Abstract:The properties of the ground state of one of the simplest models of frustrated magnetic systems, a dilute Ising chain in a magnetic field, are considered for all values of the concentration of charged non-magnetic impurities. An analytical method is proposed for calculating the residual entropy of frustrated states, including states at the boundaries between the phases of the ground state, which is based on the Markov property of the system under consideration and allows direct generalization to other one-dime… Show more
