Dynamics of relaxor ferroelectrics
We study a dynamic model of relaxor ferroelectrics based on the spherical
random-bond---random-field model and the Langevin equations of motion. The
solution to these equations is obtained in the long-time limit where the system
reaches an equilibrium state in the presence of random local electric fields.
The complex dynamic linear and third-order nonlinear susceptibilities
and , respectively, are calculated as
functions of frequency and temperature. In analogy with the static case, the
dynamic model predicts a narrow frequency dependent peak in ,
which mimics a transition into a glass-like state.Comment: 15 pages, Revtex plus 5 eps figure

Classical transverse Ising spin glass with short- range interaction beyond the mean field approximation
The classical transverse field Ising spin- glass model with short-range
interactions is investigated beyond the mean- field approximation for a real d-
dimensional lattice. We use an appropriate nontrivial modification of the
Bethe- Peierls method recently formulated for the Ising spin- glass. The zero-
temperature critical value of the transverse field and the linear
susceptibility in the paramagnetic phase are obtained analytically as functions
of dimensionality d. The phase diagram is also calculated numerically for
different values of d. In the limit d -> infinity, known mean- field results
are consistently reproduced.Comment: LaTex, 11 pages, 2 figure
