GCMC Glauber dynamics study for structural transitions in YBCOx (0<x<1), HTc system

author

Abstract:

We have chosen an Ising ASYNNNI (ASYmmetric Next Nearest Neighbor Interaction)   model under a grand canonical regime to investigate structural phase transition from a high symmetric tetragonal (Tet) to a low symmetric orthorhombic in YBa2Cu3O6+x , 0<x<1,  HTc system. Ordering process for absorbed oxygens from an external gas bath into the basal plane of the layered system is studied by Monte Carlo Glauber dynamics which focuses on the effect of chemical potential in the bath on the oxygen diffusion inside the basal plain, as well. It is predicted short range super-lattice phases called orthorhombic II and III (OII, OIII) and also a long range orthorhombic I (OI) phase, corresponding to the oxygen stoichiometry, x, and temperature. It is consistent with literatures and confirmed by our ND studies (ILL, France) too.

Glauber Dynamics in High Dimensions

We study Glauber dynamics on Z, which is a dynamic version of the celebrated Ising model of ferromagnetism. Spins are initially chosen according to a Bernoulli distribution with density p, and then the states are continuously (and randomly) updated according to the majority rule. This corresponds to the sudden quenching of a ferromagnetic system at high temperature with an external field, to on...

Glauber dynamics and ageing

The Glauber dynamics of various models (REM–like trap models, Brownian motion, BM model, Ising chain and SK model) is analyzed in relation with the existence of ageing. From a finite size Glauber matrix, we calculate a time τw(N) after which the system has relaxed to the equilibrium state. The case of metastability is also discussed. If the only non zero overlaps between pure states are only se...

Glauber Dynamics for Fermion Point Processes

We construct a Glauber dynamics on {0, 1}, R a discrete space, with infinite range flip rates, for which a fermion point process is reversible. We also discuss the ergodicity of the corresponding Markov process and the log-Sobolev inequality.

Surfaces of Constant Temperature for Glauber Dynamics

The wavefunction of a single spin system in a prepared initial state evolves to equilibrium with a heat bath. The average spin q(t) = p↑(t)− p↓(t) exhibits a characteristic time for this evolution. With the proper choice of spin flip rates, a dynamical Ising model (Glauber) can be constructed with the same characteristic time for transition of the average spin to equilibrium. The Glauber dynami...

Fast Initial Conditions for Glauber Dynamics

In the study of Markov chain mixing times, analysis has centered on the performance from a worst-case starting state. Here, in the context of Glauber dynamics for the one-dimensional Ising model, we show how new ideas from information percolation can be used to establish mixing times from other starting states. At high temperatures we show that the alternating initial condition is asymptoticall...

Competing Glauber and Kawasaki Dynamics

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 explicitely 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 ...
