Partition function zeros and leading order scaling correction of the 3D Ising model from multicanonical simulations

Abstract

The density of states for the three-dimensional Ising model is calculated with high-precision from multicanonical simulations. This allows us to estimate the leading partition function zeros for lattice sizes up to L=32. Combining previous statistics for smaller lattice sizes, we have evaluated the correction to scaling and the critical exponent $ν$ through out an analysis of a multi-parameter fit and of Bulirsch-Stoer (BST) extrapolation algorithm. The performance of the BST algorithm is also explored in case of the 2D Ising model, where the exact partition function zeros are known.
