(Received August 8, 1986)

The dynamical mean field theory of spin glasses is investigated in systems with non-zero mean

of the infinitely-ranged random exchange interactions under uniform but alternating external

magnetic fields. A perturbational expansion with respect to the interaction uCJ;4 introduced in a

soft-spin version of the model is analyzed by means of the diagrammatic method. Restricting

ourselves to its lowest order (single-loop) approximation, we examine relaxational dynamics of the

model spin glass and clarify nature of its phase transition in the presence of an ac external field.

The results provide a new clue to ac nonlinear measurements on spin glasses.

§ 1. Introduction

191

There has been much progress recently in study of the mean field theory of spin glasses provided by the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model. 1

Thermodynamic properties described by the mean field theory are qualitatively in good agreement with those observed experimentally in various spin glasses. Of most impor­tance among them is the existence of thermodynamic phase transition at a finite tempera­ture. This has been also confirmed recently by the huge computer simulation on three­dimensional Ising spin glasses with nearest-neighbor interactions.9

It is then of interest to examine dynamical properties of spin glasses by the same footing, i.e., by the dynamical mean .field theory. In particular, the investigation of dynamical instability will further clarify nature of the spin-glass phase transition. Actually much work has been already performed along this line.11

the present problem the perturbational expansion with respect to the interaction uc5i4

introduced in a soft-spin version of the model is employed. In the mean field limit (i.e., for infinitely-ranged spin glasses), we obtain a set of self-consistent equations for the averaged magnetization, correlation function and generalized response function, which are generat­ed by the averaged generating functional.

In the present paper we extend this final procedure so as to include a case with random exchange interactions with non-zero mean, and as to be able to examine nonlinear responses on ac fields. The latter extension is required to interpret appropriately results of the ac nonlinear measurementwhich is a powerful experimental method to investigate critical dynamics of spin glasses.24

l We discuss structure of the perturbational expan­sions of the three functions mentioned above. If all the terms can be evaluated, we can go back to the original Ising SK spin glass by the proper limiting procedure. Under ac fields, however, explicit evaluation is limited only to the lowest order terms with respect to the interaction uai4

• In this sense we have to say that we study dynamical properties of an infinitely-ranged soft spin glass, but some of the results obtained here are thought to be common to real spin glasses. An interesting result among them is the phase-transition behavior under an ac field as briefly reported elsewhere.25

l

This paper is organized as follows: We derive a set of the self-consistent equations for the generalized response function, the correlation function and the magnetization in § 2. Most part of this section is a review of the SZ dynamical mean field theory. Some mathematics not described explicitly in the SZ paper are presented in Appendices. In § 3 the systematic perturbational analysis is presented, and dynamical properties of the soft spin glass under ac fields are examined explicitly in § 4. The corresponding analysis on a ferromagnet is briefly described in Appendix C. In § 5 we discuss the results obtained in connection with ac nonlinear experiments on spin glasses.

§ 2. Dynamical mean field theory

The SK Hamiltonian for Ising spins Si= ± 1 is

H=- ~ !uSiSj, (2·1) (iJ)

where < ij) covers all the spin pairs. The exchange interactions !u are independent random variables with a Gaussian distribution

(2·2)

N being the total number of spins. In order to examine dynamical properties of spin glasses, we consider a soft-spin version of the SK model defined by

(2·3)

where /3=1/T (ks=1). The soft spin ai is allowed to vary continuously from -oo to +oo. The model with fixed spin length is recovered from Eq. (2·3) in the limit ro~ -oo and u ~ + oo, such that their ratio remains finite.

To study relaxational dynamics of the model spin glass, the following

and is ensured by the last term in Eq. (2·11). This term arising from the functional Jacobian also ensures the causality of the response as described in Appendix B.

Because of Zo=1 the average of Eqs. (2·12)"'(2·14) with respect to lii (indicated by [ J1) is performed only over their numerator. More generally the Iii-average of any noise-averaged (multi-) product of cJi(t) and/or 6j(t') is generated by the averaged functional Z{l, l}-[Z1{l, [}]J. The average is easily done since lii are involved only in the exponential form exp{if3fii6i(t)rJj(t)} in ZJ{l, l}. This circumstance is the same as in the replica method.3

l The averaged generating functional Z{l, [} is given by

Z{l, [}-f <g> [d]ijP(!u)]Z1{l, [}

The formulation up to here is in fact not restricted to the infinitely-ranged (SK) spin glass. A great advantage of the latter is in the fact that Eq. (2 ·15) can be further simplified to a one-site problem by introducing auxiliary variables Qa(t, t') and Mp(t), a=1"'4, and /3=1, 2:

Z{l, [}= jfDQafDMpexp[- J~2jdtdt'{Q1Ct, t')Q2Ct, t')+Q3(t, t')Q4(t, t')}

The integrals over Qa and MP are evaluated by the steepest descent, which is exact in the thermodynamic limit (N ~ oo ). The saddle point equations in the leading order with respect to N-1 are:

The last equality in the above equations holds true under a homogeneous field hi(t)=h(t), and Cii, Gii and mi become independent of the site i. It should be noted that we put

Q25P(t, t')cx( 6i(t) 6i(t'))=Q,

M25P(t)cx( 6 i(t)>=O.

The reason for this is briefly mentioned in Appendix B.

In the case under homogeneous fields we thus end up with the foLlowing one-site generating functional:

(2. 25)

(2. 26)

The functions m(t), C(t, t') and G(t, t') are given by similar functional derivatives to Eqs. (2 ·12) '"'"'(2 ·14). In Appendix B we evaluate explicitly these functional derivatives and show that the dynamical pr.oblem of interest is described by the following modified Langevin equation for CJ(t) (which corresponds to the extremum condition of Lane{CJ, 6; l = r =0} with respect to i 6(t)):

where ¢(t) is the modified noise with zero mean and variance

(2. 27)

(2. 28)

As compared with the original Langevin equations (2 · 4) '"'"'(2 · 6), the average over fu

introduces modifications both in the bare propagator (Go(t, t') defined by Eq. (2·27)) and in the Gaussian noise (Eq. (2 · 28) ). These equations are self-consistently coupled since the generating functional is evaluated by the steepest descent, i.e., within the mean field theory.

§ 3. Perturbational expansion

The equation of motion (2 · 27) for a(t) in the frequency representation is written as

where

(Go -'1 )wwr = g ( w- w')( ro- iw)- jjz G( w, w') ,

g( w) = (Jh( w) +/31om( w)

(3· 2)

(3·3)

with the abbreviations fw=fdw/2Jr, B(w)=2Jro(w), w=w/To and jj=(J]. Similarly Eq. (2 · 28) is written as

< ¢( w) ¢( w') > = A g ( w + w') + jjz C( w, w')- A <ol( w, w') . (3·4)

To solve Eq. (3 ·1) iteratively, i.e., perturbatively with respect to u, we adopt a diagram­matic method with the following symbols:

=: CJ(cv)' ~ : Go( cv, cv') , I : g(cv)

<l : ¢(cv) ' • : - u/ 2 , o : < ¢ ( cv) ¢ ( cv') > .

For example, Eq. (3·1) is represented by

==~+

In the absence of ac fields the time-translational in variance is recovered ( G( w, w') ex: 8(w- w') and C(w, w')cx: 8(w+ w')). If the de field and ]o are also absent (i.e., g(w)=O), we obtain the following set of self-consistent equations:

We note that the fourth term in Eq. (3 ·14) is an example of terms which involve the second term of the 3rd order vertex (Eq. (3·9)).

From inspection of the above equations we notice the following way to employ the m(w) terms. The rules are to replace (i) each G(w) in Eqs. (3·6)"-'(3·9) by the full propagator G( w, w') and (ii) each C( w) by the full correlation function C( w, w'). In rule (ii), however, the following cautions are required. The function C(w, w') consists of C(w, w') of Eq. (3·13) and m(w)m(w'). Each C(w) has to be replaced by C\w, w'), but not necessarily by m(w)m(w'). Two C attached to one interaction vertex have not to be replaced by mm at the same time, since there remains by this procedure a part of a reducible propagator with the self-energy part of the first term in Eq. (3 ·12). Also more than one C connecting the two vertex parts in Eq. (3·8) have not to be replaced by mm, since this procedure on a term with n-th vertex yields one term of GAG with (n-2)-th vertex already counted. At the moment we have not yet succeeded to express these rules in certain mathematical formulae. But as for lowest order contributions (up to O(u3

)),

we obtain the following formulae for the full propagator G(w, w')

Thus we end up with the set of self-consistent equations for G(co, co'), C(co, co') and m(co)

M'R in these equations are given by Eqs. (3 ·16), (3 ·17) and (3 ·19) (and the first term of

(3·20)), respectively. We note that there exists another equation (3·2), which relates Go

with the full propagator G.

In this section we solve the set of self-consistent equations for the response function G( co, co'), the correlation function C( co, co') and the magnetization m( co) derived in § 3

within the leading order in the interaction u, i.e., within the single-loop approximation.

Even in this simplest approximated scheme it is rather complicated to obtain solutions

explicitly if the nonlinear effect of external ac fields is properly taken into account.

h ( W) = h 0 J ( W) + hac[ J ( W- lJ) + B ( W + lJ)] . (4 ·4)

Then generally there appear components of the magnetization mnv which are proportional to hftcexp(invt) with Ill~ I nl for any integer n. Correspondingly G(w, a/) and C(w, w') take the following forms:

The term proportional to J(w-w') or J(w+w') represents the time-translationally­invariant (TTl) part of the function G(t, t') or C(t, t'), in which the nonlinear effect of the ac field is partially involved. The remaining terms oG and oC represent the non-time­translationally-invariant (NTTI) parts induced by the ac field. The substitution of the above equations into Eqs.

In the present work we restrict ourselves to the terms up to the order of fi~c( fi~c) in evaluating G(w, w') and C(w, w') (m(w)). Below we further restrict ourselves to the case with !o=O and ho=O, i.e., a pure (soft) spin glass without a static field. 25

l In Appendix C, a pure ferromagnet (! =0) is briefly discussed. More general cases (! =1=0, ]o=I=O and ho=I=O) will be examined elsewhere.

For the pure spin glass with ho=O, the static magnetization mo does not appear, and the leading order terms in Eqs. ( 4 · 5') and ( 4 · 6') are oG( w; + 2 v) and oC( w; + 2 v) which are proportional to h~c. Therefore up to 0( h~c) Eq. ( 4 ·1) is simplified as

The integration with a prime in the third term indicates that the contribution -(3u/2)J w,m(wi)m(- w1)m(w) has to be subtracted from the integration, because it is already counted to obtain G( w) instead of Go( w) in Eq. ( 4 ·17) through Eq. (4 · 7). Since the last three terms in Eq. (4 ·17) do then not involve terms linearly proportional to m(w), G(w) represents the linear response of the system against a probing field with frequency w in the presence of the ac field of Eq. (4 ·4).

The TTl parts, Eqs. ( 4 · 7) and ( 4 ·12), are solved by putting C( w) in the form

The response function G( w) is identical to its counterpart in the unperturbed (spher­ical) limit, Eq. (B o12) in Appendix B, if the parameter ro in the latter is replaced by r -ro+3uCo/2. This replacement is physically irrelevant since r (or ro in the spherical limit) is written in terms of Co(=1), q and Cv by means ofEq. (4o19). Since C(w) is also identical to its spherical limit, properties derived from the TTl parts of G( w, w') and C( w, w') within the single-loop approximation are common to the spherical spin glass.26

Next we consider the NTTI parts oG(w; +2v) and oC(w; ±2v). From inspection of Eqs. (4·13)"'(4o16) and (4·18), we put oC(w; +2v) in the form

§ 5. Discussion

We have reexamined the dynamical mean field theory of spin glasses in order to apply it to ac nonlinear phenomena. Within the single-loop approximation with respect to the interaction UCJi

4 introduced in the soft spin version of the SK spin glass model we have explicitly investigated relaxational dynamics of spins near the phase transition point. For comparison the corresponding argument for a ferromagnet is presented in Appendix C.

One of the most important results is that the transition temperature Tc is lowered by an ac external field of frequency v as described by Eq. ( 4 · 22) for the spin glass and by Eq. (C·7) for the ferromagnet. It is emphasized here that, even in the presence of the ac field, Tc is well-defined by the instability of the paramagnetic phase (e.g., divergence of r of Eq. (4·23)) as well as by an occurrence of a static order parameter q or mo below Tc. But the responses to the ac field of frequency v(>O) itself are not divergent at Tc. In the spin glass the nonlinear susceptibility x(3v) is bounded proportionally to -v-112 (Eq. (4·36b)). The nonlinear responses of the ferromagnet are summarized on Table I. The instability mentioned above can be observed in principle by additional probing field with infinitesimal amplitude in the static limit.

The fact that the shift of Tc vanishes in the limit v-HX) is simply because spins cannot follow such rapidly changing field, i.e., they do not feel the field. For the :ferromagnet we

can see from Eq. (C·3) that 2lmvl2 induced by the ac field plays the same role as mo2,

namely, the effectively frozen (to the ac field) component of spins which do not respond

even to the mutual exchange field. This explains the shift of Te given by Eq. (C· 7). For

the spin glass the corresponding frozen (non-responding) component of spins is represent­

ed by Cv in Eq. (4 ·19). The different behavior of Cv from that of 2lmvl2 in the fer­

romagnet comes out from two origins. One is that in the critical region G(w)- G(O) is

proportional to w112 (w) for the spin glass (ferromagnet). The other is that the general­

ized susceptibility conjugate to the freezing parameter q is not G(w) but essentially @(w) =@(w, -w) of Eq. (4·11). These explain the shift of Te given by Eq. (4·22).

The phase diagram specified by Eq. (4·22) is shown in Fig. 1. In the limit v~o the

spin glass phase disappears if the amplitude of the field remains finite. This corresponds

to vanishing of the phase transition in the spherical spin glass under a static field. 26)'27)

We know, on the other hand, that the spin glass phase of the SK Ising spin glass is not

broken by a static field below the AT line28) drawn by the chain line in Fig. 1. To clarify

the relation between the AT line and the static limit of the ac nonlinear effects investigat­

ed in the present work we have to go beyond the single-loop approximation, at least up to

O(u2) where a critical line corresponding to the AT line can be reproduced under a static

field. 19) Such higher order analysis is also required to confirm that the new critical line

given by Eq. ( 4 · 22) is not restricted to the spherical spin glass. Since, however, the

critical line is concave the higher order effects in u are shown to be not crucial so long as

h~e is sufficiently small. We therefore expect that the new critical line predicted in this

work is common to the SK Ising spin glass and even to real spin glasses. In fact x(3v) of

(Ti1-x V x)z03 measured by Chikazawa et al.24) exhibits the higher peak at the lower

temperature under the measuring field with the lower frequency. This behavior agrees

qualitatively with the results obtained in the present work.

Finally we note that the present analy­ses differs from those analyses such as by Togashi and Suzuki17) in the following respect. In the latter the system is con­sidered to be driven by an ac field along the free energy surfa<:e which is determined without the ac field. In particular below Teo- Te(hae=O), even in its very vicinity, the system is supposed to oscillate around one of the minima of the symmetry-broken free energy. In the present work, on the other hand, we consider that the ac field with finite amplitude hinders occurrence of the ordered state, and that the (replica) symmetry breaking in the free energy sur­face (and so a finite q) appears only below Te(hae) < Teo. For quantitative arguments on the present results we have to specify an explicit value of To which has not yet been well examined. As for dynamical

Further investigations are certainly required to clarify dynamical nature, including ac nonlinear properties, of the spin glass transition.

and so (!).A is retarded (i.e., it is a similar triangular matrix with respect to the t-space). Therefore the magnitude of (( (!). A)k)PP is of the order of unity and so the expansion in Eq. (A·6) terminates at k=1 in the limit Llt~o. Thus we obtain finally

]{o}= C exp{--: IOLltTr( (!).A)}

= C exp{- a!O jdt Tr'( ~! (t))}, (A·7)

where Tr' indicates the trace in the site-space. With a=1/2, Eq. (A·7) is identical to the corresponding term in Eqs. (2·10) and (2·11). It is noted that within the present argument the constant a originates from Eq. (A· 2), namely, how we discretize the t-space. Its value can be arbitrary so long as 0 <a< 1, but the same value has to be used when we specify the equal-time response function as in Eq. (B·14) in Appendix B.

Now we present a brief argument that a=b=1/2 has to be taken in Eq. (A·2).29l Let

us consider the following conditional probability function,

P(6p+t, tp+tl6p, tp)= JZL1t<o(l0- 1[6p+l- 6p]- Llt[aKp+l + bKp] -'YJp)>l]

(A·8)

where we have used the fact that 'Y)p is a Gaussian random variable with variance <7Jp• 'Y)pr) =2ro- 1Lltopv1, which is easily seen from Eqs. (A·3) and (2·6). Equation (A·8) is valid for the linear order in Llt. The normalization constant Jl Llt is fixed by the condition

jdNOP+lP(6p+l, tP+ll6p, tp)=1.

We impose that the conditional probability function bears the Markov property, i.e., it satisfies the Chapman-Kolmogorov equation

(A·9)

The substitution of Eq. (A·8) into the r.h.s. of Eq. (A·9) yields P(6p+2, tp+216p, tp). The condition a=b=1/2 follows from the requirement that this P(6P+2, tP+216p, tp) has to be identical to Eq. (A· 8) with the replacements Llt ~ 2Llt, f-L + 1 ~ f-L + 2. Note that the func­tional Jacobian ]{o} is also obtained from Eq. (A·9) by

(B·14)

In order to explain typical features of the perturbative expansion with respect to Lint, let us consider the first order correction to m(t). Making use of the fact that exp(L<0>{l = [ =0}) is a Gaussian weight, we obtain

B<m(t))<1lcx ~ jdt'jfD6fD 8[ -G0<0>(t, t')63(t')

-6C<0>(t, t')Go<0>(t', t')6(t')+3JOC<0>(t, t')6(t')]exp(L<0>{l= l =0}). (B·15)

Because of Eq. (B ·14) the last two terms in Eq. (B ·15) cancel exactly with each other . . This type of cancellation occurs in every order of the expansion. In other words, in perturbational analysis Lint of Eq. (B · 3) has to be reread as

(B·16)

where t indicates any other external or interaction vertex, with which 6(t) associates. This exactly corresponds to the role of the last term in r.h.s. of Eq. (2 · 27) or (3 ·1).

By means of the causality of the unperturbed response function, Eq. (B·13), as well as the cancellation between terms with Go<0>(t, t) and those from the functional Jacobian ]{6}, the causality of the true response function G(t, t') is ensured. Also we can see Eqs. (2·23) and (2 · 24) hold true, which tells that they are in fact one of the self-consistent solutions for the entire generating functional of Eq. (2·18). If we apply the above perturbational argument on Z1 {l, [}, i.e., before averaging over ]u, we still obtain < 8 i(t)>=O and < 8i(t) 8it')>=O, because the structures of L{6, 8} of Eq.

Appendix C -- Relaxational Dynamics of Ferromagnets --

Here we solve Eqs. (4·1)"'(4·3) in the text for a ferromagnetic case (]=0). In this case the self-consistent conditions originated from the average over lu disappear so that Go(w) is simply given by (ro-i&)-t, and C(w, w') is written in terms of G(w, w') and m( w )m( w'). The self-consistency is required in determining G( w, w') and m( w ). In the present case, Eq. (A· 7) is reduced to

c- 1(w)+G-2(w)~oG(w; +v)G-1(w+v)oG(w+v; +v)=Go-1(w)+ ~ uCo, (C·1)

where

oG(w; +v)=-3uG(w)G(w+v){mom=t=v+ !wi G(w1)oG(-w1+v; +v)

+ fci]J oG(wl; + v)G(- Wl + v)}

= -3uG(w)G(w+ v)D±Lmom+v (C·2)

with D±v=1 +6uf w!G(w)I 2 G(w+ v). Because of the second term in the l.h.s. of Eq. (C·1) and the corresponding modification in C(w, w'), G(O) is now related to the equal time correlation Co as

where

with l!f(w, v)= G(w+ v)+ G(w- v). From Eq. (4·3), on the other hand, the linear response magnetization m(w) with w=FO, + v is given by

while the uniform magnetization mo by

The above GA w) involves the uniform part of ]u, i.e., ]o, and is given by

Finally we make a comment on the structure of the present mean field theory. By definition represented by Eqs. (2·19)'""'(2·21), G(t, t') and C(t, t') in the theory are all site-diagonal and only their leading order with respect to N-1 are kept. Therefore G(w) or C(w) obtained above is not singular at Tc. Usually, on the other hand, the fer­romagnetic instability is described by such quantities as N- 1~iJGu(t,t') and N-1~iJCiJ(t,

t'). To analyze them we have to take into account quantities which are smaller by the order of N-1 than those investigated here. In the present theory the ferromagnetic instability is described only through the magnetization, which is the first derivative of the generating functional.
