Abstract

For the long-range one-dimensional Ising spin-glass with random couplings decaying as J ( r ) ∝ r − σ , the scaling of the effective coupling defined as the difference between the free energies corresponding to periodic and antiperiodic boundary conditions J R ( N ) ≡ F (P) ( N ) − F (AP) ( N ) ∼ N θ ( σ ) defines the droplet exponent θ ( σ ). Here we study numerically the instability of the renormalization flow of the effective coupling J R ( N ) with respect to magnetic, disorder and temperature perturbations respectively, in order to extract the corresponding chaos exponents ζ H ( σ ), ζ J ( σ ) and ζ T ( σ ) as a function of σ . Our results for ζ T ( σ ) are interpreted in terms of the entropy exponent θ S ( σ ) ≃ 1/3 which governs the scaling of the entropy difference S (P) ( N ) − S (AP) ( N ) ∼ N θ S ( σ ) . We also study the instability of the ground state configuration with respect to perturbations, as measured by the spin overlap between the unperturbed and the perturbed ground states, in order to extract the corresponding chaos exponents and .

One-dimensional Ising spin-glass with power-law interaction: real-space renormalization at zero temperature

Cécile Monthus

For the one-dimensional long-ranged Ising spin-glass with random couplings decaying with the distance r as J ( r ) ∼ r − σ and distributed with the Lévy symmetric stable distribution of index 1 < μ ≤ 2 (including the usual Gaussian case μ = 2), we consider the region σ > 1/ μ where the energy is extensive. We study two real space renormalization procedures at zero temperature, namely a simple box decimation that leads to explicit calculations, and a strong disorder decimation that can be studied numerically on large sizes. The droplet exponent governing the scaling of the renormalized couplings J L ∝ L θ μ ( σ ) is found to be whenever the long-ranged couplings are relevant θ μ ( σ ) ≥ −1. For the statistics of the ground state energy over disordered samples, we obtain that the droplet exponent θ μ ( σ ) governs the leading correction to extensivity of the averaged value . The characteristic scale of the fluctuations around this average is of order , and the rescaled variable is Gaussian distributed for μ = 2, or displays the negative power-law tail in 1/(− u ) 1+ μ for u → − ∞ in the Lévy case 1 < μ < 2. Finally we apply the zero-temperature renormalization procedure to the related Dyson hierarchical spin-glass model where the same droplet exponent appears.

Interface free-energy exponent in the one-dimensional Ising spin glass with long-range interactions in both the droplet and broken replica symmetry regions

Timo Aspelmeier, Wenlong Wang, M A Moore +1 more

The one-dimensional Ising spin-glass model with power-law long-range interactions is a useful proxy model for studying spin glasses in higher space dimensions and for finding the dimension at which the spin-glass state changes from having broken replica symmetry to that of droplet behavior. To this end we have calculated the exponent that describes the difference in free energy between periodic and antiperiodic boundary conditions. Numerical work is done to support some of the assumptions made in the calculations and to determine the behavior of the interface free-energy exponent of the power law of the interactions. Our numerical results for the interface free-energy exponent are badly affected by finite-size problems.

Temperature Chaos and Bond Chaos in the Edwards-Anderson Ising Spin Glass : Domain-Wall Free-Energy Measurements

M. Sasaki, Koji Hukushima, Hajime Yoshino +1 more

Domain-wall free-energy $\delta F$, entropy $\delta S$, and the correlation function, $C_{\rm temp}$, of $\delta F$ are measured independently in the four-dimensional $\pm J$ Edwards-Anderson (EA) Ising spin glass. The stiffness exponent $\theta$, the fractal dimension of domain walls $d_{\rm s}$ and the chaos exponent $\zeta$ are extracted from the finite-size scaling analysis of $\delta F$, $\delta S$ and $C_{\rm temp}$ respectively well inside the spin-glass phase. The three exponents are confirmed to satisfy the scaling relation $\zeta=d_{\rm s}/2-\theta$ derived by the droplet theory within our numerical accuracy. We also study bond chaos induced by random variation of bonds, and find that the bond and temperature perturbations yield the universal chaos effects described by a common scaling function and the chaos exponent. These results strongly support the appropriateness of the droplet theory for the description of chaos effect in the EA Ising spin glasses.

Domain-wall free energy $\ensuremath{\delta}F$, entropy $\ensuremath{\delta}S$, and the correlation function ${C}_{\mathrm{temp}}$ of $\ensuremath{\delta}F$ are measured independently in the four-dimensional $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}J$ Edwards-Anderson (EA) Ising spin glass.

The three exponents are confirmed to satisfy the scaling relation $\ensuremath{\zeta}={d}_{s}/2\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\theta}$ derived by the droplet theory within our numerical accuracy.

New critical-point exponent and new scaling laws for short-range Ising spin glasses

Muriel Ney‐Nifle, H. J. Hilhorst

We investigate the chaotic temperature dependence of the renormalized couplings in a short-range Ising spin glass. Some of our analytic and numerical results, obtained by the Migdal-Kadanoff renormalization scheme but argued to have general validity, differ from those of the scaling and droplet theory. First, chaos is present also at and above the critical temperature. Second, between ${\mathit{d}}_{\mathit{l}}$=2.46 (the lower critical dimension) and ${\mathit{d}}_{+}$=3.4, the chaos in the critical region is characterized by a new critical exponent ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\zeta}}}_{\mathit{c}}$ that has hitherto escaped attention.

Static chaos and scaling behavior in the spin-glass phase

Félix Ritort

We discuss the problem of static chaos in spin glasses. In the case of magnetic-field perturbations, we propose a scaling theory for the spin-glass phase. Using the mean-field approach we argue that some pure states are suppressed by the magnetic field and their free-energy cost is determined by the finite-temperature fixed-point exponents. In this framework, numerical results suggest that mean-field chaos exponents are probably exact in finite dimensions. If we use the droplet approach, numerical results suggest that the zero-temperature fixed-point exponent \ensuremath{\theta} is very close to (d-3)/2. In both approaches d=3 is the lower critical dimension in agreement with recent numerical simulations.
