A new method is proposed for the calculation of the exact partition function for Ising-like systems, based on finite-lattice arguments. In a way, the method is originated with the finite scaling theories presented by Bhanot [J. Stat. Phys. 60, 55 (1990)] and earlier by Binder [Physica 62, 508 (1972)]. The method is tested on a 2D Ising model with nearest- and next-nearest-neighbors interactions. An asset of the method is the low computer power demand.

We consider the anisotropic Ising model on the triangular lattice with finite boundaries, and use Kaufman’s spinor method to calculate low-temperature series expansions for the partition function to high order. From these, we can obtain 108-term series expansions for the bulk, surface and corner free energies. We extrapolate these to all terms and thereby conjecture the exact results for each. Our results agree with the exactly known bulk-free energy and with Cardy and Peschel’s conformal invariance predictions for the dominant behaviour at criticality. For the isotropic case, they also agree with Vernier and Jacobsen’s conjecture for the 60 ° corners.

The ground-state phase diagrams are obtained for the spin-2 Ising model Hamiltonian with bilinear and biquadratic exchange interactions and a single-ion crystal field. The interactions are assumed to be only between nearest-neighbors. Obtained phase diagrams are presented in the (Δ,J), (K,J), (Δ/J,K/J), (Δ/|J|,K/|J|), (Δ/|K|,J/|K|), (H/J,Δ/J), (H/|J|,Δ/|J|), (H/J,K/J), and (H/|J|,K/|J|) planes where J, K, Δ, and H are the bilinear, biquadratic exchange interactions, the single-ion crystal field, and the external magnetic field, respectively. The influence of the external magnetic field on the spin configurations is investigated.

The evaluation of partition functions is a central problem in statistical physics. For lattice systems and other discrete models the partition function may be expressed as the contraction of a tensor network. Unfortunately computing such contractions is difficult, and many methods to make this tractable require periodic or otherwise structured networks. Here I present a new algorithm for contracting unstructured tensor networks. This method makes no assumptions about the structure of the network and performs well in both structured and unstructured cases so long as the correlation structure is local.
