The quenched free energy of spin glasses is estimated by means of annealed averages where the frustration is constrained to its average value. We discuss the case of d-dimensional Ising models with random nearest neighbour coupling, and we…
We consider the Edwards-Anderson Ising Spin Glass model for non negative temperatures T: We define the natural notion of Boltzmann- Gibbs measure for the Edwards-Anderson spin glass at a given temperature, and of unsatisfied edges. We prove…
It is believed that the $\pm J$ Ising spin-glass does not order at finite temperatures in dimension $d=2$. However, using a graphical representation and a contour argument, we prove rigorously the existence of a finite-temperature phase…
The nearest-neighbour XY spin glass on a hypercubic lattice in four dimensions is studied by Monte Carlo simulations. A finite- size scaling analysis of the data leads to a finite temperature spin glass transition at $T_c=0.95\pm 0.15$. The…
We discuss a framework for understanding why spin glasses differ so remarkably from homogeneous systems like ferromagnets, in the context of the sharply divergent low temperature behavior of short- and infinite-range versions of the same…
The recent identification of a time and temperature dependent spin glass correlation length, $\xi({t_w},T)$, has consequences for samples of finite size. Qualitative arguments are given on this basis for departures from t/{t_w} scaling for…
We investigate scenarios in which the low-temperature phase of short-range spin glasses comprises thermodynamic states which are nontrivial mixtures of multiple incongruent pure state pairs. We construct a new kind of metastate supported on…
We show that the thermal subadditivity of entropy provides a common basis to derive a strong form of the bounded difference inequality and related results as well as more recent inequalities applicable to convex Lipschitz functions, random…
Temperature dependence of the magnetization of the Haldane spin chain at finite magnetic field is analyzed systematically. Quantum Monte Carlo data indicates a clear minimum of magnetization as a function of temperature in the gapless…
Dilute magnetic nanoparticle systems exhibit slow dynamics [1] due to a broad distribution of relaxation times that can be traced to a correspondingly broad distribution of particle sizes [1]. However, at higher concentrations interparticle…
We study the three-dimensional quantum Ising spin glass in a transverse magnetic field following the evolution of the bond probability distribution under Renormalisation Group transformations. The phase diagram (critical temperature $T_c$…
In this paper we propose a short range generalization of the $p$-spin interaction spin-glass model. The model is well suited to test the idea that an entropy collapse is at the bottom-line of the dynamical singularity encountered in…
We study fully occupied lattice systems of classical magnetic dipoles which point along random axes. Only dipolar interactions are considered. From tempered Monte Carlo simulations, we obtain numerical evidence that supports the following…
We prove the impossibility of recent attempts to decouple the Replica Symmetry Breaking (RSB) picture for finite-dimensional spin glasses from the existence of many thermodynamic (i.e., infinite-volume) pure states while preserving another…
We perform Monte Carlo simulations of large two-dimensional Gaussian Ising spin glasses down to very low temperatures $\beta=1/T=50$. Equilibration is ensured by using a cluster algorithm including Monte Carlo moves consisting of flipping…
Direct measurements of the spin glass correlation function $G(R)$ for Gaussian and bimodal Ising spin glasses in dimension two have been carried out in the temperature region $T \sim 1$. In the Gaussian case the data are consistent with the…
Based on its off-diagonal Bethe ansatz solution, we study the thermodynamic limit of the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XYZ spin chain with the antiperiodic boundary condition. The key point of our method is that there exist some degenerate points of…
Via Monte Carlo studies of the frustrated XY or classical planar model we demonstrate the possibility of a finite (nonzero) temperature spin/gauge glass phase in two dimensions. Examples of both periodic and quasiperiodic two dimensional…
The real part of the time-dependent ac susceptibility of the short-range Ising spin glass in a transverse field has been investigated at very low temperatures. We have used the quantum linear response theory and domain coarsening ideas of…
We argue that the chaotic temperature effect predicted in Ising spin glasses should be stronger when one considers continuous (XY, Heisenberg) kind of spins, due to bigger entropic fluctuations. We then discuss the behavior of 3d spin…
