Abstract: | A random bond Ising model is considered in terms of the pair approximation, which is equivalent to the Bethe approximation, of the cluster variation method. On taking the configurational average over the random distribution of bonds ±J, we take into account the nearest neighbor correlations between effective fields and bonds. We investigate their effects to the phase transition temperature from the paramagnetic phase to the ferro- (or antiferro-) magnetic phase and to the spin glass phase for the Ising model on the square lattice. It turns out that the correlation effects act favorably to the spin glass phase and bend upward the line of transition temperature from the paramagnetic phase to the spin glass phase as the concentration being apart from 0.5. In the appendix, we derive the expression of free energy in the weak interaction limit. |
