Abstract
We show that the value of the spontaneous magnetization for the two-dimensional Ising model computed by Onsager is indeed, the appropriate derivative of the free energy with respect to the magnetic field. The argument is based on a simple application of the duality transformation.

Determination of an Operator Algebra for the Two-Dimensional Ising Model

TL;DR: In this article, the critical indices for the two-dimensional Ising model were derived from an assumed form of an operator algebra which describes how the product of two fluctuating variables may be reduced to a linear combination of the basic variables.
