By applying a unified real space renormalization group (URG) mapping method, we study the one-dimensional spin-1/2 Ising model with a transverse field (ITF). Unlike the other real space renormalization group methods, the URG method describes the properties of the model at both zero and finite temperatures in a unified way. The results obtained are in good agreement with that obtained by other methods. Application of the URG method to other quantum spin systems is discussed.

We introduce variants of the Ma-Dasgupta renormalization-group (RG) approach for random quantum spin chains, in which the energy-scale is reduced by decimation built on either perturbative or non-perturbative principles. In one non-perturbative version of the method, we require the exact invariance of the lowest gaps, while in a second class of perturbative Ma-Dasgupta techniques, different decimation rules are utilized. For the S = 1 random antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain, both type of methods provide the same type of disorder dependent phase diagram, which is in agreement with density-matrix renormalization-group calculations and previous studies.
