I am looking at your page 6 of your lecture notes from here.
Looking at the Ising Model:
Then going to the formula for . Does the subscript i have anything to do with the index of summation i or does it stand for internal?
Also, why is the third formula:
I thought it would be:
since the external field is being subtracted in the initial equation above.
Also on the homework, I am not sure where the and come into play. Do we just use them for the self consistent equations like we did in class:
or are we supposed to substitute one of them into the initial equation of the Ising Model?
