We revisit the thermodynamic behavior of the random-anisotropy O($N$) model by investigating its large-$N$ limit. We focus on the system at zero temperature where the mean-field-like artifacts of the large-$N$ limit are less severe. We…
We have studied the Potts spin glass with 2-state Ising spins and s-state Potts variables using a cluster Monte Carlo dynamics. The model recovers the +- J Ising spin glass (SG) for s=1 and exhibits for all s a SG transition at T_{SG}(s)…
