Abstract
The square-lattice Ising model with nearest-neighbor (\(J_1\)) and next-nearest-neighbor (\(J_2\)) interactions is exactly unsolvable. The square-lattice \(J_1-J_2\) Ising model is frustrated for \(J_2<0\). For \(R=J_2/J_1=\pm 1/2\), the square-lattice \(J_1-J_2\) Ising model for \(J_2<0\) is the most frustrated, and its ground states are infinitely degenerate. The exact integer values for the density of states of the \(J_1-J_2\) Ising model for \(R=\pm 1/2\) are evaluated on \(L\times 2L\) square lattices with free boundary conditions in the L-direction and periodic boundary conditions in the 2L-direction up to \(L=12\) using an exact enumeration method. The total number of states is \(2^{288}\approx 5\times 10^{86}\) for \(L=12\), and counting all \(2^{288}\) states requires enormous computational work. The thermal scaling exponent \(y_t=1(=1/\nu )\) (where \(\nu \) is the correlation-length critical exponent) of the square-lattice \(J_1-J_2\) Ising model is obtained for \(J_2>0\) and \(R=\pm 1/2\), in agreement with the Ising universality class. The shift exponent \(\lambda =1.00\) is obtained for \(J_2>0\) and \(R=\pm 1/2\), equaling the thermal scaling exponent \(y_t\). On the other hand, the thermal scaling exponent \(y_t=2.0\) of the square-lattice \(J_1-J_2\) Ising model is obtained for \(J_2<0\) and \(R=\pm 1/2\), suggesting a first-order phase transition. The shift exponent \(\lambda =1.1\) is obtained for \(J_2<0\) and \(R=\pm 1/2\) and is different from the thermal scaling exponent \(y_t\).
