Aging is considered as the property of the elements of a system to be less prone to change states as they get older. We incorporate aging into the noisy voter model, a stochastic model in which the agents modify their binary state by means…

We investigate a general scenario for ``glassy'' or ``jammed'' systems driven by an external, non-conservative force, analogous to a shear force in a fluid. In this scenario, the drive results in the suppression of the usual aging process,…
We study the temperature dependence of the conductivity of the 2D electronic solid. In realistic samples, a domain structure forms in the solid and each domain randomly orients in the absence of the in-plane field. At higher temperature,…
