Restoring isotropy in a three-dimensional lattice model: the Ising universality class

| Summary: | We study a generalized Blume-Capel model on the simple cubic lattice. In addition to the nearest-neighbor coupling there is a next-to-next-to-nearest-neighbor coupling. In order to quantify spatial anisotropy, we determine the correlation length in the high-temperature phase of the model for three different spatial directions. It turns out that the spatial anisotropy depends very little on the dilution or crystal-field parameter D of the model and is essentially determined by the ratio of the nearest-neighbor and the next-to-next-to-nearest-neighbor coupling. This ratio is tuned such that the leading contribution to the spatial anisotropy is eliminated. Next we perform a finite-size scaling (FSS) study to tune D such that also the leading correction to scaling is eliminated. Based on this FSS study, we determine the critical exponents ν=0.62998(5) and η=0.036284(40), which are in nice agreement with the more accurate results obtained by using the conformal bootstrap method. Furthermore, we provide accurate results for fixed-point values of dimensionless quantities such as the Binder cumulant and for the critical couplings. These results provide the groundwork for broader studies of universal properties of the three-dimensional Ising universality class. |
