Exact Solutions of the Ising ModelRidderstolpe, Ludwig January 2017 (has links)
This report presents the general Ising model and its basic assumptions. This study aims to, from diagonalization of the Transfer Matrix, obtain the Helmholtz free energy and the exclusion of a phase transition for the one-dimensional Ising model under an external magnetic field. Furthermore from establishing the commutation relations of the Transfer matrices and using the Kramers-Wannier duality one finds the free energy and the presence of a phase transition for the square-lattice Ising model.

Fractional Moments and Singular Field ResponseWollny, Alexander 07 March 2017 (has links) (PDF)
In this PhD thesis, the physics of vacancies in two-dimensional ordered Heisenberg antiferromagnets is investigated. We use semi-classical methods to study the influence of a single vacancy in long-range ordered states, with a focus on non-collinear order. Here, on a classical level, a magnetic distortion is created as the spins readjust in response to the vacancy.
We use the non-collinear $120^\\circ$ state on the frustrated triangular lattice as an example, where we determine the impurity contributions to the magnetization and susceptibility. An important discovery is the vacancy moment not being quantized due to non-universal partial screening. The resulting effective moment $m_0 \\ll S$ can be observed as a fractional prefactor to an impurity-induced Curie response $m_0^2/(3k_BT)$ at finite temperature. This is in sharp contrast to collinearly ordered states. Here the moment is always quantized to the bulk spin value, $m_0=S$.
Furthermore, we present a detailed analysis of the vacancy-induced distortion cloud. Due to Goldstone modes, it decays algebraically as $r^{-3}$ with distance $r$ to the vacancy. Using leading-order $1/S$-expansion, we determine the quantum corrections to both size and direction of the distorted magnetic moments.
Secondly, we study the same problem in the presence of an external magnetic field $h$, both for the square and triangular lattice. For the triangular lattice we use a biquadratic exchange term $K$ to stabilize a unique ground state from a degenerate manifold. The finite-field vacancy moment $m(h)$ is generated by field-dependent screening clouds, as different non-collinear bulk states evolve with increasing field. These distortion clouds decay exponentially on a magnetic length scale $l_h\\propto 1/h$. Most importantly, we find that the magnetic-field linear-response limit $h \\rightarrow 0^+$ is generically singular for $SU(2)$ ordered local-moment antiferromagnets, as the vacancy moment in zero field differs fundamentally from even an infinitesimal but finite field, $m(h \\rightarrow 0^+)\\neq m_0$.
Moreover, a part of the screening cloud itself becomes universally singular. Particularly for spin-flop states, this leads to a semi-classical version of perfect screening. We present general arguments to support these claims, as well as microscopic calculations. Another remarkable result is an impurity-induced quantum phase transition for overcompensated vacancies in the $M=1/3$ plateau phase on the triangular lattice with $K<0$. We close our analysis with a discussion about important limits for finite vacancy concentrations, as well as a possible experimental verification of our predictions.

Análise de experimentos em látice quadrado no melhoramento vegetal utilizando modelos mistos / Analysis of experiments in square lattice in plant breeding using mixed modelsPaulenas, Viviane Panariello 05 October 2016 (has links)
Experimentos conduzidos no delineamento látice ou reticulado são bastante comuns no melhoramento genético vegetal em que diversos materiais genéticos são comparados, principalmente nas etapas iniciais do programa, visando explorar com maior intensidade a variabilidade genética disponível. Em situações de restrições espaciais e financeiras estes delineamentos se destacam por permitir a comparação de todas as progênies em teste estando ou não instaladas no mesmo bloco. O objetivo do trabalho foi a avaliação de testes de progênies de milho (Zea mays L.), em diferentes ambientes para o caráter produção de grãos em t.ha-1. Duzentas e cinquenta e seis progênies foram instaladas em 4 estações experimentais do município de Piracicaba em diferentes anos agrícolas. Os dados de produção de grãos obtidos pelos diferentes ambientes foram analisados de forma individual e conjunta, a fim de verificar presença da interação genótipo × ambiente. O delineamento usado foi, portanto, o látice quadrado 16 × 16, com duas repetições em cada local. Duas abordagens experimentais foram confrontadas, considerando a estrutura de blocos incompletos parcialmente balanceados do látice e a outra em que cada repetição do látice foi analisada como se fosse um bloco completo. Uma maneira de se analisar estruturas experimentais como esta é utilizando modelos mistos, por meio da inclusão de fatores de efeito aleatório e, fazendo o uso da máxima verossimilhança restrita (REML) para estimar os componentes de variância associados a tais fatores com um menor viés. Além dos componentes de variância, os EBLUPs (melhores preditores lineares não viesados empíricos) também foram calculados e a partir deles foi verificada a correlação entre os diferentes ambientes, e a porcentagem de progênies selecionadas comparando-se os resultados obtidos pelas duas abordagens do conjunto de dados. Análises estatísticas foram implementadas utilizando o software gratuito R, com o pacote estatístico lme4. / Experiments conducted in the lattice design are quite common in plant breeding in which several genetic materials are compared, especially in the early stages of the program, aiming to explore more intensively the genetic variability available. In situations of space and financial constraints these designs stand out for allowing the comparison of all progenies being tested whether or not installed in the same block. The aim of the study was the evaluation of maize (Zea mays L.) progeny tests in different environments for grain yield in t.ha-1. Two hundred and fifty six progenies were tested in four experimental stations in the city of Piracicaba, in different agricultural years. Grain production data obtained by different environments were analyzed individually and jointly in order to verify the presence of genotype × environment interaction. Therefore, the square lattice design with dimension 16 × 16 was used with two replications in each location. Two experimental approaches were compared, considering the partially balanced incomplete block structure of the lattice and the other in each repetition of the lattice was analyzed as if it were a complete block. One way to analyze experimental structures like this is with the use of mixed models, by adding random effect factors, and by making use of the restricted maximum likelihood (REML) for estimating the variance components associated with such factors with less bias. Besides the variance components, EBLUPs (empirical best linear predictor unbiased) were also calculated and from them was checked the correlation between the different environments, and the percentage of selected progenies comparing the results obtained by the two assembly approaches data. Statistical analyzes were implemented for the open-souce software R, using the statistical package lme4.

Previous issue date: 2008-07-11 / Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior / Difusive processes are extremely common in Nature. Many complex systems, such as microbial colonies, colloidal aggregates, difusion of fluids, and migration of populations, involve a large number of similar units that form fractal structures. A new model of difusive agregation was proposed recently by Filoche and Sapoval [68]. Based on their work, we develop a model called Difusion with Aggregation and Spontaneous Reorganization . This model consists of a set of particles with excluded volume interactions, which perform random walks on a square lattice. Initially, the lattice is occupied with a density p = N/L2 of particles occupying distinct, randomly chosen positions. One of the particles is selected at random as the active particle. This particle executes a random walk until it visits a site occupied by another particle, j. When this happens, the active particle is rejected back to its previous position (neighboring particle j), and a new active particle is selected at random from the set of N particles. Following an initial transient, the system attains a stationary regime. In this work we study the stationary regime, focusing on scaling properties of the particle distribution, as characterized by the pair correlation function ?(r). The latter is calculated by averaging over a long sequence of configurations generated in the stationary regime, using systems of size 50, 75, 100, 150, . . . , 700. The pair correlation function exhibits distinct behaviors in three diferent density ranges, which we term subcritical, critical, and supercritical. We show that in the subcritical regime, the particle distribution is characterized by a fractal dimension. We also analyze the decay of temporal correlations / Na Natureza ? muito comum ocorrerem processos de difus?o. Muitos sistemas complexos, tais como: col?nias microbianas, agregados coloidais, difus?o de fluidos e migra??es populacionais, s?o compostos de um n?mero muito grande de unidades similares que formam estruturas fractais. Recentemente, um novo estudo destes sistemas foi introduzido por Filoche e Sapoval [68]. Baseado neste trabalho, n?s desenvolvemos um modelo chamado "Difus?o com Agrega??o e Reorganiza??o Espont?nea". Este modelo consiste em um conjunto de part?culas que interagem por meio da exclus?o de volume quando realizam caminhadas aleat?rias em uma rede quadrada. Inicialmente, a rede ? preenchida com uma densidade p = N/L2 de part?culas distribu?das em posi??es distintas escolhidas aleatoriamente. Uma das part?culas ? escolhida ao acaso para se tornar uma part?cula ativa. Esta part?cula executa caminhadas aleat?rias at? visitar um s?tio ocupado por uma part?cula j. Quando a part?cula ativa salta sobre o s?tio ocupado pela part?cula j ? re etida e retorna para a posi??o anterior, e uma nova part?cula ativa ? escolhida aleatoriamente no conjunto de N part?culas contidas na rede. Ap?s um transiente, o sistema alcan?a um regime estacion?rio. Neste trabalho, n?s estudamos este regime estacion?rio, atentando para as propriedades de escala da distribui??o de part?culas que ? caracterizada por uma fun??o de correla??o de pares ?(r). Em seguida, calculamos a m?dia sobre uma sequ?ncia de configura??es geradas nesse regime, usando sistemas de tamanhos L igual a 50, 75, 100, 150, . . . , 700. A fun??o de correla??o de pares exibe comportamentos distintos em tr?s regimes diferentes de densidades, que n?s definimos como regime subcr?tico, cr?tico e supercr?tico. N?s mostramos que no regime subcr?tico, a distribui??o de part?culas ? caracterizada por uma dimens?o fractal. N?s tamb?m analisamos o decaimento das correla??es temporais

Magnetické fáze umělého spinového ledu na čtvercové mřížce / Magnetic phases in an artificial realization of the square ice modelBrunn, Ondřej January 2019 (has links)
Umělé spinové systémy jsou vhodným nástrojem pro zkoumání a ovlivňování neobvyklých exotických nízko-energiových stavů přímo v reálném prostoru. Experimentální realizace těchto systémů jsou založeny na výrobě vzájemně interagujících nano-magnetů uspořádaných do požadované geometrie. Prvním a asi i nejvíce studovaným umělým systémem je prostá čtvercová mřížka. V této práci se zabýváme modifikováním této čtvercové geometrie, které umožní zachycení různých magnetických fází založených na modelech ledu. Výsledky ukazují, že vhodným nastaveném této modifikace lze realizovat různé magnetické fáze, včetně neuspořádané spinové kapalné fáze s uvězněnými magnetickými kvazičásticemi (magnetickými monopóly).
