Abstract:
Analysis of the exact solution of the Ising model for a linear chain
provides the basis for a scheme of systematic calculation of the
correlation functions of arbitrary order for a system of spins
coupled by the exchange interaction at temperatures above the critical
point. The correlation functions can be calculated from the equation of
long-range coupling that is derived; it has the form $\langle S_f^\alpha A\rangle=\eta_\alpha\langle\sigma_f^\alpha A\rangle$,
where $\displaystyle\sigma_f^\alpha=\sum_{f'}A_{ff'}^\alpha S_{f'}^\alpha$ is the operator of the local field, $\eta_\alpha$ are the temperature parameters of the model, and $A_{ff'}^\alpha$ is the interaction potential, $\alpha=x,y,z$. A comparison is made with the exact solutions for the one- and two-dimensional Ising models.
