The random first order transition theory of the dynamics of supercooled liquids is extended to treat aging phenomena in nonequilibrium structural glasses. A reformulation of the idea of ``entropic droplets'' in terms of libraries of local…
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 use a non-equilibrium simulation method to study the spin glass transition in three-dimensional Ising spin glasses. The transition point is repeatedly approached at finite velocity $v$ (temperature change versus time) in Monte Carlo…
Spin relaxation close to the glass temperature of CuMn and AuFe spin glasses is shown, by neutron spin echo, to follow a generalised exponential function which explicitly introduces hierarchically constrained dynamics and macroscopic…

The theory of phenomenological Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics is extended by includimg stochastic processes in order to account for recently derived thermodynamical relations such as the Jarzynski equality. Four phenomenological axioms are…

Non-equilibrium dynamics in a Ag(11%Mn) spin-glass has been studied by low frequency ac-susceptibility and magnetic relaxation experiments. The results unequivocally show that spin structures that memorize the cooling process are imprinted…
Energy landscapes are high-dimensional surfaces representing the dependence of system energy on variable configurations, which determine crucially the system's emergent behavior but are difficult to be analyzed due to their high-dimensional…
We numerically study the non-equilibrium dynamics of the three dimensional Heisenberg Edwards-Anderson spin glass following a sudden quench to its low temperature phase. The subsequent aging behavior of the system is analyzed in detail, and…
In this talk I review some recent developments which shed light on the main connections between structural glasses and mean-field spin glass models with a discontinuous transition. I also discuss the role of quantum fluctuations on the…
We discuss an extension of the fluctuation theorem to stochastic models that, in the limit of zero external drive, are not able to equilibrate with their environment, extending results presented by Sellitto (cond-mat/9809186). We show that…
A three-dimensional $\pm J$ XY spin-glass model is investigated by a nonequilibrium relaxation method. We have introduced a new criterion for the finite-time scaling analysis. A transition temperature is obtained by a crossing point of…
We analyse the out of equilibrium behavior of an Ising spin chain with an asymmetric kinetic constraint after a quench to a low temperature T. In the limit T\to 0, we provide an exact solution of the resulting coarsening process. The…
This paper is divided into two parts. The first part concerns several standard scenarios for how short-range spin glasses might behave at low temperature. Earlier theorems of the authors are reviewed, and some new results presented,…
A model glass with fast and slow processes is studied. The statics is simple and the facilitated slow dynamics is exactly solvable. The main features of a fragile glass take place: Kauzmann transition, Vogel-Fulcher law, Adam-Gibbs relation…
We find a dynamic effect in the non-equilibrium dynamics of a spin glass that closely parallels equilibrium temperature chaos. This effect, that we name dynamic temperature chaos, is spatially heterogeneous to a large degree. The key…
In this note we present numerical simulations of binary mixtures and we find indications for a thermodynamic transition to a glassy phase. We find that below the transition point the off equilibrium correlation functions and response…
