High-temperature series for the bond-diluted Ising model in 3, 4, and 5 dimensions

Abstract

In order to study the influence of quenched disorder on second-order phase transitions, high-temperature series expansions of the susceptibility and the free energy are obtained for the quenched bond-diluted Ising model in $d=3--5$ dimensions. They are analyzed using different extrapolation methods tailored to the expected singularity behaviors. In $d=4$ and 5 dimensions we confirm that the critical behavior is governed by the pure fixed point up to dilutions near the geometric bond percolation threshold. The existence and form of logarithmic corrections for the pure Ising model in $d=4$ are confirmed, and our results for the critical behavior of the diluted system are in agreement with the type of singularity predicted by renormalization group considerations. In three dimensions we find large crossover effects between the pure Ising, percolation, and random fixed points. We estimate the critical exponent of the susceptibility to be $\ensuremath{\gamma}=1.305(5)$ at the random fixed point.

Bond dilution in the 3D Ising model: a Monte Carlo study

Pierre-Emmanuel Berche, Christophe Chatelain, Wolfhard Janke

We study by Monte Carlo simulations the influence of bond dilution on the three-dimensional Ising model. This paradigmatic model in its pure version displays a second-order phase transition with a positive specific heat critical exponent $\alpha$ . According to the Harris criterion disorder should hence lead to a new fixed point characterized by new critical exponents. We have determined the phase diagram of the diluted model, starting from the pure model limit down to the neighbourhood of the percolation threshold. For the estimation of critical exponents, we have first performed a finite-size scaling study, where we concentrated on three different dilutions to check the stability of the disorder fixed point. We emphasize in this work the great influence of the cross-over phenomena between the pure, disorder and percolation fixed points which lead to effective critical exponents dependent on the concentration. In a second set of simulations, the temperature behaviour of physical quantities has been studied in order to characterize the disorder fixed point more accurately. In particular this allowed us to estimate ratios of some critical amplitudes. In accord with previous observations for other models this provides stronger evidence for the existence of the disorder fixed point since the amplitude ratios are more sensitive to the universality class than the critical exponents. Moreover, the question of non-self-averaging at the disorder fixed point is investigated and compared with recent results for the bond-diluted q = 4 Potts model. Overall our numerical results provide evidence that, as expected on theoretical grounds, the critical behaviour of the bond-diluted model is indeed governed by the same universality class as the site-diluted model.

Universal dependence on disorder of two-dimensional randomly diluted and random-bond ±J Ising models

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

We consider the two-dimensional randomly site diluted Ising model and the random-bond +/-J Ising model (also called the Edwards-Anderson model), and study their critical behavior at the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition. The critical behavior of thermodynamic quantities can be derived from a set of renormalization-group equations, in which disorder is a marginally irrelevant perturbation at the two-dimensional Ising fixed point. We discuss their solutions, focusing in particular on the universality of the logarithmic corrections arising from the presence of disorder. Then, we present a finite-size scaling analysis of high-statistics Monte Carlo simulations. The numerical results confirm the renormalization-group predictions, and in particular the universality of the logarithmic corrections to the Ising behavior due to quenched dilution.

Critical behavior of the weakly disordered Ising model: Six-loop ɛ expansion study

Mikhail Vladimirovich Kompaniets, Andrey Kudlis, Aleksandr Ivanovich Sokolov

The critical behavior of three-dimensional weakly diluted quenched Ising model is examined on the base of six-loop renormalization group expansions obtained within the minimal subtraction scheme in 4-ɛ space dimensions. For this purpose the ϕ^{4} field theory with cubic symmetry was analyzed in the replica limit n→0. Along with renormalization group expansions in terms of renormalized couplings the sqrt[ɛ] expansions of critical exponents are presented. Corresponding numerical estimates for the physical, three-dimensional system are obtained by means of different resummation procedures applied both to the sqrt[ɛ] series and to initial renormalization group expansions. The results given by the latter approach are in a good agreement with their counterparts obtained experimentally and within the Monte Carlo simulations, while resumming of sqrt[ɛ] series themselves turned out to be disappointing.

Softening of first-order transition in three-dimensions by quenched disorder

Christophe Chatelain, Bertrand Berche, Wolfhard Janke E +1 more

We study by extensive Monte Carlo simulations the effect of random bond dilution on the phase transition of the three-dimensional four-state Potts model that is known to exhibit a strong first-order transition in the pure case. The phase diagram in the dilution-temperature plane is determined from the peaks of the susceptibility for sufficiently large system sizes. In the strongly disordered regime, numerical evidence for softening to a second-order transition induced by randomness is given. Here a large-scale finite-size scaling analysis, made difficult due to strong crossover effects presumably caused by the percolation fixed point, is performed.

Critical behavior of a three-dimensional random-bond Ising model using finite-time scaling with extensive Monte Carlo renormalization-group method

Wanjie Xiong, Fan Zhong, Weilun Yuan +1 more

We have investigated the critical behavior of a three-dimensional random-bond Ising model for a series of the disorder strength by a finite-time scaling combining with Monte Carlo renormalization-group method in the presence of a linearly varying temperature. The method enables us to estimate a lot of critical exponents of both static and dynamic nature independently as well as the critical temperatures. The static exponents obtained agree well with most existing results, verify both the hyperscaling and the Rushbrooke scaling laws and their combined scaling law, which in turn validate their asymptotic nature, and corroborate the universality of the relevant random fixed point with respect to the forms of disorder. The dynamic critical exponent z is estimated to 2.114(51), which is compatible with those obtained from experiments and renormalization-group analyses. The exponents at low and high disorder strengths do not satisfy all scaling laws and are argued to be crossover exponents that reflect crossover from the random fixed point to the pure and the percolation fixed point. They also indicate that the exponents that were previously suggested to be a distinct universality class for strong disorder strength in the literature may be just crossover. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of the finite-time scaling method.

Effective and asymptotic critical exponents of a weakly diluted quenched Ising model: Three-dimensional approach versus ɛ expansion

R. Folk, Yurij V. Holovatch, Taras Yavors’kii

We present a field-theoretical treatment of the critical behavior of a three-dimensional weakly diluted quenched Ising model. To this end we analyze in the replica limit $\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{n}0$ the five-loop renormalization-group functions of the ${\ensuremath{\varphi}}^{4}$ theory with $O(n)$-symmetric and cubic interactions [H. Kleinert and V. Schulte-Frohlinde, Phys. Lett. B 342, 284 (1995)]. The minimal subtraction scheme allows one to develop either the $\sqrt{\ensuremath{\varepsilon}}$-expansion series or to proceed within the three-dimensional approach, performing expansions in terms of renormalized couplings. Doing so, we compare both perturbation approaches and discuss their convergence and possible Borel summability. To study the crossover effect we calculate the effective critical exponents. We report resummed numerical values for the effective and asymptotic critical exponents. The results obtained within the three-dimensional approach agree pretty well with recent Monte Carlo simulations. $\sqrt{\ensuremath{\varepsilon}}$ expansion does not allow reliable estimates for $d=3.$
