Logarithmic corrections in the aging of the fully-frustrated Ising model

Statistical Mechanics 2008-07-12 v2

Abstract

We study the dynamics of the critical two-dimensional fully-frustrated Ising model by means of Monte Carlo simulations. The dynamical exponent is estimated at equilibrium and is shown to be compatible with the value zc=2z_c=2. In a second step, the system is prepared in the paramagnetic phase and then quenched at its critical temperature Tc=0T_c=0. Numerical evidences for the existence of logarithmic corrections in the aging regime are presented. These corrections may be related to the topological defects observed in other fully-frustrated models. The autocorrelation exponent is estimated to be λ=d\lambda=d as for the Ising chain quenched at Tc=0T_c=0.
