چکیده
We study geometrical properties of interfaces in the random-temperature q-states Potts model as an example of a conformal field theory weakly perturbed by quenched disorder. Using conformal perturbation theory in q-2 we compute the fractal dimension of Fortuin-Kasteleyn (FK) domain walls. We also compute it numerically both via the Wolff cluster algorithm for q=3 and via transfer-matrix evaluations. We also obtain numerical results for the fractal dimension of spin clusters interfaces for q=3. These are found numerically consistent with the duality kappaspinkappaFK=16 as expressed in putative SLE parameters.

Unusual universality of branching interfaces in random media.
We study the criticality of a Potts interface by introducing a froth model which, unlike its SOS Ising counterpart, incorporates bubbles of different phases. The interface is fractal at the phase transition of a pure system. However, a position space approximation suggests that the probability of loop formation vanishes marginally at a transition dominated by strong random bond disorder. This i...
متن کاملNishimori Point in Random-bond Ising and Potts Models in 2d
We study the universality class of the fixed points of the 2D random bond q-state Potts model by means of numerical transfer matrix methods. In particular, we determine the critical exponents associated with the fixed point on the Nishimori line. Precise measurements show that the universality class of this fixed point is inconsistent with percolation on Potts clusters for q = 2, corresponding ...
متن کاملRenormalisation group calculation of correlation functions for the 2D random bond Ising and Potts models
We find the cross-over behavior for the spin-spin correlation function for the 2D Ising and 3-states Potts model with random bonds at the critical point. The procedure employed is the renormalisation approach of the perturbation series around the conformal field theories representing the pure models. We obtain a crossover in the amplitude for the correlation function for the Ising model which d...
متن کاملShort-time dynamics and magnetic critical behavior of two-dimensional random-bond Potts model
The critical behavior in the short-time dynamics for the random-bond Potts ferromagnet in two-dimensions is investigated by short-time dynamic Monte Carlo simulations. The numerical calculations show that this dynamic approach can be applied efficiently to study the scaling characteristic, which is used to estimate the critical exponents θ, β/ν and z, for the quenched disorered systems from the...
متن کاملRandom-bond Potts models on hypercubic lattices: high-temperature series expansions*
We derive high-temperature series expansions for the free energy and the susceptibility of random-bond qstate Potts models on hypercubic lattices using a stax-graph expansion technique. This method enables the exact calculation of quenched disorder averages for arbitrary uncorrelated coupling distributions. Moreover, we can keep the disorder strength p as well as the dimension d as symbolic par...
