Abstract

A soluble, but nontrivial, model of a dilute Ising ferromagnet is studied, with infinite-range interactions but finite average connectivity c. The density of (Yang-Lee) zeros of the partition function in the complex z=exp(-2H) plane (where H is the external magnetic field in units of the temperature) is calculated explicitly in the high-temperature phase for large but finite c and small \ensuremath{\Vert}H\ensuremath{\Vert}. The density of zeros on the unit circle H=i\ensuremath{\theta} has the form \ensuremath{\rho}(\ensuremath{\theta})\ensuremath{\sim}exp{-[cf(K)/\ensuremath{\Vert}\ensuremath{\theta}\ensuremath{\Vert}]ln/B (1/\ensuremath{\Vert}\ensuremath{\theta}\ensuremath{\Vert})} for \ensuremath{\Vert}\ensuremath{\theta}\ensuremath{\Vert}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0. The function f(K) (K=J/T) vanishes at the critical coupling ${K}_{C}$(c). Heuristic arguments are given for the form of \ensuremath{\rho}(\ensuremath{\theta}) expected for systems with short-range interactions.
