Description

The spin-S Hamiltonian H=-JΣsub()Qsub(S)(Ssub(i))Qsub(S)(Ssub(j))-lambdaΣsub(i)Qsub(S)(Ssub(i)) where Qsub(S)(y) is a polynomial in y of degree 2S whose eigenvalues are +-1 is considered and it is rigorously shown that except for a multiplicative constant, the partition functions for all half-integer values of S are identical.
