The physical Meaning of Replica Symmetry Breaking

Statistical Mechanics 2007-05-23 v1 Disordered Systems and Neural Networks

Abstract

In this talk I will presente the physical meaning of replica symmetry breaking stressing the physical concepts. After introducing the theoretical framework and the experimental evidence for replica symmetry breaking, I will describe some of the basic ideas using a probabilistic language. The predictions for off-equilibrium dynamics will be shortly outlined.
