Analytic results obtained by Ney-Niftle et al for the same model were confirmed for asymptotically large lattices, while the approach to the asymptotic limit is slow and sometimes even non-monotonic. Attention is called to the occurrence of the SO(2)-Z_2 decoupling and its masking in spin correlations, the latter reflecting the inequality between the SO(2) and Z_2 exponents. Discussion is given concerning the behaviors of the higher-dimensional models.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-03-06T19:55:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "xy spin-glass ladder", "numerical study", "xy spin glass", "two-leg ladder lattice", "domain-wall energy" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
