Universal amplitude ratios for scaling corrections on Ising strips with fixed boundary conditions

Abstract

We study the (analytic) finite-size corrections in the Ising model on the strip with fixed (++ -) boundary conditions. We find that subdominant finite-size corrections to scaling should be to the form ak/N2k1a_k/N^{2k-1} for the free energy fNf_N and bk(n)/N2k1b_k^{(n)}/N^{2k-1} for inverse correlation length ξn1\xi_n^{-1}, with integer value of kk. We investigate the set {ak,bk(n)}\{a_k, b_k^{(n)}\} by exact evaluation and their changes upon varying anisotropy of coupling. We find that the amplitude ratios bk(n)/akb_k^{(n)}/a_k remain constant upon varying coupling anisotropy. Such universal behavior are correctly reproduced by the conformal perturbative approach.
