We show, that the 2D XY-model with random phase shifts exhibits for low temperature and small disorder a phase with quasi-long-range order, and that the transition to the disordered phase is {\it not} reentrant. These results are obtained…
The exact determination of ground states of small systems is used in a scaling study of the random-field Ising model. While three variants of the model are found to be in the same universality class in 3 dimensions, the Gaussian and bimodal…
We have performed studies of the 3D random field $XY$ model on $L \times L \times L$ simple cubic lattices with periodic boundary conditions, with a random field strength of $h_r$ = 1.875, for $L =$ 64, 96 and 128, using a parallelized…
This work explores the possibilities of the Gibbs-Bogoliubov-Feynman variational method, aiming at finding room for designing various drawing schemes. For example, mean-field approximation can be viewed as a result of using site-independent…
We study random-field xy spin model at T=0 numerically on lattices of up to 1000 x 1000 x 1000 spins with the accent on the weak random field. Our numerical method is physically equivalent to slow cooling in which the system is gradually…

The systematic approach for the off-perturbative calculations in disordered systems is developed. The proposed scheme is applied for the random temperature and the random field ferromagnetic Ising models. It is shown that away from the…
This paper introduces a new framework to study the asymptotical behavior of the empirical distribution function (e.d.f.) of Gaussian vector components, whose correlation matrix $\Gamma^{(m)}$ is dimension-dependent. Hence, by contrast with…
Consider the classical XY model in a weak random external field pointing along the $Y$ axis with strength $\epsilon$. We study the behavior of this model as the range of the interaction is varied. We prove that in any dimension $d \geq 2$…
We present a study of the influence of different types of disorder on systems in the Ising universality class by employing both a dynamical field theory approach and extensive Monte Carlo simulations. We reproduce some well known results…
Previous studies on the generalized XY model have concentrated on the equilibrium phase diagram and the equilibrium nature of distinct phases under varying parameter conditions. We direct our attention towards examining the systems…
A method for calculating the short-range order part of the free energy of order-disorder systems is proposed. The method is based on the apllication of the cumulant expansion to the exact configurational entropy. Second-order correlation…
We study the configurations of the nearest neighbor Ising ferromagnetic chain with IID centered and square integrable external random field in the limit in which the pairwise interaction tends to infinity. The available free energy…

A variational method that allows for replica-symmetry breaking is applied to directed polymers in an (N+1)-dimensional disordered medium. The noise studied here has gaussian correlations, i.e. it is short-ranged. In dimensions N<2, the…
