Exact ground states of one-dimensional long-range random-field Ising magnets

Abstract

We investigate the one-dimensional long-range random-field Ising magnet with Gaussian distribution of the random fields. In this model, a ferromagnetic bond between two spins is placed with a probability $p\sim r^{-1-\sigma }$, where $r$ is the distance between these spins and $\sigma$ is a parameter to control the effective dimension of the model. Exact ground states at zero temperature are calculated for system sizes up to $L=2^{19}$ via graph theoretical algorithms for four different values of $\sigma \in \{0.25,0.4,0.5,1.0\}$ while varying the strength $h$ of the random fields. For each of these values several independent physical observables are calculated, i.e., magnetization, Binder parameter, susceptibility and a specific-heat-like quantity. The ferromagnet-paramagnet transitions at critical values $h_c(\sigma )$ as well as the corresponding critical exponents are obtained. The results agree well with theory and interestingly we find for $\sigma =1/2$ the data is compatible with a critical random-field strength $h_c>0$.

12 pages, 15 figures; Version3: Equation (1) added to introduction. Added paragraph IV.B "Scaling in mean-field region", and IV.C "Corrections to scaling". Corrected paragraph V.A "σ= 0.25" by using the correct ν* = 3 instead of ν= σfor fits and data collapses. Accordingly, the conclusion is also modified
