We discuss replica symmetry breaking (RSB) in spin glasses. We update work in this area, from both the analytical and numerical points of view. We give particular attention to the difficulties stressed by Newman and Stein concerning the…
The static behavior of orientational glasses is discussed in terms of a replica theory based on the infinite range random bond--random field model. A general version of the model applicable to dipolar and quadrupolar glasses is presented…
We solve the $S=1/2$ infinite-range random Heisenberg Hamiltonian in the paramagnetic phase using quantum Monte Carlo and analytical techniques. We find that the spin-glass susceptibility diverges at a finite temperature $T_g$ which…

The spin glass behavior near zero temperature is a complicated matter. To get an easier access to the spin glass order parameter $Q(x)$ and, at the same time, keep track of $Q_{ab}$, its matrix aspect, and hence of the Hessian controlling…
We develop a quantum replica method for interacting particle systems and use it to estimate the location of the glass transition line in Helium 4. Although we do not fully succeed in taking into account all quantum effects, we make a…

Binary mixtures of large and small particles with disparate size ratio exhibit a rich phenomenology at their glass transition points. In order to gain insights on such systems, we introduce and study a two-component version of the $p$-spin…
We study the Hopfield model with pure $p$-spin interactions with even $p\geq 4$, and a number of patterns, M(N) growing with the system size, $N$, as $M(N) = \a N^{p-1}$. We prove the existence of a critical temperature $\b_p$ characterized…
The microscopic probability distribution function of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model of spin glasses is calculated explicitly as a function of time by a high-temperature expansion. The resulting formula to the third order of the…

Within the Bethe- Peierls method the for short- ranged Ising spin glass, recently formulated by Serva and Paladin, the equation for the spin glass parameter function near the transition to the paramagnetic phase has been carried out. The…
An approximate numerical approach to spin models is proposed, in which the original lattice is transformed into a tree. This method is applied to the Edwards-Anderson spin glass model in two and three dimensions. It captures the…
Spin glasses, generally defined as disordered systems with randomized competing interactions, are a widely investigated complex system. Theoretical models describing spin glasses are broadly used in other complex systems, such as those…
We present a unifying approach to studying the replica symmetric solution in general diluted spin glass models on random $p$-uniform hypergraphs with sparsity parameter $\alpha$. Our result shows that there exist two key regimes in which…
In this paper we study the phase diagram of a Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model where the couplings are forced to thermalize at different time scales. Besides being a challenging generalization of the SK model, such settings may arise…
It is presented a theory that describes a spin glass phase at finite temperatures in Kondo lattice systems with an additional RKKY interaction represented by long range, random couplings among localized spins like in the Sherrington-…
We argue that complex systems must possess long range correlations and illustrate this idea on the example of the mean field spin glass model. Defined on the complete graph, this model has no genuine concept of distance, but the long range…
We study spin-glass systems characterized by continuous occurrence of singularities. The theory of Lee-Yang zeros is used to find the singularities. By using the replica method in mean-field systems, we show that two-dimensional…
From the dynamics of a broad class of classical mean-field glass models one may obtain a quantum model with finite zero-temperature entropy, a quantum transition at zero temperature, and a time-reparametrization (quasi-)invariance in the…
