Abstract

A method of obtaining the spontaneous magnetisation from finite-lattice matrix elements of the magnetic field operator, due to Yang (1952) and Uzelac (1980), is discussed. The method is demonstrated for the case of the Ising model in (1+1) dimensions, and is shown to provide smooth and rapidly convergent finite-lattice sequences. Applied to the case of the three-state Potts (Z3) model in (1+1) dimensions, the method yields an estimate beta =0.111 09+or-0.000 05 for the critical exponent. This confirms Alexander's conjecture of universality with the hard hexagonal model.
