Abstract
Using the zero-temperature Metropolis dynamics, the time decay of the remanent magnetization in the +/-J Edward-Anderson spin glass model with a uniform random distribution of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions has been investigated. Starting from the saturation, the magnetization per spin m reveals a slow decrease with time, which can be approximated by a power law: m(t)=m(infinity)+(t/a(0))(a(1)), a(1)<0. Moreover, its relaxation does not lead it into one of the ground states, and therefore the system is trapped in metastable isoenergetic microstates remaining magnetized. Such behavior is discussed in terms of a random walk that the system performs on its available configuration space.Year: 2001 PMID: 11415177 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevE.63.066111
