We investigate magnetic properties of a two-dimensional periodic structure with Ising spins and antiferromagnetic nearest neighbor interaction. The structure is topologically equivalent to the Archimedean (3,12^2) lattice. The ground state…
The vortex glass model for a disordered high-T_c superconductor in an external magnetic field is studied in the strong screening limit. With exact ground state (i.e. T=0) calculations we show that 1) the ground state of the vortex…
We examine the spin-$S$ quantum Heisenberg magnet with Gaussian-random, infinite-range exchange interactions. The quantum-disordered phase is accessed by generalizing to $SU(M)$ symmetry and studying the large $M$ limit. For large $S$ the…
Hysteresis loops are obtained in the Ising spin-glass phase in d=3, using frustration-conserving hard-spin mean-field theory. The system is driven by a time-dependent random magnetic field H_Q that is conjugate to the spin-glass order Q,…

We examine the phase diagram of the $p$-spin mean field glass model in the spin one case, that is when $S=0,+1,-1$. For large $p$ the model is solved exactly. The analysis reveals that the phase diagram is in some way similar to that of…
