Lett", "categories": [ "cond-mat.dis-nn" ], "abstract": "By performing a high-statistics simulation of the $D=4$ random-field Ising model at zero temperature for different shapes of the random-field distribution, we show that the model is ruled by a single universality class. We compute to a high accuracy the complete set of critical exponents for this class, including the correction-to-scaling exponent. Our results indicate that in four dimensions: (i) dimensional reduction as predicted by the perturbative renormalization group does not hold and (ii) three independent critical exponents are needed to described the transition.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-05-17T09:32:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "random-field ising model", "phase transitions", "disordered systems", "dimensions", "single universality class" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
