Random bond XXZ chains with modulated couplings

The magnetization behavior of q-periodic antiferromagnetic spin- 1/2 Heisenberg chains under uniform magnetic fields is investigated in a background of disorder exchange distributions. By means of both real space decimation procedures and numerical diagonalizations in XX chains, it is found that for binary disorder the magnetization exhibits wide plateaus at values of 1+2(p-1)/q, where p is the disorder strength. In contrast, no spin gaps are observed in the presence of continuous exchange distributions. We also study the magnetic susceptibility at low magnetic fields.

Diffusion in disordered lattices and related heisenberg ferromagnets

We study the diffusion of classical hard-core particles in disordered lattices within the formalism of a quantum spin representation. This analogy enables an exact treatment of noninstantaneous correlation functions at finite particle densities in terms of single spin excitations in disordered ferromagnetic backgrounds. Applications to diluted chains and percolation clusters are discussed. It is found that density fluctuations in the former exhibit a stretched exponential decay while an anomalous power law asymptotic decay is conjectured for the latter.
