Disorder induced cross-over effects at quantum critical points.

Critical properties of quantum spin chains with varying degrees of disorder are studied at zero temperature by analytical and extensive density matrix renormalization methods. Generally the phase diagram is found to contain three phases. The weak disorder regime, where the critical behavior is controlled by the fixed points of the pure system, and the strong disorder regime, which is attracted by an infinite randomness fixed point, are separated by an intermediate disorder regime, where dynamical scaling is anisotropic and the static and dynamical exponents are disorder dependent.

Griffiths-McCoy singularities in random quantum spin chains: exact results through renormalization.

The Ma-Dasgupta-Hu renormalization group (RG) scheme is used to study singular quantities in the Griffiths phase of random quantum spin chains. For the random transverse-field Ising spin chain we have extended Fisher's analytical solution to the off-critical region and calculated the dynamical exponent exactly. Concerning other random chains we argue by scaling considerations that the RG method generally becomes asymptotically exact for large times, both at the critical point and in the whole Griffiths phase. This statement is checked via numerical calculations on the random Heisenberg and quantum Potts models by the density matrix renormalization group method.
