resumo
In this work we present a thorough analysis of the phase transitions that occur in a ferromagnetic two-dimensional Ising model, with only nearest-neighbors interactions, in the framework of the Tsallis nonextensive statistics. We performed Monte Carlo simulations on square lattices with linear sizes L ranging from 32 up to 512. The statistical weight of the Metropolis algorithm was changed according to the nonextensive statistics. Discontinuities in the m(T) curve are observed for q < 0.5. However, we have verified only one peak on the energy histograms at the critical temperatures, indicating the occurrence of continuous phase transitions. For the 0.5 < q < 1.0 regime, we have found continuous phase transitions between the ordered and the disordered phases, and determined the critical exponents via finite-size scaling. We verified that the critical exponents alpha, beta, and gamma depend on the entropic index q in the range 0.5 < q < 1.0 in the form alpha(q)=(10q(2)-33q+23)/20, beta(q)=(2q-1)/8, and gamma(q)=(q(2)-q+7)/4. On the other hand, the critical exponent nu does not depend on q. This suggests a violation of the scaling relations 2 beta+gamma=d nu and alpha+2 beta+gamma=2 and a nonuniversality of the critical exponents along the ferro-paramagnetic frontier.
