Abstract

General spin correlation functions for the Ising model are reviewed and used to study the Ising model in a field. The quantum double sine-Gordon equation results. At the critical temperature this equation leads to six bound states within the magnetic gap, one at threshold, for a total of seven. It is conjectured that the number of bound states is a universal property of critical points.

  9. The sine-Gordon equation with ß2=4π is plagued with divergence problems in the continuum limit. The discussion here strictly refers to the interacting fermi problem on a lattice which does not, but does have the same infrared behavior as the sine-Gordon equation.
