In previous work with Scullard, we defined a graph polynomial P_B(q,T) that gives access to the critical temperature T_c of the q-state Potts model on a general two-dimensional lattice L. It depends on a basis B, containing n x m unit cells of L, and the relevant root of P_B(q,T) was observed to converge quickly to T_c in the limit n,m to infinity. Moreover, in exactly solvable cases there is no finite-size dependence at all. We reformulate this method as an eigenvalue problem within the periodic Temperley-Lieb algebra. This corresponds to taking m to infinity first, so the bases B are semi-infinite cylinders of circumference n. The limit implies faster convergence in n, while maintaining the n-independence in exactly solvable cases. In this setup, T_c(n) is determined by equating the largest eigenvalues of two topologically distinct sectors of the transfer matrix. Crucially, these two sectors determine the same critical exponent in the continuum limit, and the observed fast convergence is thus corroborated by results of conformal field theory. We obtain similar results for the dense and dilute phases of the O(N) loop model, using now a transfer matrix within the dilute periodic Temperley-Lieb algebra. The eigenvalue formulation allows us to double the size n for which T_c(n) can be obtained, using the same computational effort. We study in details three significant cases: (i) bond percolation on the kagome lattice, up to n = 14; (ii) site percolation on the square lattice, to n = 21; and (iii) self-avoiding polygons on the square lattice, to n = 19. Convergence properties of T_c(n) and extrapolation schemes are studied in details for the first two cases. This leads to rather accurate values for the percolation thresholds: p_c = 0.524404999167439(4) for bond percolation on the kagome lattice, and p_c = 0.59274605079210(2) for site percolation on the square lattice.
The hamiltonian of the $N$-state superintegrable chiral Potts (SICP) model is written in terms of a coupled algebra defined by $N-1$ types of Temperley-Lieb generators. This generalises a previous result for $N=3$ obtained by J. F. Fjelstad and T. Mr
The critical curves of the q-state Potts model can be determined exactly for regular two-dimensional lattices G that are of the three-terminal type. Jacobsen and Scullard have defined a graph polynomial P_B(q,v) that gives access to the critical mani
We consider the Potts model and the related bond, site, and mixed site-bond percolation problems on triangular-type and kagome-type lattices, and derive closed-form expressions for the critical frontier. For triangular-type lattices the critical fron
Any two-dimensional infinite regular lattice G can be produced by tiling the plane with a finite subgraph B of G; we call B a basis of G. We introduce a two-parameter graph polynomial P_B(q,v) that depends on B and its embedding in G. The algebraic c
The two-dimensional Potts model can be studied either in terms of the original Q-component spins, or in the geometrical reformulation via Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) clusters. While the FK representation makes sense for arbitrary real values of Q by const
