We introduce a geometric generalization of the O(N)-field theory that describes N-colored membranes with arbitrary dimension D. As the O(N)-model reduces in the limit N->0 to self-avoiding polymers, the N-colored manifold model leads to…
Phase transitions in non-equilibrium steady states of O(n)-symmetric models with reversible mode couplings are studied using dynamic field theory and the renormalization group. The systems are driven out of equilibrium by dynamical…
The large distance behaviors of the random field and random anisotropy O(N) models are studied with the functional renormalization group in 4-\epsilon dimensions. The random anisotropy Heisenberg (N=3) model is found to have a phase with…
We consider the random-anisotropy model on the square and on the cubic lattice in the strong-anisotropy limit. We compute exact ground-state configurations, and we use them to determine the stiffness exponent at zero temperature; we find…
We discuss the shape dependence of the finite-size scaling limit in a strongly anisotropic O(N) model in the large-N limit. We show that scaling is observed even if an incorrect value for the anisotropy exponent is considered. However, the…
We study O(N) symmetric supersymmetric models in three dimensions at finite temperature. These models are known to have an interesting phase structures. In particular, in the limit $N \to \infty$ one finds spontaneous breaking of scale…
We review the theoretical description of the random field Ising and $O(N)$ models obtained from the functional renormalization group, either in its nonperturbative implementation or, in some limits, in perturbative implementations. The…
The finite-size renormalization-group approach for isotropic O$(n)$-symmetric systems introduced previously [V. Dohm, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 110}, 107207 (2013)] is extended to weakly anisotropic O$(n)$-symmetric systems. Our theory is…

We study the surface scaling behavior of a semi-infinite $d$-dimensional O(N) spin system in the presence of quenched random field and random anisotropy disorders. It is known that above the lower critical dimension $d_{\mathrm{lc}}=4$ the…

We have studied the critical properties of the three-dimensional random anisotropy Heisenberg model by means of numerical simulations using the Parallel Tempering method. We have simulated the model with two different disorder…
We study the critical behavior of a random field O($N$) spin model with a second-rank random anisotropy term in spatial dimensions $4<d<6$, by means of the replica method and the 1/N expansion. We obtain a replica-symmetric solution of the…
We consider 3+1-dimensional gauge theories at finite temperature and a finite density of charges which couple to a 2+1-dimensional Chern-Simons operator, giving rise to a theta-term with constant spatial gradient of theta. The…
We study the long-distance behavior of the O(N) model in the presence of random fields and random anisotropies correlated as ~1/x^{d-sigma} for large separation x using the functional renormalization group. We compute the fixed points and…
The phase diagram of two-dimensional systems with continuous symmetry of the vector order parameter containing defects of the "random local anisotropy" type is investigated. In the case of a weakly anisotropic distribution of the easy…
We revisit the long time dynamics of the spherical fully connected $p = 2$-spin glass model when the number of spins $N$ is large but {\it finite}. At $T=0$ where the system is in a (trivial) spin-glass phase, and on long time scale $t…
We perform Monte Carlo simulations in a random anisotropy magnet at a intermediate exchange to anisotropy ratio. We focus on the out of equilibrium relaxation after a sudden quenching in the low temperature phase, well below the freezing…
