Abstract

We present a general procedure for calculating the exact partition function of an Ising model on a periodic chain in presence of magnetic field considering both open and closed boundary conditions. Using same procedure on a quasiperiodic (Fibonacci) chain we have established a recurrence relation among partition functions of different Fibonacci generations from n-th to (n+6)-th. In the large N limit we find (2τ+ 1)Fn+1=Fn+2; where τ is the golden mean and Fn stands for free energy/spin for the n-th generation. We have also studied chemical potential in both cases.
