Using the bond-propagation algorithm, we study the Ising model on a rectangle of size $M \times N$ with free boundaries. For five aspect ratios $\rho=M/N=1,2,4,8,16$, the critical free energy, internal energy and specific heat are…
Defect physics is at the heart of microelectronics. By keeping track of the reference energy in total energy calculations, we explicitly show that the "potential alignment" correction vanishes, and the classic Markov-Payne correction yields…
Typically, the exact ground state energy of integrable models at finite volume can be computed using two main methods: the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz approach and the lattice discretization technique. For quantum sigma models (with…
In the chiral limit of QCD, the pion decay constant F can be extracted from lattice gauge theory by means of a coupling to isospin chemical potential. Here we compute the leading correction due to finite volume in the epsilon-expansion of…
We study the free energy of four-dimensional CFTs on deformed spheres. For generic nonsupersymmetric CFTs only the coefficient of the logarithmic divergence in the free energy is physical, which is an extremum for the round sphere. We then…
