Negative scaling dimensions and conformal invariance at the Nishimori point in the +/-J random-bond Ising model
ArXiv cond-mat/0201137 (2002)
Abstract:
We reexamine the disorder-dominated multicritical point of the two-dimensional +/-J Ising model, known as the Nishimori point (NP). At the NP we investigate numerically and analytically the behavior of the disorder correlator, familiar from the self-dual description of the pure critical point of the two-dimensional Ising model. We consider the logarithmic average and the q-th moments of this correlator in the ensemble average over randomness, for continuous q in the range 01 and q<0. Using properties on the Nishimori line we show that the first moment (q=1) of the disorder correlator is exactly one for all separations. The spectrum of scaling dimensions at the NP is not parabolic in q.
Quantum and classical localisation, the spin quantum Hall effect and generalisations
ArXiv cond-mat/0201080 (2002)
Abstract:
We consider network models for localisation problems belonging to symmetry class C. This symmetry class arises in a description of the dynamics of quasiparticles for disordered spin-singlet superconductors which have a Bogoliubov - de Gennes Hamiltonian that is invariant under spin rotations but not under time-reversal. Our models include but also generalise the one studied previously in the context of the spin quantum Hall effect. For these systems we express the disorder-averaged conductance and density of states in terms of sums over certain classical random walks, which are self-avoiding and have attractive interactions. A transition between localised and extended phases of the quantum system maps in this way to a similar transition for the classical walks. In the case of the spin quantum Hall effect, the classical walks are the hulls of percolation clusters, and our approach provides an alternative derivation of a mapping first established by Gruzberg, Read and Ludwig, Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 4254 (1999).Radial distribution function of rod-like polyelectrolytes
