Abstract
The infinite-range Ising spin glass in the presence of a Gaussian random field is investigated by means of the replica method. The replica-symmetric solution and its instability are discussed; it is shown that the Almeida-Thouless instability regions are always reduced by the random field. The crossover exponent \ensuremath{\varphi} associated with the irreversibility line is shown to be nonuniversal in the presence of a random field, varying in a range from 1 to 3. Some of our results are compared with recent experimental measurements performed in the diluted antiferromagnet ${\mathrm{Fe}}_{\mathit{x}}$${\mathrm{Zn}}_{1\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathit{x}}$${\mathrm{F}}_{2}$.
