Monte Carlo Simulation of the Three-dimensional Ising Spin Glass

چکیده
Abstract. We study the 3D Edwards–Anderson model with binary interactions by Monte Carlo simulations. Direct evidence of finite–size scaling is provided, and the universal finite–size scaling functions are determined. Using an iterative extrapolation procedure, Monte Carlo data are extrapolated to infinite volume up to correlation length ξ ≈ 140. The infinite volume data are consistent with both a continuous phase transition at finite temperature and an essential singularity at finite temperature. An essential singularity at zero temperature is excluded.

Dynamical aspects of equilibrium and off - equilibrium simulations of a three - dimensional Heisenberg spin glass
Spin-glass and chiral-glass orderings of a three-dimensional isotropic Heisenberg spin glass are studied both by equilibrium and off-equilibrium Monte Carlo simulations with emphasis on their dynamical aspects. The model is found to exhibit a finite-temperature chiral-glass transition without the conventional spin-glass order. Although chirality is an Ising-like quantity from symmetry, universa...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulations of Vector Spin Glasses at Low Temperatures
In this paper I report results for simulations of the three-dimensional gauge glass and the four-dimensional XY spin glass using the parallel tempering Monte Carlo method at low temperatures for moderate sizes. The results are qualitatively consistent with earlier work on the threeand four-dimensional Edwards-Anderson Ising spin glass. I find evidence that large-scale excitations may cost only ...

We report large-scale simulations of the three-dimensional Edwards–Anderson Ising spin-glass model using the multi-overlap Monte Carlo algorithm. We present our results in the spin-glass phase on free-energy barriers and the non-trivial finite-size scaling behavior of the Parisi order-parameter distribution. 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.

متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation of a Random-Field Ising Antiferromagnet
Phase transitions in the three-dimensional diluted Ising antiferromagnet in an applied magnetic field are analyzed numerically. It is found that random magnetic field in a system with spin concentration below a certain threshold induces a crossover from second-order phase transition to first-order transition to a new phase characterized by a spin-glass ground state and metastable energy states ...
متن کاملScaling and super-universality in the coarsening dynamics of the 3D random field Ising model
We study the coarsening dynamics of the three-dimensional random field Ising model using Monte Carlo numerical simulations. We test the dynamic scaling and super-scaling properties of global and local two-time observables. We treat in parallel the three-dimensional Edward–Anderson spin glass and we recall results on Lennard-Jones mixtures and colloidal suspensions to highlight the common and di...
متن کاملEnergy barriers of spin glasses from multi-overlap simulations
We report large-scale simulations of the three-dimensional Edwards-Anderson Ising spin glass system using the recently introduced multi-overlap Monte Carlo algorithm. In this approach the temperature is fixed and two replica are coupled through a weight factor such that a broad distribution of the Parisi overlap parameter q is achieved. Canonical expectation values for the entire q-range (multi...
