Abstract

We apply the recently developed real space dynamic renormalization group method to the one-dimensional kinetic Ising model. We show how one can develop block spin methods that lead to recursion relations for the space and time dependent correlation functions that correspond to the observables for this system. We point out the importance of carefully choosing the appropriate parameters governing the behavior of individual blocks of spins and the necessity of worrying about the high temperature properties of the temperature recursion relations if one is to obtain the proper exponential decay of correlation functions at large distances away from the critical point at zero temperature. We systematically investigate the accuracy of our approximate recursion relations for various correlation functions by checking them against the known exact results. Our simple methods work surprisingly well over a wide range of temperatures, wavenumbers and frequencies.
