Abstract

Multiplicative logarithmic corrections to scaling are frequently encountered in the critical behavior of certain statistical-mechanical systems. Here, a Lee-Yang zero approach is used to systematically analyze the exponents of such logarithms and to propose scaling relations between them. These proposed relations are then confronted with a variety of results from the literature.
