Correlations in Random Ising Chains at Zero Temperature

Condensed Matter 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We present a general method to calculate the connected correlation function of random Ising chains at zero temperature. This quantity is shown to relate to the surviving probability of some one-dimensional, adsorbing random walker on a finite intervall, the size of which is controlled by the strength of the randomness. For different random field and random bond distributions the correlation length is exactly calculated.
