We report on the ensemble inequivalence in a many-body spin-glass model with integer spin. The spin-glass phase transition is of first order for certain values of the crystal field strength and is dependent whether it was derived in the…
We study the existence of a spin-glass phase in a field using Monte Carlo simulations performed along a nontrivial path in the field--temperature plane that must cross any putative de Almeida-Thouless instability line. The method is first…

We perform Monte Carlo simulations of Ising spin-glass models in three and four dimensions, as well as of Migdal-Kadanoff spin glasses on a hierarchical lattice. Our results show strong evidence for universal scaling in the spin-glass phase…
By tempered Monte Carlo simulations, an Almeida-Thouless (AT) phase-boundary line in site-diluted Ising spin systems is searched for. Spins interact only through dipolar fields and occupy a small fraction of lattice sites. The spin-glass…
It is shown by means of a 1/m expansion about the large-m limit of the m-vector spin glass that the lower critical dimension of the de Almeida-Thouless line in spin glasses is equal to the lower critical dimension of the large-m limit of…
The nature of static chaos in Ising spin glasses is studied. For the problem of chaos with magnetic field, scaling relations in the case of the SK model and short-range models are presented. Our results also suggest that if there is de…
We consider the infinite-range spin glass in which the spins have m > 1 components (a vector spin glass). Applying a magnetic field which is random in direction, there is an Almeida Thouless (AT) line below which the "replica symmetric"…
A possible phase in short-range spin glasses exhibiting infinitely many equilibrium states is proposed and characterized in real space. Experimental signatures in equilibrating systems measured with scanning probes are discussed. Some…
We apply the method of gauge transformation to spin glasses under the microcanonical ensemble to study the possibility of ensemble inequivalence in systems with long-range interactions and quenched disorder. It is proved that all the…
We present results of Monte Carlo simulations of the three-dimensional Edwards-Anderson Ising spin glass in the presence of a (random) field. A finite-size scaling analysis of the correlation length shows no indication of a transition, in…
We show that the Almeida-Thouless line in Ising spin glasses vanishes when their dimension d -> 6 as h_{AT}^2/T_c^2 = C(d-6)^4(1- T/T_c)^{d/2 - 1}, where C is a constant of order unity. An equivalent result which could be checked by…
We introduce and prove a novel linear response stability theory for spin glasses. The new stability under suitable perturbation of the equilibrium state implies the whole set of structural identities that characterize the spin glass phase.
We investigate the p-spin model with Gaussian-distributed random interactions in the microcanonical ensemble using the replica theory. For p=2, there are only second-order phase transitions and we recover the results of Sherrington and…
We study the existence of a line of transitions of an Ising spin glass in a magnetic field-known as the de Almeida-Thouless line-using one-dimensional power-law diluted Ising spin-glass models. We choose the power-law exponent to have…
We study in Ising spin glasses the finite-size effects near the spin-glass transition in zero field and at the de Almeida-Thouless transition in a field by Monte Carlo methods and by analytical approximations. In zero field, the finite-size…
Some invariances under perturbations of the spin glass phase are introduced, their proofs outlined and their consequences illustrated as factorisation rules for the overlap distribution. A comparison between the state of the art for mean…
We report a Monte Carlo simulation of the $2D$ Edwards-Anderson spin glass model within the recently introduced multicanonical ensemble. Replica on lattices of size $L^2$ up to $L=48$ are investigated. Once a true groundstate is found, we…
We simulated the Edwards-Anderson Ising spin glass model in three dimensions via the recently proposed multicanonical ensemble. Physical quantities such as energy density, specific heat and entropy are evaluated at all temperatures. We…
The problem of the survival of a spin glass phase in the presence of a field has been a challenging one for a long time. To date, all attempts using equilibrium Monte Carlo methods have been unconclusive. In their comment to our paper,…
