XY universality of the stacked triangular Ising antiferromagnet
نویسندگان
چکیده
Histogram analysis of Monte-Carlo simulation results of the Ising antiferro-magnet on a stacked triangular lattice are reported. Finite-size scaling estimates for critical exponents suggest XY universality. This result supports earlier predictions based on symmetry arguments and is in contrast with a recent suggestion of a new universality class by Bunker et al.

Monte Carlo study of next - nearest - neighbor Ising antiferromagnet on a stacked triangular lattice
Critical properties of the Ising model on a stacked triangular lattice, with antiferromagnetic first and second-neighbor in-plane interactions, are studied by extensive histogram Monte Carlo simulations. The results, in conjunction with the recently determined phase diagram, strongly suggest that the transition from the period-3 ordered state to the paramagnetic phase remains in the xy universa...
متن کاملChiral-like critical behavior in the antiferromagnet cobalt glycerolate.
Critical exponents closely matching those of the N=2 chiral universality class have been obtained for the layered magnetic system cobalt glycerolate using muon spin relaxation. This class was originally introduced to represent geometrically frustrated triangular stacked-layer XY magnets with chiral noncollinear spin structures. Since the present magnetic system is a canted XY system without geo...
متن کاملFinite-size-scaling analysis of the XY universality class between two and three dimensions: an application of Novotny's transfer-matrix method.
Based on Novotny's transfer-matrix method, we simulated the (stacked) triangular Ising anti-ferromagnet embedded in the space with the dimensions variable in the range 2 < or = d < or = 3. Our aim is to investigate the criticality of the XY universality class for 2 < or = d < or = 3. For that purpose, we employed an extended version of the finite-size-scaling analysis developed by Novotny, who ...
متن کاملWeak first-order transition in the quasi-one-dimensional frustrated XY antiferromagnet
The results of finite-size scaling analysis of histogram Monte-Carlo simulations on the stacked triangular XY antiferromagnet with anisotropic nearneighbor exchange interactions are presented. With ferromagnetic interplane coupling ten times stronger than the antiferromagnetic intraplane interaction (J‖/J⊥ = −10), a weak first-order transition is revealed. These results represents the first sim...
متن کاملQuasi Universality classes ” in 2 D frustrated XY spin systems
Classical XY spins on a two dimensional triangular lattice with antiferromag-netic interactions are reconsidered. We find that the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition associated to the U (1) symmetry appears at a temperature 0.0020(2) below the Ising transition at 0.5122(1) associated to the Z 2 symmetry. The Ising transition has critical exponents different from the standard ones. Using extensive M...
