Abstract

We present numerical simulations of the four-dimensional Edwards Anderson Ising spin glass with binary couplings. Our results, in the midst of strong finite-size effects, suggest the existence of a spin-glass phase transition. We present a preliminar determination of critical exponents. We discuss spin-glass susceptibilities, cumulants of the overlap and energy overlap probability distributions, finite-size effects, and the behaviour of the disorder-dependent and integrated probability distributions.

Numerical simulations of the four-dimensional Edwards-Anderson spin glass with binary couplings

Enzo Marinari, Francesco Zuliani

We present numerical results that allow a precise determination of the transition point and of the critical exponents of the four-dimensional Edwards-Anderson spin glass with binary quenched random couplings. We show that the low-temperature phase undergoes replica symmetry breaking. We obtain results on large lattices, up to a volume V = 10 4 : we use finite-size scaling to show the relevance of our results in the infinite volume limit.

Phase structure of the three-dimensional Edwards-Anderson spin glass

Enzo Marinari, Giorgio Parisi A, Juan Jesus Ruiz-Lorenzo

We characterize numerically the properties of the phase transition of the three-dimensional Ising spin glass with Gaussian couplings and of the low-temperature phase. We compute critical exponents on large lattices. We study in detail the overlap probability distribution and the equilibrium overlap-overlap correlation functions. We find a clear agreement with off-equilibrium results from previous work. These results strongly support the existence of a continuous spontaneous replica symmetry breaking in three-dimensional spin glasses.

Four-dimensional spin glasses in a magnetic field have a mean-field-like phase

Enzo Marinari, Giorgio Parisi A, F Zuliani

By using numerical simulations we show that the four-dimensional Edwards Anderson spin glass in magnetic field undergoes a mean-field-like phase transition. We use a dynamical approach: we simulate large lattices (of volume V ) and work out the behaviour of the system in a limit where both t and V go to infinity, but where the limit is taken first. By showing that the dynamic overlap q converges to a value smaller than the static one we exhibit replica symmetry breaking. The critical exponents are compatible with those obtained by mean-field computations.

Study of the phase transition in the 3D Ising spin glass from out-of-equilibrium numerical simulations

Sergio Perez-Gaviro, Juan Jesus Ruiz-Lorenzo, Alfonso Tarancón

Using the decay of the out equilibrium spin-spin correlation function we compute the equilibrium Edward-Anderson order parameter in the three dimensional binary Ising spin glass in the spin glass phase. We have checked that the Edward-Anderson order parameter computed from out of equilibrium numerical simulations follows with good precision the critical law as determined in experiments and in numerical studies at equilibrium. We have also studied the dependence of the order parameter with the lattice size. Finally we present a large time study of the scaling of the off-equilibrium fluctuation-dissipation relations.

Finite-size scaling analysis of the distributions of pseudo-critical temperatures in spin glasses

Alain H. Billoire, L. A. Fernández, A. Maiorano +3 more

Using the results of large scale numerical simulations we study the probability distribution of the pseudo-critical temperature for the three-dimensional Edwards–Anderson Ising spin glass and for the fully connected Sherrington–Kirkpatrick model. We find that the behaviour of our data is nicely described by straightforward finite-size scaling relations.

Scaling Analysis of Domain-Wall Free Energy in the Edwards-Anderson Ising Spin Glass in a Magnetic Field

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

The stability of the spin-glass phase against a magnetic field is studied in the three- and four-dimensional Edwards-Anderson Ising spin glasses. Effective couplings J(eff) and effective fields H(eff) associated with length scale L are measured by a numerical domain-wall renormalization-group method. The results obtained by scaling analysis of the data strongly indicate the existence of a crossover length beyond which the spin-glass order is destroyed by field H. The crossover length well obeys a power law of H which diverges as H --> 0 but remains finite for any nonzero H, implying that the spin-glass phase is absent even in an infinitesimal field. These results are well consistent with the droplet theory for short-range spin glasses.
