Abstract

We propose a modification of the Nightingale renormalization group for lattice spin and gauge models by combining it with the cluster decimation approximation. Essential ingredients of our approach are: 1) exact calculation of the partition and correlation function on a finite lattice strip; 2) preservation of the mass gap or the second moment correlation length, computed in the infinite strip length limit, on each decimation step. The method is applied for studying general two and three dimensional Z(N) models. A perfect agreement with exact results (whenever available) is found. An extension of the method to models with a continuous symmetry is briefly discussed.
