Interacting Arrays of Steps and Lines in Random Media

The phase diagram of two interacting planar arrays of directed lines in random media is obtained by a renormalization group analysis. The results are discussed in the contexts of the roughening of reconstructed crystal surfaces, and the pinning of flux line arrays in layered superconductors. Among the findings are a glassy flat phase with disordered domain structures, a novel second-order phase transition with continuously varying critical exponents, and the generic disappearance of the glassy ``super-rough'' phases found previously for a single array.
