Continuum quantum ferromagnets at finite temperature and the Quantum Hall effect

Condensed Matter 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

We study finite temperature (TT) properties of the continuum quantum field theory of systems with a ferromagnetic ground state. A scaling theory of the T=0T=0 system is discussed carefully, and its consequences for crossovers between different finite TT regimes in dimensions 1, 2, and 3 are described. The results are compared with recent NMR measurements of the magnetization of a quantum Hall system with filling factor ν=1\nu=1; we predict that the relaxation rate 1/T11/T_1 of this system may have a finite TT ``ferromagnetic coherence peak''.
