The gauge glass model offers an interesting example of a randomly frustrated system with a continuous O(2) symmetry. In two dimensions, the existence of a glass phase at low temperatures has long been disputed among numerical studies. To…

We show that very long range repulsive interactions of a generalized Coulomb-like form $V(R)\sim R^{-\alpha}$, with $\alpha<d$ ($d$-dimensionality), typically introduce very strong frustration, resulting in extreme fragility of the…

A simple transformation of field variables eliminates Coulomb forces from the theory of quantum electrodynamics. This suggests that Coulomb forces may be an emergent phenomenon rather than being fundamental. This possibility is investigated…
