We examine the concurrence and entanglement entropy in quantum spin chains with random long-range couplings, spatially decaying with a power-law exponent $alpha$. Using the strong disorder renormalization group (SDRG) technique, we find by analytical solution of the master equation a strong disorder fixed point, characterized by a fixed point distribution of the couplings with a finite dynamical exponent, which describes the system consistently in the regime $alpha > 1/2$. A numerical implementation of the SDRG method yields a power law spatial decay of the average concurrence, which is also confirmed by exact numerical diagonalization. However, we find that the lowest-order SDRG approach is not sufficient to obtain the typical value of the concurrence. We therefore implement a correction scheme which allows us to obtain the leading order corrections to the random singlet state. This approach yields a power-law spatial decay of the typical value of the concurrence, which we derive both by a numerical implementation of the corrections and by analytics. Next, using numerical SDRG, the entanglement entropy (EE) is found to be logarithmically enhanced for all $alpha$, corresponding to a critical behavior with an effective central charge $c = {rm ln} 2$, independent of $alpha$. This is confirmed by an analytical derivation. Using numerical exact diagonalization (ED), we confirm the logarithmic enhancement of the EE and a weak dependence on $alpha$. For a wide range of distances $l$, the EE fits a critical behavior with a central charge close to $c=1$, which is the same as for the clean Haldane-Shastry model with a power-la-decaying interaction with $alpha =2$. Consistent with this observation, we find using ED that the concurrence shows power law decay, albeit with smaller power exponents than obtained by SDRG.

While there are well established methods to study delocalization transitions of single particles in random systems, it remains a challenging problem how to characterize many body delocalization transitions. Here, we use a generalized real-space renor malization group technique to study the anisotropic Heisenberg model with long-range interactions, decaying with a power $alpha$, which are generated by placing spins at random positions along the chain. This method permits a large-scale finite-size scaling analysis. We examine the full distribution function of the excitation energy gap from the ground state and observe a crossover with decreasing $alpha$. At $alpha_c$ the full distribution coincides with a critical function. Thereby, we find strong evidence for the existence of a many body localization transition in disordered antiferromagnetic spin chains with long range interactions.

The influence of substitutional disorder on the magnetic properties of disordered Heisenberg binary spin systems with long-range exchange integrals is studied. The equation of motion for the magnon Greens function which is decoupled by the Tyablikov approximation is solved in the Blackman-Esterling-Berk(BEB) coherent potential approximation(CPA) framework, where the environmental disorder term is treated by virtual crystal approximation. The long-range exchange integrals include a power-law decaying and an oscillating Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida(RKKY) exchange interaction. The resulting spectral density, which is calculated by CPA self-consistent equation, is then used to estimate the magnetization and Curie temperature. The results show, in the case of the three-dimensional simple cubic systems, a strong influence of ferromagnetic long-range exchange integrals on the magnetization and Curie temperature of the systems, which is obviously different from the calculation of short-range interaction.
Using a numerically exact technique we study spin transport and the evolution of spin-density excitation profiles in a disordered spin-chain with long-range interactions, decaying as a power-law, $r^{-alpha}$ with distance and $alpha<2$. Our study co nfirms the prediction of recent theories that the system is delocalized in this parameters regime. Moreover we find that for $alpha>3/2$ the underlying transport is diffusive with a transient super-diffusive tail, similarly to the situation in clean long-range systems. We generalize the Griffiths picture to long-range systems and show that it captures the essential properties of the exact dynamics.
We study a generalized quantum spin ladder with staggered long range interactions that decay as a power-law with exponent $alpha$. Using the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method and exact diagonalization, we show that this model undergo es a transition from a rung-dimer phase characterized by a non-local string order parameter, to a symmetry broken Neel phase at $alpha_csim 2.1$. We find evidence that the transition is second order with a dynamic critical exponent $z=1$ and $ uapprox 1.2$. In the magnetically ordered phase, the spectrum exhibits gapless modes, while excitations in the gapped phase are well described in terms of triplons -- bound states of spinons across the legs. We obtained the momentum resolved spin dynamic structure factor numerically and found that the triplon band is well defined at high energies and adiabatically connected to the magnon dispersion. However, at low energies it emerges as the lower edge of continuum of excitations that shifts to high energies across the transition. We further discuss the possibility of deconfined criticality in this model.

Methods for understanding classical disordered spin systems with interactions conforming to some idealized graphical structure are well developed. The equilibrium properties of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, which has a densely connected structur e, have become well understood. Many features generalize to sparse Erdos-Renyi graph structures above the percolation threshold, and to Bethe lattices when appropriate boundary conditions apply. In this paper we consider spin states subject to a combination of sparse strong interactions with weak dense interactions, which we term a composite model. The equilibrium properties are examined through the replica method, with exact analysis of the high temperature paramagnetic, spin glass and ferromagnetic phases by perturbative schemes. We present results of a replica symmetric variational approximations where perturbative approaches fail at lower temperature. Results demonstrate novel reentrant behaviors from spin glass to ferromagnetic phases as temperature is lowered, including transitions from replica symmetry broken to replica symmetric phases. The nature of high temperature transitions is found to be sensitive to the connectivity profile in the sparse sub-graph, with regular connectivity a discontinuous transition from the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phases is apparent.
