Possibly Exact Solution for the Multicritical Point of Finite-dimensional Spin Glasses
نویسندگان
چکیده
After briefly describing the present status of the spin glass theory, we present a conjecture on the exact location of the multicritical point in the phase diagram of finite-dimensional spin glasses. The theory enables us to understand in a unified way many numerical results for two-, threeand four-dimensional models including the ±J Ising model, random Potts model, random lattice gauge theory, and random Zq model. It is also suggested from the same theoretical framework that models with symmetric distribution of randomness in exchange interaction have no finite-temperature transition on the square lattice.

Location and properties of the multicritical point in the Gaussian and ±J Ising spin glasses
We use transfer-matrix and finite-size scaling methods to investigate the location and properties of the multicritical point of two-dimensional Ising spin glasses on square, triangular, and honeycomb lattices with both binary and Gaussian disorder distributions. For square and triangular lattices with binary disorder, the estimated position of the multicritical point is in numerical agreement w...
متن کاملSymmetry, complexity and multicritical point of the two-dimensional spin glass
We analyze models of spin glasses on the two-dimensional square lattice by exploiting symmetry arguments. The replicated partition functions of the Ising and related spin glasses are shown to have many remarkable symmetry properties as functions of the edge Boltzmann factors. It is shown that the applications of homogeneous and Hadamard inverses to the edge Boltzmann matrix indicate reduced com...
متن کاملDuality in finite-dimensional spin glasses
We present an analysis leading to a conjecture on the exact location of the multicritical point in the phase diagram of spin glasses in finite dimensions. The conjecture, in satisfactory agreement with a number of numerical results, was previously derived using an ansatz emerging from duality and the replica method. In the present paper we carefully examine the ansatz and reduce it to a hypothe...
متن کاملAnalytical evidence for the absence of spin glass transition on self-dual lattices
We show strong evidence for the absence of a finite-temperature spin glass transition for the random-bond Ising model on self-dual lattices. The analysis is performed by an application of duality relations, which enables us to derive a precise but approximate location of the multicritical point on the Nishimori line. This method can be systematically improved to presumably give the exact result...
متن کاملMulticritical point of Ising spin glasses on triangular and honeycomb lattices
The behavior of two-dimensional Ising spin glasses at the multicritical point on triangular and honeycomb lattices is investigated with the help of finite-size scaling and conformal-invariance concepts. We use transfermatrix methods on long strips to calculate domain-wall energies, uniform susceptibilities, and spin-spin correlation functions. Accurate estimates are provided for the location of...
