In the present chapter, we focus on the switching of magnetisation, or the metastable lifetime of a ferromagnetic system. In this regard, particularly the Ising model and the Blume-Capel model, have been simulated in the presence of an…
On locally tree-like random graphs, we relate the random cluster model with external magnetic fields and $q\geq 2$ to Ising models with vertex-dependent external fields. The fact that one can formulate general random cluster models in terms…
We revisit the phenomenon of spinodals in the presence of quenched disorder and develop a complete theory for it. We focus on the spinodal of an Ising model in a quenched random field (RFIM), which has applications in many areas from…
We have measured magnetic-field-induced avalanches in a square artificial spin ice array of interacting nanomagnets. Starting from the ground state ordered configuration, we imaged the individual nanomagnet moments after each successive…

We consider the non-conserved dynamics of the Ising model on the two-dimensional square lattice, where each spin is influenced preferentially by its East and North neighbours. The single-spin flip rates are such that the stationary state is…
We investigate the nucleation dynamics of the three-dimensional random field Ising model (RFIM) under an external field. We use umbrella sampling to compute the free-energy cost of a critical nucleus, and use forward flux sampling for the…
We enlighten some critical aspects of the three-dimensional ($d=3$) random-field Ising model from simulations performed at zero temperature. We consider two different, in terms of the field distribution, versions of model, namely a Gaussian…
As a result of the interplay between the intrinsic off-diagonal terms of the dipolar interaction and an applied {\it transverse} field $H_t$, the diluted ${\rm LiHo_xY_{1-x}F_4}$ system at x$> 0.5$ is equivalent to a ferromagnet in a…
The dipolar-random field Ising model (DRFIM) recently introduced displays a behaviour that can be connected to the magnetization of bidimensional magnetic media. Epitaxial magnetic garnet films seem to be the ideal test material for such a…
The spin-1/2 Ising model on a square lattice, with fluctuating bond interactions between nearest neighbors and in the presence of a random magnetic field, is investigated within the framework of the effective field theory based on the use…
In a recent letter, Fytas et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 122, 240603 (2019)] study the critical point of the equilibrium random-field Ising model (RFIM) in $D=5$ by means of state-of-art zero-temperature lattice simulations. We show that their…
The S=1/2, nearest-neighbor, kinetic Ising model has been used to model magnetization switching in nanoscale ferromagnets. For this model, earlier work based on the droplet theory of the decay of metastable phases and Monte Carlo…
Here we present a new perspective to the breakdown of ferromagnetic order in two-dimensional spin-lattice models employing the rotation of the underlying lattice. Using an Ising spin system on a square lattice as a prototype, we demonstrate…
Transfer-matrix methods are used to calculate spin-spin correlation functions ($G$), Helmholtz free energies ($f$) and magnetizations ($m$) in the two-dimensional random-field Ising model close to the zero-field bulk critical temperature…
We modify the kinetic Ising model with Metropolis dynamics, allowing each spin to interact only with $q$ spins randomly chosen from the whole system, which corresponds to the topology of a complete graph. We show that the model with $q \ge…
Hysteresis is studied in a disordered Ising model in which diffusion of antiferromagnetic bonds is allowed in addition to spin flips. Saturation behavior changes to a figure-eight loop when diffusion is introduced. The upper and lower…
Using Monte Carlo simulations we study the Ising model with spin S=1/2 and 1 on {\it directed} and {\it undirected} Erd\"os-R\'enyi (ER) random graphs, with $z$ neighbors for each spin. In the case with spin S=1/2, the {\it undirected} and…
We study the Ising model under a time-varying, but spatially homogeneous, Gaussian random magnetic field. In the Monte Carlo simulations, we go beyond the standard analysis of the order parameter by measuring the magnetization probability…
Systems with quenched disorder possess complex energy landscapes that are challenging to explore under the conventional Monte Carlo method. In this work, we implement an efficient entropy sampling scheme for accurate computation of the…
