A disordered system is denominated `annealed' when the interactions themselves may evolve and adjust their values to lower the free energy. The opposite (`quenched') situation when disorder is fixed, is the one relevant for physical…

We study the critical bosonic O(N) vector model with quenched random mass disorder in the large N limit. Due to the replicated action which is sometimes not bounded from below, we avoid the replica trick and adopt a traditional approach to…

Electrons in condensed matter have internal degrees of freedom, such as charge, spin and orbital, leading to various forms of ordered states through phase transitions. However, in individual materials, a charge/spin/orbital ordered state of…
