We investigate the L\'evy glass, a mean-field spin glass model with power-law distributed couplings characterized by a divergent second moment. By combining extensively many small couplings with a spare random backbone of strong bonds the…
The main result in this paper is motivated by the M\'ezard-Parisi ansatz which predicts a very special structure for the distribution of spins in diluted mean field spin glass models, such as the random K-sat model. Using the fact that one…
We investigate the phase structure of the random-field Ising model with a bimodal random field distribution. Our aim is to test for the possibility of an equilibrium spin-glass phase, and for replica symmetry breaking (RSB) within such a…
We perform an accurate test of Ultrametricity in the aging dynamics of the three dimensional Edwards-Anderson spin glass. Our method consists in considering the evolution in parallel of two identical systems constrained to have fixed…

We study the Edwards-Anderson model on a simple cubic lattice with a finite constant external field. We employ an indicator composed of a ratio of susceptibilities at finite wavenumbers, which was recently proposed to avoid the difficulties…
Extensive computer simulations are performed for a few model glass-forming liquids in both two and three dimensions to study their dynamics when a randomly chosen fraction of particles are frozen in their equilibrium positions. For all the…

We discuss a general formalism that allows study of transitions over barriers in spin glasses with long-range interactions that contain large but finite number, $N$, of spins. We apply this formalism to the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model…
We present results of a Monte Carlo study of the equilibrium dynamics of the one dimensional long-range Ising spin glass model. By tuning a parameter $\sigma$, this model interpolates between the mean field Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model and…
We study the problem of chaos in temperature in some mean-field spin-glass models by means of a replica computation over a model of coupled systems. We propose a set of solutions of the saddle point equations which are intrinsically…
The critical properties of short-range Ising spin-glass models, defined on a diamond hierarchical lattice of graph fractal dimension $d_{f}=2.58$, 3, and 4, and scaling factor 2 are studied via a method based on the Migdal-Kadanoff…
In Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 219701 (2013) [arXiv:1211.0843] Billoire et al. criticize the conclusions of our Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 177204 (2012), arxiv:1206.0783]. They argue that considering the Edwards-Anderson and…
We use a random pinning procedure to investigate stable glassy states associated with large deviations of the activity in a model glass-former. We pin particles both from active (equilibrium) configurations and from stable (inactive) glassy…
Spherical spin glasses are canonical models for smooth random functions in high dimensions. In this review, we survey several interrelated lines of research on their geometric structure. We begin with results concerning critical points and…
We study the nature of the broken ergodicity in the low temperature phase of Ising spin glass systems, using as a diagnostic tool the spectrum of eigenvalues of the spin-spin correlation function. We show that multiple extensive eigenvalues…
We study the Gibbs measure of mixed spherical $p$-spin glass models at low temperature, in (part of) the 1-RSB regime, including, in particular, models close to pure in an appropriate sense. We show that the Gibbs measure concentrates on…
We consider the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model of spin glasses at high-temperature and no external field, and study the problem of sampling from the Gibbs distribution $\mu$ in polynomial time. We prove that, for any inverse temperature…
In this work we study numerically a short range p-spin glass model in three dimensions. The behaviour of the model appears to be remarkably different from mean field predictions. In fact it shares some features typical of models with full…
