Abstract
The infinite-range Ising spin glass in the presence of a transverse field is considered. Using the generalised Trotter formula and replica methods, the free energy for the system with quenched random bond interactions is evaluated using the static approximation. It is shown that, when the strength of the transverse field equals the largest eigenvalue of the random bond interaction matrix, the spin glass transition is destroyed. The authors also show that a replica-symmetric spin glass phase is stable in a certain region of the temperature-field phase diagram. Finally they present suggestive arguments which indicate that, when the time dependence of the dynamic susceptibility is included, then the stability of the replica-symmetric phase is enhanced.
