We use Monte Carlo and transfer matrix methods in combination with extrapolation schemes to determine the phase diagram of the two-dimensional superantiferromagnetic (SAF) Ising model with next-nearest-neighbor (NNN) interactions in a magnetic field. The interactions between nearest-neighbor (NN) spins are ferromagnetic along x, and antiferromagnetic along Y. We find that for sufficiently low temperatures and fields, there exists a region limited by a critical line of second-order transitions separating a SAF phase from a magnetically induced paramagnetic phase. We did not find any region with either first-order transition or with reentrant behavior. The NNN couplings produce either an expansion or a contraction of the SAF phase. Expansion occurs when the interactions are antiferromagnetic, and contraction when they are ferromagnetic. There is a critical ratio R(c)=1/2 between NNN and NN couplings, beyond which the SAF phase no longer exists.

In this work we analyze the ground-state properties of the s=1/2 one-dimensional axial next-nearest-neighbor Ising model in a transverse field using the quantum fidelity approach. We numerically determined the fidelity susceptibility as a function of the transverse field B_{x} and the strength of the next-nearest-neighbor interaction J_{2}, for systems of up to 24 spins. We also examine the ground-state vector with respect to the spatial ordering of the spins. The ground-state phase diagram shows ferromagnetic, floating, and 〈2,2〉 phases, and we predict an infinite number of modulated phases in the thermodynamic limit (L→∞). Paramagnetism only occurs for larger magnetic fields. The transition lines separating the modulated phases seem to be of second order, whereas the line between the floating and the 〈2,2〉 phases is possibly of first order.

We study the time dependent behavior of the four-spin interactions Ising chain in the presence of a disordered transverse magnetic field. In order to analyze the effects of field randomness in the dynamical behavior of the system we calculate the time-dependent correlation function and the longitudinal relaxation function of the infinite chain. We consider a bi-modal distribution for the field energy strength, where one of its values equals the exchange coupling energy while the other value can be lower or higher than the coupling energy. We find that an increasing concentration of weaker fields produces an enhancement of the central mode behavior. However, when the concentration of stronger fields increases, the system undergoes a crossover from central mode to collective-type dynamics.
