We study the critical behavior and the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of a two-dimensional Ising model with non-static interactions. In our model, bonds are dynamically changing according to a majority rule depending on the set of closest…
We take a pragmatic, model independent approach to single field slow-roll canonical inflation by imposing conditions, not on the potential, but on the slow-roll parameter $\epsilon(\phi)$ and its derivatives $\epsilon^{\prime }(\phi)$ and…
Existing theories explain spin glass transition in terms of a phase transition and order parameters, and assume the existence of a distinct spin glass phase. In addition to problems related to clarifying the nature of this phase, the common…

We investigate the critical behavior of a three-dimensional short-range spin glass model in the presence of an external field $\eps$ conjugated to the Edwards-Anderson order parameter. In the mean-field approximation this model is described…
Virtually all questions that one can ask about the behavioral and structural complexity of a stochastic process reduce to a linear algebraic framing of a time evolution governed by an appropriate hidden-Markov process generator. Each type…
