AbstractMonte Carlo results for the moments of the magnetization distribution of the nearest-neighbor Ising ferromagnet in a L^d geometry, where L (4 leq L leq 22) is the linear dimension of a hypercubic lattice with periodic boundary conditions in d=5 dimensions, are analyzed in the critical region and compared to a recent theory of Chen and Dohm (CD) [X.S. Chen and V. Dohm, Int. J. Mod. Phys. C (1998)]. We show that this finite-size scaling theory (formulated in terms of two scaling variables) can account for the longstanding discrepancies between Monte Carlo results and the so-called ``lowest-mode’’ theory, which uses a single scaling variable tL^{d/2} where t=T/T_c-1 is the temperature distance from the critical temperature, only to a very limited extent. While the CD theory gives a somewhat improved description of corrections to the ``lowest-mode’’ results (to which the CD theory can easily be reduced in the limit t o 0, L o infty, tL^{d/2} fixed) for the fourth-order cumulant, discrepancies are found for the susceptibility (L^d ). Reasons for these problems are briefly discussed.
