Applying the master equation to an Ising model, equations of motion are obtained for the average of a single spin and for the average of a pair of spins. These equations relax to equilibrium values that predict a self-consistency relationship among the internal field, temperature, and exchange energy. The critical temperature obtained is that of the Bethe approximation, and is extended to include a static external field in the magnetization direction. With this, the relaxation of an Ising model near the Curie temperature has been investigated in a self-consistent manner. The results are similar to those of Suzuki and Kubo, but in the Bethe approximation instead of the Bragg-Williams approximation, and hence predict the relaxation of the correlation as well. In particular we studied a nearly Ising spin system that is a system with relatively small isotropic transverse coupling. An oscillating, linear, and external magnetic field applied transverse to the strongly coupled direction of the spins leads to lowering of the critical temperature.Applying the master equation to an Ising model, equations of motion are obtained for the average of a single spin and for the average of a pair of spins.

Quantitative approach for the Dicke-Ising chain with an effective self-consistent matter Hamiltonian

J. Leibig, M. Hörmann, A. Langheld +2 more

In the thermodynamic limit, the Dicke-Ising chain maps exactly onto an effective self-consistent matter Hamiltonian with the photon field acting solely as a self-consistent effective field. As a consequence, no quantum correlations between photons and spins are needed to understand the quantum phase diagram. This enables us to determine the quantum phase diagram in the thermodynamic limit using numerical linked-cluster expansions combined with density matrix renormalization group calculations (NLCE+DMRG) to solve the resulting self-consistent matter Hamiltonian. This includes magnetically ordered phases with significantly improved accuracy compared to previous estimates. For ferromagnetic Ising couplings, we refine the location of the multicritical point governing the change in the order of the superradiant phase transition, reaching a relative accuracy of $10^{-4}$ . For antiferromagnetic Ising couplings, we confirm the existence of the narrow antiferromagnetic superradiant phase in the thermodynamic limit. The effective matter Hamiltonian framework identifies the antiferromagnetic superradiant phase as the many-body ground state of an antiferromagnetic transverse-field Ising model with longitudinal field. This phase emerges through continuous Dicke-type polariton condensation from the antiferromagnetic normal phase, followed by a first-order transition to the paramagnetic superradiant phase. Thus, NLCE+DMRG provides a precise determination of the Dicke-Ising phase diagram in one dimension by solving the self-consistent effective matter Hamiltonian.In the thermodynamic limit, the Dicke-Ising chain maps exactly onto an effective self-consistent matter Hamiltonian with the photon field acting solely as a self-consistent effective field.

Scale invariance and self-averaging in disordered systems

Giorgio Parisi A, Marco Picco, Nicolas Sourlas

In a previous paper (Parisi G. and Sourlas N., Phys. Rev. Lett. 89 (2002) 257204) we found that in the random field Ising model at zero temperature in three dimensions the correlation length is not self-averaging near the critical point and that the violation of self-averaging is maximal. This is due to the formation of bound states in the underlying field theory. We present a similar study for the case of disordered Potts and Ising ferromagnets in two dimensions near the critical temperature. In the random Potts model the correlation length is not self-averaging near the critical temperature but the violation of self-averaging is weaker than in the random field case. In the random Ising model we find still weaker violations of self-averaging and we cannot rule out the possibility of the restoration of self-averaging in the infinite volume limit.In a previous paper (Parisi G. and Sourlas N., Phys.
