Eliminating leading corrections to scaling in the 3-dimensional O(N)-symmetric phi^4 model: N=3 and 4
Abstract
Description
We study corrections to scaling in the O(3)- and O(4)-symmetric phi^4 model on the three-dimensional simple cubic lattice with nearest neighbour interactions. For this purpose, we use Monte Carlo simulations in connection with a finite size scaling method. We find that there exists a finite value of the coupling lambda^*, for both values of N, where leading corrections to scaling vanish. As a first application, we compute the critical exponents nu=0.710(2) and eta=0.0380(10) for N=3 and nu=0.749(2) and eta=0.0365(10) for N=4.
