We study the effects of quenched bond disorder in frustrated easy-plane antiferromagnets in two space dimensions, using a combination of analytical and numerical techniques. We consider local-moment systems which display noncollinear long-range order at zero temperature, with the antiferromagnetic triangular-lattice $XY$ model as a prime example. We show that (i) weak bond disorder transforms the clean ground state into a state with quasi-long-range order, and (ii) strong bond disorder results…

Destabilization of U(1) Dirac spin liquids on two-dimensional nonbipartite lattices by quenched disorder

The stability of the Dirac spin liquid on two-dimensional lattices has long been debated. It was recently demonstrated [Nat. Commun. 10, 4254 (2019) and Phys. Rev. B 93, 144411 (2016)] that the…

Destruction of long-range order in noncollinear two-dimensional antiferromagnets by random-bond disorder

We consider frustrated Heisenberg antiferromagnets, whose clean-limit ground state is characterized by non-collinear long-range order with non-zero vector chirality, and study the effects of quenched…

Glassy Vortex State in a Two-Dimensional Disordered XY-Model

The two-dimensional XY model with random phase shifts on bonds is studied. The analysis is based on a renormalization group for the replicated system. The model is shown to have an ordered phase with…

The equilibrium behavior of vortices in the classical two-dimensional (2D) XY model with uncorrelated random phase shifts is investigated and the critical strength of disorder is found not to be universal, but generally lies in the range of $0 \sigma_c$ does not possess long-range glassy order at any finite temperature.

Multicritical behaviour in the fully frustrated XY model and related systems

We study the phase diagram and critical behaviour of the two-dimensional square-lattice fully frustrated XY model (FFXY) and of two related models, a lattice discretization of the…

We study the antiferromagnetic X Y model on a triangular lattice by extensive Monte Carlo simulations, focusing on its ordering and critical properties. Our result clearly shows that two separate…

We study the two-dimensional XY model with quenched random phases by Monte Carlo simulation and finite-size scaling analysis. We determine the phase diagram of the model and study its critical…

Quasi-long-range order in the 2D XY model with random phase shifts

We study the square-lattice XY model in the presence of random phase shifts. We consider two different disorder distributions with zero average shift and investigate the low-temperature…

We show that trie 2D XY-model with random phase shifts exhibits for low tem- perature and small disorder a phase with quasi-long-range order, and that the transition to trie disordered phase is noi…
