Short‐range ±J interaction Ising spin glass in a transverse field on a Bethe lattice: a quantum‐spherical approach
T. K. Kopeć, Klaus D. Usadel
Abstract
Abstract We consider the short‐range interaction disordered quantum Ising model with symmetric binary ±J bond distribution on the Bethe lattice (with coordination number z). The system exhibits quantum phase transition separating the spin glass and disordered phases where the quantum effect are regulated by a param‐ eter Δ describing the transverse field. By introducing a mapping of the quantum Hamiltonian of the model onto a soft‐spin action we consider it truncated version in a form of the solvable quantized spherical model. Quantum dynamics is examined via various correlation functions on the infinite tree which are evaluated in a closed form. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
