Abstract

A quantum version of the site-random Heisenberg planar XY model in a random field is presented in the boson representation. Like classical spherical model in the spin space, the model can be solved exactly within the coherent state path integral-representation. The phase diagram is obtained, and the effects of the randomness and quantum fluctuations on the onset of a spin glass phase are discussed.

Quantum fluctuations in the transverse Ising spin glass model: A field theory of random quantum spin systems

Kazutaka Takahashi

We develop a mean-field theory for random quantum spin systems using the spin coherent state path integral representation. After the model is reduced to the mean-field one-body Hamiltonian, the integral is analyzed with the aid of several methods such as the semiclassical method and the gauge transformation. As an application we consider the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model in a transverse field. Using the Landau expansion and its improved versions, we give a detailed analysis of the imaginary-time dependence of the order parameters. Integrating out the quantum part of the order parameters, we obtain the effective renormalized free energy written in terms of the classically defined order parameters. Our method allows us to obtain the spin glass-paramagnetic phase transition point $\ensuremath{\Gamma}∕J\ensuremath{\sim}1.62$ at $T=0$.

Ground-State Phase Diagrams of the Two-Dimensional Quantum Heisenberg Spin Glass Models

Yoshihiko Nonomura, Yukiyasu Ozeki

Ground-state properties of the two-dimensional S = 1/2 random Heisenberg models are investigated by the exact-diagonalization method. The phase diagram of the bondrandom model (the ±J model) is the same as that of the corresponding Ising spin glass model, in spite of quantum fluctuation. In the site-random model, the spin glass phase exists at least in the ferro-rich case. In comparison with the corresponding Ising model, the Néel phase of this model becomes much narrower in the ferro-rich case, while it is comparable in the antiferro-rich case.

Ground-State Phase Diagrams of the Two-Dimensional Quantum Heisenberg Spin Glass Models

Yoshihiko Nonomura, Yukiyasu Ozeki

Ground-state properties of the two-dimensional $S=1/2$ random Heisenberg models are investigated by the exact-diagonalization method. The phase diagram of the bond-random model (the $\pm J$ model) is the same as that of the corresponding Ising spin glass model, in spite of quantum fluctuation. In the site-random model, the spin glass phase exists at least in the ferro-rich case. In comparison with the corresponding Ising model, the Néel phase of this model becomes much narrower in the ferro-rich case, while it is comparable in the antiferro-rich case.

Discontinuous spin-glass transition in a random quantum Heisenberg magnet

T. K. Kopeć

We study the Schwinger bosons SU(M) generalization of the spin-S (S\ensuremath{\equiv}\ensuremath{\kappa}M) quantum Heisenberg magnet with infinite-range, Gaussian-random exchange interactions. The spin-glass transition was accessed in the spherical limit M=\ensuremath{\infty} with fixed \ensuremath{\kappa}. The model is solved exactly in the spin-glass phase wthin the Parisi ansatz with a single step of the replica symmetry breaking. The physical consequences of this quantum spin-glass transition scenario are discussed.

Transverse freezing in the infinite-range quantum Ising spin glass with transverse and Gaussian random longitudinal fields

Yu‐qiang Ma, Zhen‐Ya Li, Chang-De Gong

The infinite-range quantum Ising spin glass in a transverse and a Gaussian random field has been studied by combining the pair approximation with the discretized path-integral representation. The phase diagrams are obtained, and the possibilities of the existence of a mixed phase in which ferromagnetism and spin-glass order coexist are discussed. This is expected to interpret some properties of the mixed hydrogen-bonded ferroelectric and antiferroelectric crystals such as Rb 1-x (NH) 4x H 2 PO.

Random-field effect on the quantum ferromagnetic XY model

Yu‐qiang Ma

The quantum version of the random-field spherical $\mathrm{XY}$ model on a $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice is presented in the boson space, and solved exactly. We recover the Imry-Ma result concerning the lower critical dimension ${d}_{c}=4,$ and calculate the critical exponents near the critical temperature. In particular, we obtain a general phase diagram of the model with arbitrary dimension $d$ when $d>{d}_{c}.$ The ferromagnetic ordering is reduced by quantum fluctuations, and destroyed completely by random-field fluctuations with sufficiently large values of the random-field variance \ensuremath{\sigma}. The entropy and the specific heat vanish as ${T}^{d/2}$ at low temperatures. Since the model is equivalent to a Bose system, we show a superfluid-Mott insulator transition at a critical chemical potential ${\ensuremath{\mu}}_{c}.$
