Anisotropy and universality: Critical Binder cumulant of a two-dimensional Ising model — •Boris Kastening — Institute for Materials Science, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany

We reanalyze transfer matrix and Monte Carlo results for the critical Binder cumulant U* of an anisotropic two-dimensional Ising model on a square lattice in a square geometry with periodic boundary conditions. Spins are coupled between nearest neighboring sites and between next-nearest neighboring sites along one of the lattice diagonals. We find that U* depends only on the asymptotic critical long-distance features of the anisotropy, irrespective of its realization through ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic next-nearest neighbor couplings [1]. Our results support our recent claim towards the validity of universality for finite-size scaling in the presence of a weak anisotropy [2].
