Abstract

An improved version of a cluster-effective-field theory for spin glasses, namely the double-cluster approximation, is formulated. The present version is based not on theself-consistency condition, but on thedouble-cluster-consistency condition. The advantages of the approximation combined with the coherentanomaly method are discussed. The critical data of the spin-glass susceptibility are estimated for the two-, three-, and four-dimensional ±J models.
