Abstract

In this paper we analytically study the recurrence equations of an Ising model with three competing interactions on a Cayley tree of order three. We exactly describe paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases of the Ising model. We obtain some rigorous results: critical temperatures and curves, number of phases, partition function. Ganikhodjaev et al. [J. Concrete and Applicable Mathematics, 9 (1), 26-34 (2011)] have numerically studied the Ising model on a second-order Cayley tree. We compare the numerical results to exact solutions of mentioned model.
