Competing Glauber and Kawasaki Dynamics

Abstract

Using a quantum formulation of the master equation we study a kinetic Ising model with competing stochastic processes: the Glauber dynamics with probability p and the Kawasaki dynamics with probability 1-p. Introducing explicitly the coupling to a heat bath and the mutual static interaction of the spins the model can be traced back exactly to a Ginzburg–Landau functional when the interaction is of long range order. The dependence of the correlation length on the temperature and on the probability p is calculated. In case that the spins are subject to flip processes the correlation length disappears for each finite temperature. In the exchange dominated case the system is strongly correlated for each temperature.

One-dimensional kinetic Ising model with competing spin-flip and spin-exchange dynamics: Ordering in the case of long-range exchanges

Michel Droz, Zoltàn Ràcz, P. Tartaglia

Ordering of a one-dimensional stochastic Ising model evolving by a combination of spin flips and spin exchanges is investigated. The spin-flip rates satisfy detailed balance for the equilibrium state of the Ising model at temperature T, while the spin exchanges are random and of arbitrary range. Analytical methods and Monte Carlo simulations are used to show that, depending on the details of the spin-flip rate, finite-temperature phase transition may or may not occur in the system. When ordering occurs, it is of mean-field type and the scaling function describing the finite-size scaling of the magnetization fluctuations is found to be indistinguishable from that of an equilibrium Ising model with infinite-range interaction.

Monte Carlo simulation of an antiferromagnetic Ising model at two competing temperatures

B. C. S. Grandi, W. Figueiredo

We consider a two-dimensional antiferromagnet Ising system interacting with a heat bath at temperature T. The dynamics of the system is simulated by two competing stochastic processes: the two-spin-exchange Kawasaki kinetics at temperature T>0 and the one-spin-flip Glauber dynamics at T(G)-->0(-), which mimics the increase of the energy of the system. These two processes have probabilities 1-p and p, respectively. Monte Carlo simulations were employed to determine the phase diagram for the stationary states of the model and the corresponding critical exponents. Contrary to the ferromagnetic case, the phase diagram obtained does not exhibit the phenomenon of self-organization: for any nonzero value of the competing parameter p, and for any value of T, the only stationary phase which remains is the ferromagnetic one. At the phase transition between the antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic phases, at p=0, the values found for the critical exponents agree with those of the corresponding equilibrium Ising model.

Relaxation of the Ising spin system coupled to a bosonic bath and the time dependent mean field equation

Máté Tibor Veszeli, Gábor Vattay

The Ising model does not have strictly defined dynamics, only a spectrum. There are different ways to equip it with time dependence, e.g., the Glauber or the Kawasaki dynamics, which are both stochastic, but it means there is a master equation that can also describe their dynamics. These equations can be derived from the Redfield equation, where the spin system is weakly coupled to a bosonic bath. In this paper, we investigate the temperature dependence of the relaxation time of a Glauber-type master equation, especially in the case of the fully connected, uniform Ising model. The finite-size effects were analyzed with a reduced master equation and the thermodynamic limit with a time-dependent mean field equation.

Monte Carlo Simulations of the Spin-3/2 Ashkin-Teller Model in the Presence of Two Competing Dynamics

S. I. V. Hontinfinde, Mahouto Fini Gbede, Juel Kple +2 more

This paper studies, by means of Monte Carlo simulations, an open ferromagnetic spin-3/2 Ashkin-Teller model defined on a square lattice. This model can be viewed as the superposition of two Ising models which are coupled by a four-spin interaction strength K4while in each Ising model, the nearest-neighbor interaction constant is K2. The model is here submitted to two stochastic dynamics that consist of two processes; the first one is the Glauber dynamics which simulates the contact of the system with a heat bath at temperature T and the second one is the Kawasaki dynamics which simulates the continuous energy flux into the system from an external source. The Glauber single-spin flip process happens with the probability p while the Kawasaki spin-exchange process between neighboring sites occurs with the probability q = 1− p. The temperature-dependence of the system magnetizations for fixed coupling constants and lattice anisotropy has been thoroughly investigated. Several thermodynamic phases and phase transitions have been obtained as well as multicritical points. When the Kawasaki dynamics becomes dominant, self-organized antiferromagnetic phases are generated. Several phase diagrams have been devised to illustrate model thermodynamic properties.

On the dynamics of the Ising model (master equation/spin correlation functions/hierarchy of correlation e

Elliott W. Montroll

A two-dimensional (and to some degree three-di- mensional) version of Glauber's one-dimensional relaxation model is described. The model is constructed to yield the Ising model of cooperative phenomena at equilibrium. A complete hi- erarchy of differential equations for multispin correlation func- tions is constructed. Some remarks are made concerning the solu- tion of them for the initial value problem of determining the relaxation of an initial set of distributions. Investigations of the equilibrium thermodynamic properties of the Ising model have expanded our intuition on the general na- ture of phase transitions. They have also provided an accurate representation of the behavior of certain real systems well char- acterized by the model. Dynamical models of cooperative phe- nomena have proven harder to develop. Glauber (1) introduced an interesting master equation for the dynamics of the Ising spin variables on a one-dimensional chain. This equation is constructed so that the spin-flipping process at a given time is determined by two competing influences: (i) temperature ef- fects which at higher temperatures tend to randomize the sys- tem, and (ii) correlation effects of a given with its neighbors which tend to align a given with its neighbors. Although some literature has been generated for the investigation of two- dimensional and three-dimensional generalizations of the Glauber model (cf. Kawasaki (2) and Matsudaira (3, 4)), a de- tailed analysis of the appropriate hierarchy of rate equations for the dynamics of correlation functions has not yet been given. The purpose of this report is to make a contribution to such a program.

Effect of antiferromagnetic exchange interactions on the Glauber dynamics of one-dimensional Ising models

M. G. Pini, A. Rettori

We study the effect of antiferromagnetic interactions on the single spin-flip Glauber dynamics of two different one-dimensional Ising models with spin $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}1$. The first model is an Ising chain with antiferromagnetic exchange interaction limited to nearest neighbors and subject to an oscillating magnetic field. The system of master equations describing the time evolution of sublattice magnetizations can easily be solved within a linear field approximation and a long time limit. Resonant behavior of the magnetization as a function of temperature (stochastic resonance) is found, at low frequency, only when spins on opposite sublattices are uncompensated owing to different gyromagnetic factors (i.e., in the presence of a ferrimagnetic short range order). The second model is the axial next-nearest-neighbor Ising (ANNNI) chain, where an antiferromagnetic exchange between next-nearest neighbors is assumed to compete with a nearest-neighbor exchange interaction of either sign. The long time response of the model to a weak, oscillating magnetic field is investigated in the framework of a decoupling approximation for three-spin correlation functions, which is required to close the system of master equations. The calculation, within such an approximate theoretical scheme, of the dynamic critical exponent $z$, defined as $1∕\ensuremath{\tau}\ensuremath{\approx}{(1∕\ensuremath{\xi})}^{z}$ (where $\ensuremath{\tau}$ is the longest relaxation time and $\ensuremath{\xi}$ is the correlation length of the chain), suggests that the $T=0$ single spin-flip Glauber dynamics of the ANNNI chain is in a different universality class than that of the unfrustrated Ising chain.
