Beyond series expansions: mathematical structures for the susceptibility of the square lattice Ising model

We first study the properties of the Fuchsian ordinary differential equations for the three and four-particle contributions $\chi^{(3)}$ and $\chi^{(4)}$ of the square lattice Ising model susceptibility. An analysis of some mathematical properties of these Fuchsian differential equations is sketched. For instance, we study the factorization properties of the corresponding linear differential operators, and consider the singularities of the three and four-particle contributions $\chi^{(3)}$ and $\chi^{(4)}$, versus the singularities of the associated Fuchsian ordinary differential equations, which actually exhibit new ``Landau-like'' singularities. We sketch the analysis of the corresponding differential Galois groups. In particular we provide a simple, but efficient, method to calculate the so-called ``connection matrices'' (between two neighboring singularities) and deduce the singular behaviors of $\chi^{(3)}$ and $\chi^{(4)}$. We provide a set of comments and speculations on the Fuchsian ordinary differential equations associated with the $n$-particle contributions $\chi^{(n)}$ and address the problem of the apparent discrepancy between such a holonomic approach and some scaling results deduced from a Painlev\'e oriented approach.Comment: 21 pages Proceedings of the Counting Complexity conferenc

Square lattice Ising model susceptibility: Series expansion method and differential equation for χ(3)\chi^{(3)}

In a previous paper (J. Phys. A {\bf 37} (2004) 9651-9668) we have given the Fuchsian linear differential equation satisfied by $\chi^{(3)}$, the ``three-particle'' contribution to the susceptibility of the isotropic square lattice Ising model. This paper gives the details of the calculations (with some useful tricks and tools) allowing one to obtain long series in polynomial time. The method is based on series expansion in the variables that appear in the $(n-1)$-dimensional integrals representing the $n$-particle contribution to the isotropic square lattice Ising model susceptibility $\chi$. The integration rules are straightforward due to remarkable formulas we derived for these variables. We obtain without any numerical approximation $\chi^{(3)}$ as a fully integrated series in the variable $w=s/2/(1+s^{2})$, where $s =sh (2K)$, with $K=J/kT$ the conventional Ising model coupling constant. We also give some perspectives and comments on these results.Comment: 28 pages, no figur

Experimental mathematics on the magnetic susceptibility of the square lattice Ising model

We calculate very long low- and high-temperature series for the susceptibility $\chi$ of the square lattice Ising model as well as very long series for the five-particle contribution $\chi^{(5)}$ and six-particle contribution $\chi^{(6)}$. These calculations have been made possible by the use of highly optimized polynomial time modular algorithms and a total of more than 150000 CPU hours on computer clusters. For $\chi^{(5)}$ 10000 terms of the series are calculated {\it modulo} a single prime, and have been used to find the linear ODE satisfied by $\chi^{(5)}$ {\it modulo} a prime. A diff-Pad\'e analysis of 2000 terms series for $\chi^{(5)}$ and $\chi^{(6)}$ confirms to a very high degree of confidence previous conjectures about the location and strength of the singularities of the $n$-particle components of the susceptibility, up to a small set of ``additional'' singularities. We find the presence of singularities at $w=1/2$ for the linear ODE of $\chi^{(5)}$, and $w^2= 1/8$ for the ODE of $\chi^{(6)}$, which are {\it not} singularities of the ``physical'' $\chi^{(5)}$ and $\chi^{(6)},$ that is to say the series-solutions of the ODE's which are analytic at $w =0$. Furthermore, analysis of the long series for $\chi^{(5)}$ (and $\chi^{(6)}$) combined with the corresponding long series for the full susceptibility $\chi$ yields previously conjectured singularities in some $\chi^{(n)}$, $n \ge 7$. We also present a mechanism of resummation of the logarithmic singularities of the $\chi^{(n)}$ leading to the known power-law critical behaviour occurring in the full $\chi$, and perform a power spectrum analysis giving strong arguments in favor of the existence of a natural boundary for the full susceptibility $\chi$.Comment: 54 pages, 2 figure

High order Fuchsian equations for the square lattice Ising model: χ(6)\chi^{(6)}

This paper deals with $\tilde{\chi}^{(6)}$, the six-particle contribution to the magnetic susceptibility of the square lattice Ising model. We have generated, modulo a prime, series coefficients for $\tilde{\chi}^{(6)}$. The length of the series is sufficient to produce the corresponding Fuchsian linear differential equation (modulo a prime). We obtain the Fuchsian linear differential equation that annihilates the "depleted" series $\Phi^{(6)}=\tilde{\chi}^{(6)} - {2 \over 3} \tilde{\chi}^{(4)} + {2 \over 45} \tilde{\chi}^{(2)}$. The factorization of the corresponding differential operator is performed using a method of factorization modulo a prime introduced in a previous paper. The "depleted" differential operator is shown to have a structure similar to the corresponding operator for $\tilde{\chi}^{(5)}$. It splits into factors of smaller orders, with the left-most factor of order six being equivalent to the symmetric fifth power of the linear differential operator corresponding to the elliptic integral $E$. The right-most factor has a direct sum structure, and using series calculated modulo several primes, all the factors in the direct sum have been reconstructed in exact arithmetics.Comment: 23 page

Canonical structure and symmetries of the Schlesinger equations

The Schlesinger equations $S_{(n,m)}$ describe monodromy preserving deformations of order $m$ Fuchsian systems with $n+1$ poles. They can be considered as a family of commuting time-dependent Hamiltonian systems on the direct product of $n$ copies of $m\times m$ matrix algebras equipped with the standard linear Poisson bracket. In this paper we present a new canonical Hamiltonian formulation of the general Schlesinger equations $S_{(n,m)}$ for all $n$, $m$ and we compute the action of the symmetries of the Schlesinger equations in these coordinates.Comment: 92 pages, no figures.

Redundant Picard-Fuchs system for Abelian integrals

We derive an explicit system of Picard-Fuchs differential equations satisfied by Abelian integrals of monomial forms and majorize its coefficients. A peculiar feature of this construction is that the system admitting such explicit majorants, appears only in dimension approximately two times greater than the standard Picard-Fuchs system. The result is used to obtain a partial solution to the tangential Hilbert 16th problem. We establish upper bounds for the number of zeros of arbitrary Abelian integrals on a positive distance from the critical locus. Under the additional assumption that the critical values of the Hamiltonian are distant from each other (after a proper normalization), we were able to majorize the number of all (real and complex) zeros. In the second part of the paper an equivariant formulation of the above problem is discussed and relationships between spread of critical values and non-homogeneity of uni- and bivariate complex polynomials are studied.Comment: 31 page, LaTeX2e (amsart
