The critical behavior of 3D Ising spin glass models: universality and scaling corrections

Abstract

We perform high-statistics Monte Carlo simulations of three three-dimensional Ising spin glass models: the ± J Ising model for two values of the disorder parameter p , p = 1/2 and 0.7, and the bond-diluted ± J model for bond-occupation probability p b = 0.45. A finite-size scaling analysis of the quartic cumulants at the critical point shows conclusively that these models belong to the same universality class and allows us to estimate the scaling-correction exponent ω related to the leading irrelevant operator, ω = 1.0(1). We also determine the critical exponents ν and η. Taking into account the scaling corrections, we obtain ν = 2.53(8) and η = −0.384(9).

Critical behavior of three-dimensional Ising spin glass models

Martin Hasenbusch B, Andrea Pelissetto C, Ettore Vicari

We perform high-statistics Monte Carlo simulations of three-dimensional Ising spin glass models on cubic lattices of size $L$: the $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}J$ (Edwards-Anderson) Ising model for two values of the disorder parameter $p$, $p=0.5$ and $p=0.7$ (up to $L=28$ and $L=20$, respectively), and the bond-diluted bimodal model for bond-occupation probability ${p}_{b}=0.45$ (up to $L=16$). The finite-size behavior of the quartic cumulants at the critical point allows us to check very accurately that these models belong to the same universality class. Moreover, it allows us to estimate the scaling-correction exponent $\ensuremath{\omega}$ related to the leading irrelevant operator: $\ensuremath{\omega}=1.0(1)$. Shorter Monte Carlo simulations of the bond-diluted bimodal models at ${p}_{b}=0.7$ and ${p}_{b}=0.35$ (up to $L=10$) and of the Ising spin glass model with Gaussian bond distribution (up to $L=8$) also support the existence of a unique Ising spin glass universality class. A careful finite-size analysis of the Monte Carlo data which takes into account the analytic and the nonanalytic corrections to scaling allows us to obtain precise and reliable estimates of the critical exponents. We obtain $\ensuremath{\nu}=2.45(15)$ and $\ensuremath{\eta}=\ensuremath{-}0.375(10)$.

Critical behavior of the three-dimensional bond-diluted Ising spin glass: Finite-size scaling functions and universality

Thomas Jörg

We study the three-dimensional (3D) bond-diluted Edwards-Anderson (EA) model with binary interactions at a bond occupation of 45% by Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. Using an efficient cluster MC algorithm we are able to determine the universal finite-size scaling (FSS) functions and the critical exponents with high statistical accuracy. We observe small corrections to scaling for the measured observables. The critical quantities and the FSS functions indicate clearly that the bond-diluted model for dilutions above the critical dilution ${p}^{*}$, at which a spin glass (SG) phase appears, lies in the same universality class as the 3D undiluted EA model with binary interactions. A comparison with the FSS functions of the 3D site-diluted EA model with Gaussian interactions at a site occupation of 62.5% gives very strong evidence for the universality of the SG transition in the 3D EA model.

Critical parameters of the three-dimensional Ising spin glass

Marco Baity‐Jesi, R. A. Baños, Andrés De la Cruz +21 more

We report a high-precision finite-size scaling study of the critical behavior of the three-dimensional Ising Edwards-Anderson model (the Ising spin glass). We have thermalized lattices up to $L=40$ using the Janus dedicated computer. Our analysis takes into account leading-order corrections to scaling. We obtain ${T}_{\mathrm{c}}=1.1019(29)$ for the critical temperature, $\ensuremath{\nu}=2.562(42)$ for the thermal exponent, $\ensuremath{\eta}=\ensuremath{-}0.3900(36)$ for the anomalous dimension, and $\ensuremath{\omega}=1.12(10)$ for the exponent of the leading corrections to scaling. Standard (hyper)scaling relations yield $\ensuremath{\alpha}=\ensuremath{-}5.69(13)$, $\ensuremath{\beta}=0.782(10)$, and $\ensuremath{\gamma}=6.13(11)$. We also compute several universal quantities at ${T}_{\mathrm{c}}$.

Zeros of Partition Function and Critical Exponents of the 3D Diluted Ising Model

Andrey N. Vakilov

We used a Monte Carlo simulation of the structurally disordered three dimensional Ising model. For the systems with spin concentrations p = 0.95 ,0.8, 0.6 and 0.5 we calculated the correlation-length critical exponent ν by finite-size scaling. Extrapolations to the thermodynamic limit yield ν(0.95) = 0.705(5) ,ν(0.8) = 0.711(6),ν(0.6) = 0.736(6) and ν(0.5) = 0.744(6). These results are compatible with some previous estimates from a variety of sources. The analysis of the results demonstrates the nonuniversality of the critical behavior in the disordered Ising model.

Critical behavior of a cubic-lattice 3D Ising model for systems with quenched disorder

Akai Kurbanovich Murtazaev, Ibragimkhan K. Kamilov, Albert Babaevich Babaev

A Monte Carlo method is applied to simulate the static critical behavior of a cubic-lattice 3D Ising model for systems with quenched disorder. Numerical results are presented for the spin concentrations of p = 1.0, 0.95, 0.9, 0.8, 0.6 on L × L × L lattices with L = 20–60 under periodic boundary conditions. The critical temperature is determined by the Binder cumulant method. A finite-size scaling technique is used to calculate the static critical exponents α, β, γ, and ν (for specific heat, susceptibility, magnetization, and correlation length, respectively) in the range of p under study. Universality classes of critical behavior are discussed for three-dimensional diluted systems.

The universality class of 3D site-diluted and bond-diluted Ising systems

Martin Hasenbusch B, Francesco Parisen Toldin, Andrea Pelissetto C +1 more

We present a finite-size scaling analysis of high-statistics Monte Carlo simulations of the three-dimensional randomly site-diluted and bond-diluted Ising model. The critical behaviour of these systems is affected by slowly decaying scaling corrections which make the accurate determination of their universal asymptotic behaviour quite hard, requiring an effective control of the scaling corrections. For this purpose we exploit improved Hamiltonians, for which the leading scaling corrections are suppressed for any thermodynamic quantity, and improved observables, for which the leading scaling corrections are suppressed for any model belonging to the same universality class. The results of the finite-size scaling analysis provide strong numerical evidence that phase transitions in three-dimensional randomly site-diluted and bond-diluted Ising models belong to the same randomly dilute Ising universality class. We obtain accurate estimates of the critical exponents, ν = 0.683(2), η = 0.036(1), α = −0.049(6), γ = 1.341(4), β = 0.354(1), δ = 4.792(6), and of the leading and next-to-leading correction-to-scaling exponents, ω = 0.33(3) and ω 2 = 0.82(8).
