Phase-ordering kinetics of two-dimensional disordered Ising models

Abstract

The phase-ordering kinetics of the ferromagnetic two-dimensional Ising model with uniform disorder is investigated by intensive Monte Carlo simulations. Taking into account finite-time corrections to scaling, simple ageing behaviour is observed in the two-time responses and correlators. The dynamical exponent z and the form of the scaling functions only depend on the ratio eps/T, where eps describes the width of the distribution of the disorder. The agreement of the predictions of local scale-invariance generalised to z<> 2 for the two-time scaling functions of response and correlations with the numerical data provides a direct test of generalised Galilei-invariance.

Dynamical response function of the disordered kinetic Ising model

Haye Hinrichsen B

Recently Baumann et al (2007 Preprint 0709.3228v1) studied the phase-ordering kinetics of the two-dimensional Ising model for T < T c with uniform spatially quenched disorder by Monte Carlo simulations. They found that the two-time response and correlation functions are in agreement with the predictions of local scale invariance generalized to . The present paper shows why this is actually not true and suggests an alternative approach which leads to a much better agreement with the numerical results.

Two-time autocorrelation function in phase-ordering kinetics from local scale invariance

Malte Henkel, A Picone, M Pleimling

The time-dependent scaling of the two-time autocorrelation function of spin systems without disorder undergoing phase-ordering kinetics is considered. Its form is shown to be determined by an extension of dynamical scaling to a local scale invariance which turns out to be a new version of conformal invariance. The predicted autocorrelator is in agreement with Monte Carlo data on the autocorrelation function of the 2D kinetic Ising model with Glauber dynamics quenched to a temperature below criticality.

Dynamical space-time symmetry for ageing far from equilibrium

Malte Henkel

The dynamical scaling of ageing ferromagnetic systems can be generalized to a local scale invariance. This yields a prediction for the causal two-time response function, which has been numerically confirmed in the Glauber-Ising model quenched into the ordered phase. For a dynamical exponent z=2, a new embedding of the Schrödinger group into the conformal group and the resulting conditions for the validity of local scale invariance are discussed.

Autocorrelation functions in phase-ordering kinetics from local scale invariance

Malte Henkel, Florian Baumann

The explicit calculation of the scaling form of the two-time autocorrelation function in phase-ordering kinetics and in those cases of non-equilibrium critical dynamics where the dynamical exponent z = 2 through the extension of dynamical scaling to local scale invariance is reviewed. Conceptually, this mainly requires an extension from the usually considered d -dimensional ageing or Schrödinger algebras to a new kind of representation of the conformal algebra in d + 2 dimensions. Explicit tests in several exactly solved models of simple magnets and through simulations in the 2D Ising and q -states Potts models ( q = 2, 3, 8) quenched to T < T c are presented and the extension to systems with non-equilibrium steady states is discussed through two exactly solvable models as well. In the context of surface growth models, possible generalizations for a dynamical exponent z = 4 and beyond are discussed.

Correlators in phase-ordering from Schrodinger-invariance

Malte Henkel, Stoimen Stoimenov

Systems undergoing phase-ordering kinetics after a quench into the ordered phase with 0 < T < T c from a fully disordered initial state and with a non-conserved order-parameter have the dynamical exponent z = 2 . The long-time behaviour of their single-time and two-time correlators, determined by the noisy initial conditions, is derived from Schrödinger-invariance. It is shown that the generic ageing scaling forms of the single-time and two-time correlators follow from the Schrödinger-covariance of the four-point response functions. The autocorrelation exponent λ is related to the passage exponent ζ p which describes the time-scale for the cross-over into the ageing regime. Both Porod’s law and the bounds d / 2 ≤ λ ≤ d are reproduced in a simple way. The dynamical finite-size scaling in fully finite systems is established. The dynamical scaling of global correlators are found and the low-temperature generalisation λ = d − 2 Θ of the Janssen-Schaub-Schmittmann scaling relation is derived.

Dynamical properties of random-field Ising model

Suman Sinha, Pradipta Kumar Mandal

Extensive Monte Carlo simulations are performed on a two-dimensional random field Ising model. The purpose of the present work is to study the disorder-induced changes in the properties of disordered spin systems. The time evolution of the domain growth, the order parameter, and the spin-spin correlation functions are studied in the nonequilibrium regime. The dynamical evolution of the order parameter and the domain growth shows a power law scaling with disorder-dependent exponents. It is observed that for weak random fields, the two-dimensional random field Ising model possesses long-range order. Except for weak disorder, exchange interaction never wins over pinning interaction to establish long-range order in the system.
