Comment on: Dynamic and Static Properties of the Randomly Pinned Flux Array

Abstract

We reconsider the model of the randomly pinned planar flux array (or the two-dimensional XY-model with random fields and no vortices) in extensive Monte Carlo simulations. We show that contrary to what has been reported recently [Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett.\ {\bf 72}, 4133 (1994)] the disorder-averaged displacement correlation function is different from the pure case for larger values of the disorder. Its slope as a function of the logarithm of disorder is compatible with newer RG-calculation results.
