Domain-wall scaling coordinate of an Ising chain

ID: domain-wall-scaling-coordinate-of-an-ising-chain

A reversed bond costs , so its Boltzmann factor is a natural thermal coordinate near the zero-temperature chain fixed point. Exact length-two decimation gives , and the One-dimensional Ising correlation function gives . This is a length exponent one with respect to . The correlation length instead diverges exponentially in inverse physical temperature; claiming a conventional finite power would confuse scaling coordinates. Choosing gives multiplier and power two in that alternative coordinate, the same physical length.
