Topological order in matrix Ising models

Abstract: We study a family of models for an N 1 × N 2 matrix worth of Ising spins S aB .In the large N i limit we show that the spins soften, so that the partition function is described by a bosonic matrix integral with a single 'spherical' constraint. In this way we generalize the results of [1] to a wide class of Ising Hamiltonians with O(N 1 , Z) × O(N 2 , Z) symmetry. The models can undergo topological large N phase transitions in which the thermal expectation value of the distribution of singular values of the mat… Show more
