Recently measurements on various spin-1/2 quantum magnets such as H$_3$LiIr$_2$O$_6$, LiZn$_2$Mo$_3$O$_8$, ZnCu$_3$(OH)$_6$Cl$_2$ and 1T-TaS$_2$ -- all described by magnetic frustration and quenched disorder but with no other common relation -- nevertheless showed apparently universal scaling features at low temperature. In particular the heat capacity C[H,T] in temperature T and magnetic field H exhibits T/H data collapse reminiscent of scaling near a critical point. Here we propose a theory for this scaling collapse based on an emergent random-singlet regime extended to include spin-orbit coupling and antisymmetric Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interactions. We derive the scaling $C[H,T]/T sim H^{-gamma} F_q[T/H]$ with $F_q[x] = x^{q}$ at small $x$, with $q in$ (0,1,2) an integer exponent whose value depends on spatial symmetries. The agreement with experiments indicates that a fraction of spins form random valence bonds and that these are surrounded by a quantum paramagnetic phase. We also discuss distinct scaling for magnetization with a $q$-dependent subdominant term enforced by Maxwells relations.

Despite the enormous interest in quantum spin liquids, their experimental existence still awaits broad consensus. In particular, quenched disorder may turn a specific system into a spin glass and possibly preclude the formation of a quantum spin liqu
id. Here, we demonstrate that the glass transition among geometrically frustrated magnets, a materials class in which spin liquids are expected, differs qualitatively from conventional spin glass. Whereas conventional systems have a glass temperature that increases with increasing disorder, geometrically frustrated systems have a glass temperature that increases with decreasing disorder, approaching, in the clean limit, a finite value. This behaviour implies the existence of a hidden energy scale (far smaller than the Weiss constant) which is independent of disorder and drives the glass transition in the presence of disorder. Motivated by these observations, we propose a scenario in which the interplay of interactions and entropy in the disorder-free system yields a temperature-dependent magnetic permeability with a crossover temperature that determines the hidden energy scale. The relevance of this scale for quantum spin liquids is discussed.
We investigate properties of a spin-1 Heisenberg model with extended and biquadratic interactions, which captures crucial aspects of the low energy physics in FeSe. While we show that the model exhibits a rich phase diagram with four different magnet
ic ordering tendencies, we identify a parameter regime with strong competition between N`eel, staggered dimer, and stripe-like magnetic fluctuations, accounting for the physical properties of FeSe. Through the comparison of numerically evaluated spin and Raman response with experiments, we find evidence for enhanced magnetic frustration between N`eel and co-linear stripe ordering tendencies, which increases with increasing temperature. The explanation of these spectral behaviors with this frustrated spin model supports the idea of local spin interactions in FeSe.
We study numerically the charge conductance distributions of disordered quantum spin-Hall (QSH) systems using a quantum network model. We have found that the conductance distribution at the metal-QSH insulator transition is clearly different from tha
t at the metal-ordinary insulator transition. Thus the critical conductance distribution is sensitive not only to the boundary condition but also to the presence of edge states in the adjacent insulating phase. We have also calculated the point-contact conductance. Even when the two-terminal conductance is approximately quantized, we find large fluctuations in the point-contact conductance. Furthermore, we have found a semi-circular relation between the average of the point-contact conductance and its fluctuation.
We study a quantum particle coupled to hard-core bosons and propagating on disordered ladders with $R$ legs. The particle dynamics is studied with the help of rate equations for the boson-assisted transitions between the Anderson states. We demonstra
te that for finite $R < infty$ and sufficiently strong disorder the dynamics is subdiffusive, while the two-dimensional planar systems with $Rto infty$ appear to be diffusive for arbitrarily strong disorder. The transition from diffusive to subdiffusive regimes may be identified via statistical fluctuations of resistivity. The corresponding distribution function in the diffusive regime has fat tails which decrease with the system size $L$ much slower than $1/sqrt{L}$. Finally, we present evidence that similar non--Gaussian fluctuations arise also in standard models of many-body localization, i.e., in strongly disordered quantum spin chains.
The competition between spin glass, ferromagnetism and Kondo effect is analysed here in a Kondo lattice model with an inter-site random coupling $J_{ij}$ between the localized magnetic moments given by a generalization of the Mattis model which repre
sents an interpolation between ferromagnetism and a highly disordered spin glass. Functional integral techniques with Grassmann fields have been used to obtain the partition function. The static approximation and the replica symmetric ansatz have also been used. The solution of the problem is presented as a phase diagram giving $T/{J}$ {it versus} $J_K/J$ where $T$ is the temperature, $J_{K}$ and ${J}$ are the strengths of the intrasite Kondo and the intersite random couplings, respectively. If $J_K/{J}$ is small, when temperature is decreased, there is a second order transition from a paramagnetic to a spin glass phase. For lower $T/{J}$, a first order transition appears between the spin glass phase and a region where there are Mattis states which are thermodynamically equivalent to the ferromagnetism. For very low ${T/{J}}$, the Mattis states become stable. On the other hand, it is found as solution a Kondo state for large $J_{K}/{J}$ values. These results can improve the theoretical description of the well known experimental phase diagram of $CeNi_{1-x}Cu_{x}$.
