The use of a transfer matrix method to solve the 3D Ising model is straightforwardly generalized from the 2D case. We follow B.Kaufman's approach. No approximation is made, however the largest eigenvalue cannot be identified. This problem…

We review some aspects of the fermionic interpretation of the two-dimensional Ising model. The use is made of the notion of the integral over the anticommuting Grassmann variables. For simple and more complicated 2D Ising lattices, the…

We study the zeros in the complex plane of the partition function for the Ising model coupled to 2d quantum gravity for complex magnetic field and real temperature, and for complex temperature and real magnetic field, respectively. We…
Today, the Ising model is an archetype describing collective ordering processes. And, as such, it is widely known in physics and far beyond. Less known is the fact that the thesis defended by Ernst Ising 100 years ago (in 1924) contained…
The two-dimensional Ising model is representable as a lattice free-fermion field theory in terms of the integral over anticommuting Grassmann variables. The exact solution in a zero magnetic field then follows by evaluating Gaussian…
Starting from the known representation of the partition function of the 2- and 3-D Ising models as an integral over Grassmann variables, we perform a hopping expansion of the corresponding Pfaffian. We show that this expansion is an exact,…
There is no an exact solution to three-dimensional (3D) finite-size Ising model (referred to as the Ising model hereafter for simplicity) and even two-dimensional (2D) Ising model with non-zero external field to our knowledge. Here by using…
