| Title | Statistical transfer matrix of a spin-glass ladder |
| Date | 1999 |
| Description | This work concerns the Edwards-Anderson Ising model of a spin ladder, in which random bonds +_J connect nearest-neighbor Ising spins. We calculate the exact free energy of the quenched, frustrated, spin-glass-like ladder as an integral over a probability distribution P(x), the eigenfunction of a statistical transfer matrix. Our approach takes advantage of the statistical homogeneity of the spin glass. |
