چکیده

From a heuristic calculation of the leading order essential singularity in the distribution of Yang-Lee zeroes, we obtain new scaling relations near the ferromagnetic-Griffiths transition, including the prediction of a discontinuity on the analogue of the critical isotherm. We show that experimental data for the magnetization and heat capacity of La(0.7)Ca(0.3)MnO(3) are consistent with these predictions, thus supporting its identification as a Griffiths ferromagnet.

Effects of rare regions on magnetic quantum phase transitions

Abstract. The Griffiths region that results from rare regions in disordered itinerant quantum magnets, and its influence on the critical behavior, is considered within the framework of an effective field theory. It is shown that local moments destroy the previously found critical fixed point for antiferromagnets. In contrast, the critical behavior of itinerant ferromagnets is unaffected by the ...

Numerical Renormalization Group Study of Random Transverse Ising Models in One and Two Space Dimensions

The quantum critical behavior and the Griffiths-McCoy singularities of random quantum Ising ferromagnets are studied by applying a numerical implementation of the Ma-DasguptaHu renormalization group scheme. We check the procedure for the analytically tractable one-dimensional case and apply our code to the quasi-one-dimensional double chain. For the latter we obtain identical critical exponents...

Quantum critical behavior in disordered itinerant ferromagnets: Instability of the ferromagnetic phase

An effective field theory is derived, which describes the quantum critical behavior of itinerant ferromagnets, as the transition is approached from the ferromagnetic phase. This complements a recent study of the critical behavior on the paramagnetic side of the phase transition, and investigates the role of the ferromagnetic Goldstone modes near criticality. We find that the Goldstone modes hav...

Quantum critical behavior in disordered itinerant ferromagnets: Logarithmic corrections to scaling

The quantum critical behavior of disordered itinerant ferromagnets is determined exactly by solving a recently developed effective field theory. It is shown that there are logarithmic corrections to a previous calculation of the critical behavior, and that the exact critical behavior coincides with that found earlier for a phase transition of undetermined nature in disordered interacting-electr...

GHS and other Inequalities *

We use a transformation due to Percus to give a simple derivation of the Griffiths, Hurst, and Sherman, and some other new inequalities, for Ising ferromagnets with pair interactions. The proof makes use of the Griffiths, Kelly, and Sherman and the Fortuin, Kasteleyn, and Ginibre inequalities.
