An important but little-studied property of spin glasses is the stability of their ground states to changes in one or a finite number of couplings. It was shown in earlier work that, if multiple ground states are assumed to exist, then…

We review the long-time off-equilibrium dynamical behaviour of two representative mean-field spin-glass models, namely the $p$-spin spherical and the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick models. We show how both models capture aging phenomena but with…
We consider a system composed by N atoms trapped within a multimode cavity, whose theoretical description is captured by a disordered multimode Dicke model. We show that in the resonant, zero field limit the system exactly realizes the…
In this paper we calculate the mean number of metastable states for spin glasses on so called random thin graphs with couplings taken from a symmetric binary distribution $\pm J$. Thin graphs are graphs where the local connectivity of each…
Recent developments in the physics of low density trapped gases make it worthwhile to verify old, well known results that, while plausible, were based on perturbation theory and assumptions about pseudopotentials. We use and extend recently…
In a region above the Almeida-Thouless line, where we are able to control the thermodynamic limit of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model and to prove replica symmetry, we show that the fluctuations of the overlaps and of the free energy are…
Large numbers of ground states of 3d EA Ising spin glasses are calculated for sizes up to 10^3 using a combination of a genetic algorithm and Cluster-Exact Approximation. A detailed analysis shows that true ground states are obtained. The…
We introduce a Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin-glass model with the addition of elastic degrees of freedom. The problem is formulated in terms of an effective four-spin Hamiltonian in the pressure ensemble, which can be treated by the replica…
Mean field spin glass models have undergone substantial mathematical development, but finite dimensional short range spin glasses remain much less understood. This paper proves several rigorous zero temperature signatures of glassy behavior…
We focus on spherical spin glasses whose Parisi distribution has support of the form $[0,q]$. For such models we construct paths from the origin to the sphere which consistently remain close to the ground-state energy on the sphere of…
We discuss the problem of static chaos in spin glasses. In the case of magnetic field perturbations, we propose a scaling theory for the spin-glass phase. Using the mean-field approach we argue that some pure states are suppressed by the…
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…
We propose a numerical technique to compute the equilibrium free energy of glasses that cannot be prepared quasi-reversibly. For such systems, standard techniques for estimating the free energy by extrapolation, cannot be used. Instead, we…

Replica field theory is used to study the n-dependent free energy of the Ising spin glass in a first order perturbative treatment. Large sample-to-sample deviations of the free energy from its quenched average prove to be Gaussian,…
