Monte Carlo study of the spin-glass phase of the site-diluted dipolar Ising model
By tempered Monte Carlo simulations, we study site-diluted Ising systems of
magnetic dipoles. All dipoles are randomly placed on a fraction x of all L^3
sites of a simple cubic lattice, and point along a given crystalline axis. For
x_c< x<=1, where x_c = 0.65, we find an antiferromagnetic phase below a
temperature which vanishes as x tends to x_c from above. At lower values of x,
we find an equilibrium spin-glass (SG) phase below a temperature given by k_B
T_{sg} = x e_d, where e_d is a nearest neighbor dipole-dipole interaction
energy. We study (a) the relative mean square deviation D_q^2 of |q|, where q
is the SG overlap parameter, and (b) xi_L/L, where xi_L is a correlation
length. From their variation with temperature and system size, we determine
T_{sg}. In the SG phase, we find (i) the mean values and decrease
algebraically with L as L increases, (ii) double peaked, but wide,
distributions of q/ appear to be independent of L, and (iii) xi_L/L rises
with L at constant T, but extrapolations to 1/L -> 0 give finite values. All of
this is consistent with quasi-long-range order in the SG phase.Comment: 15 LaTeX pages, 15 figures, 3 tables. (typos fixed in Appendix A

Time relaxation of interacting single--molecule magnets
We study the relaxation of interacting single--molecule magnets (SMMs) in
both spatially ordered and disordered systems. The tunneling window is assumed
to be, as in Fe8, much narrower than the dipolar field spread. We show that
relaxation in disordered systems differs qualitatively from relaxation in fully
occupied cubic and Fe_8 lattices. We also study how line shapes that develop in
''hole--digging'' experiments evolve with time t in these fully occupied
lattices. We show (1) that the dipolar field h scales as t^p in these hole line
shapes and show (2) how p varies with lattice structure. Line shapes are not,
in general, Lorentzian. More specifically, in the lower portion of the hole,
they behave as (h/t^p)^{(1/p)-1} if h is outside the tunnel window. This is in
agreement with experiment and with our own Monte Carlo results.Comment: 21 LaTeX pages, 6 eps figures. Submitted to PRB on 15 June 2005.

The group of strong Galois objects associated to a cocommutative Hopf quasigroup
Let H be a cocommutative faithfully flat Hopf quasigroup in a strict
symmetric monoidal category with equalizers. In this paper we introduce the
notion of (strong) Galois H-object and we prove that the set of isomorphism
classes of (strong) Galois H-objects is a (group) monoid which coincides, in
the Hopf algebra setting, with the Galois group of H-Galois objects introduced
by Chase and Sweedler
