Correlation Time Scales in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick Model

Statistical Mechanics 2009-11-07 v1 Disordered Systems and Neural Networks

Abstract

We investigate the dynamical behavior of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field model of spin glasses by numerical simulation. All the time scales tau we have measured behave like ln(tau) propto N^epsilon, where N is the number of spins and epsilon \simeq 1/3. This is true whether the autocorrelation function used to define tau is sensitive to the full reversal of the system or not.
