Exact partition functions of the Ising model on MxN planar lattices with   periodic-aperiodic boundary conditions
  The Grassmann path integral approach is used to calculate exact partition functions of the Ising model on MxN square (sq), plane triangular (pt) and honeycomb (hc) lattices with periodic-periodic (pp), periodic-antiperiodic (pa), antiperiodic-periodic (ap) and antiperiodic-antiperiodic (aa) boundary conditions. The partition functions are used to calculate and plot the specific heat, $C/k_B$, as a function of the temperature, $\theta =k_BT/J$. We find that for the NxN sq lattice, $C/k_B$ for pa and ap boundary conditions are different from those for aa boundary conditions, but for the NxN pt and hc lattices, $C/k_B$ for ap, pa, and aa boundary conditions have the same values. Our exact partition functions might also be useful for understanding the effects of lattice structures and boundary conditions on critical finite-size corrections of the Ising model.
