We analyse the antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on a depleted kagome lattice, where some bonds have been reduced to exchange integral J_2 << J_1. The fully depleted system consists of 1D chains, each with a doubly degenerate…

The short- and long-time dynamics of model systems undergoing a glass transition with apparent inversion of Kauzmann and dynamical arrest glass transition lines is investigated. These models belong to the class of the spherical mean-field…
We study the effects of random pinning on the Fredrickson-Andersen model on the Bethe lattice. We find that the nonergodic transition temperature rises as the fraction of the pinned spins increases and the transition line terminates at a…
An approximate numerical approach to spin models is proposed, in which the original lattice is transformed into a tree. This method is applied to the Edwards-Anderson spin glass model in two and three dimensions. It captures the…
We investigate near the point of glass transition the expansion of the free energy corresponding to the generalized Sherrington--Kirkpatrick model with arbitrary diagonal operators U standing instead of Ising spins. We focus on the case…
We investigate scaling limits of trees built by uniform attachment with freezing, which is a variant of the classical model of random recursive trees introduced in a companion paper. Here vertices are allowed to freeze, and arriving…
Glasses possess complex energy landscapes and exhibit non-equilibrium aging dynamics. Here, we propose a generalized trap model for activated aging based on a key static property of the energy landscape: the distribution of energy barriers.…
We introduce a finite-connectivity ferromagnetic model with a three-spin interaction which has a crystalline (ferromagnetic) phase as well as a glass phase. The model is not frustrated, it has a ferromagnetic equilibrium phase at low…
We describe the connection between inversion symmetry breaking and criticality in free fermionic lattice models. It is shown that for translation-invariant spinless fermions, the breaking of this symmetry in the ground state implies…
We study a Kagome-like spin-$1/2$ Heisenberg ladder with competing ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) exchange interactions. Using the density-matrix renormalization group based calculations, we obtain the ground state phase…
Spin-1/2 kagome antiferromagnet (AFM) is one of the most studied models in frustrated magnetism since it is a promising candidate to host exotic spin liquid states. However, despite numerous studies using both analytical and numerical…
We study the entanglement properties of a quantum lattice-gas model for which we can find the exact ground state (of the Rokhsar-Kivelson type). The ground state can be expressed as a superposition of states, each of which is characterized…
We uncover a new kind of entropic long range order in finite dimensional spin glasses. We study the link-diluted version of the Edwards-Anderson spin glass model with bimodal couplings (J=+/-1) on a 3D lattice. By using exact reduction…
Critical behavior of three-dimensional classical frustrated antiferromagnets with a collinear spin ordering and with an additional twofold degeneracy of the ground state is studied. We consider two lattice models, whose continuous limit…
Open-shell nanographenes offer a controlled setting to study correlated magnetism emerging from $\pi$-electron systems. We analyze oligo(indenoindene) molecules, non-bipartite carbon ladders whose tight-binding spectra feature a gapped,…
Kinetic constraints are generally expected to slow down dynamics in many-body systems, obstructing or even completely suppressing transport of conserved charges. Here, we show how gauge theories can defy this wisdom by yielding constrained…
We study the effect in geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets of weak, random variations in the strength of exchange interactions. Without disorder the simplest classical models for these systems have macroscopically degenerate ground…
The purpose of this manuscript is to review my recent activity on three main research topics. The first concerns the nature of low temperature amorphous solids and their relation with the spin glass transition in a magnetic field. This is…
