Spin-One p-Spin Glass: Exact Solution for Large p

Аннотация

We study the low-temperature properties of the p-spin spin glass model in the spin-one (three-state) case for large values of p. We show that the one-step replica symmetry-breaking phase is unstable at a very low temperature, and we calculate the explicit boundary of the stability interval, the Gardner temperature, analytically for large values of p. This temperature for the spin-one model has the same form of dependence on p as in the case of Ising spins (two states). In the one-step replica symmetrybreaking state, a quadrupolar orientational glass coexists with the spin glass and also with a regular quadrupole ordering.
