Low-temperature transition of 2d random-bond Ising model and quantum infinite randomness

Akshat Pandey, Aditya Mahadevan, A. Alan Middleton +1

At low temperatures, the classical two-dimensional random bond Ising model undergoes a frustration-driven ferromagnet-to-paramagnet transition controlled by a zero-temperature fixe…

Numerically exact correlations and sampling in the two-dimensional Ising spin glass

Creighton K. Thomas, A. Alan Middleton

A powerful existing technique for evaluating statistical mechanical quantities in two-dimensional Ising models is based on constructing a matrix representing the nearest neighbor s…

Zero and low temperature behavior of the two-dimensional Ising spin glass

Creighton K. Thomas, David A. Huse, A. Alan Middleton

Scaling arguments and precise simulations are used to study the square lattice Ising spin glass, a prototypical model for glassy systems. Droplet theory predicts, and our n…

Chaos and universality in two-dimensional Ising spin glasses

Creighton K. Thomas, David A. Huse, A. Alan Middleton

Recently extended precise numerical methods and droplet scaling arguments allow for a coherent picture of the glassy states of two-dimensional Ising spin glasses to be assembled. T…

Matching Kasteleyn Cities for Spin Glass Ground States

Creighton K. Thomas, A. Alan Middleton

As spin glass materials have extremely slow dynamics, devious numerical methods are needed to study low-temperature states. A simple and fast optimization version of the classical…
