We analyse the critical region of finite-($d$)-dimensional Ising spin glass, in particular the limit of $d$ closely above the lower critical dimension $d_\ell$. At criticality the thermally active degrees of freedom are surfaces (of width…

We study the evolution of spin clusters on two dimensional slices of the $3d$ Ising model in contact with a heat bath after a sudden quench to a subcritical temperature. We analyze the evolution of some simple initial configurations, such…

The relative importance of the contributions of droplet excitations and domain walls on the ordering of short-range Edwards-Anderson spin glasses in three and four dimensions is studied. We compare the overlap distributions of periodic and…

Typically two particles (spins) could be maximally entangled at zero temperature, and for a certain temperature the phenomenon of entanglement vanishes at the threshold temperature. For the Heisenberg coupled model or even the Ising model…
