Spin glass dynamics is a strong function of spatial dimensionality $D$. The lower critical dimension is close to 2.5, so that, in two dimensions, the condensation temperature $T_\text{g}=0$, and only fluctuations are present at finite…
We study the evolution of the maximum energy $E_\max(t)$ reached between time $0$ and time $t$ in the dynamics of simple models with glassy energy landscapes, in instant quenches from infinite temperature to a target temperature $T$.…
It has been demonstrated recently that supercooled liquids sharing simple structural features (e.g. pair distribution functions) may exhibit strikingly distinct dynamical behavior. Here we show that a more subtle structural feature…
The glass transition of supercooled fluids is a particular challenge for computer simulation, because the (longest) relaxation times increase by about 15 decades upon approaching the transition temperature T_g. Brute-force molecular…
By means of parallel tempering Monte Carlo simulations we find strong evidence for a finite-temperature spin-glass transition in a system of diluted classical Heisenberg dipoles randomly placed on the sites of a simple cubic lattice. We…
An isolated mixture of smooth, inelastic hard spheres supports a homogeneous cooling state with different kinetic temperatures for each species. This phenomenon is explored here by molecular dynamics simulation of a two component fluid,…
We construct a mean field theory for the lattice model of a structural glass and solve it using the replica method and one step replica symmetry breaking ansatz; this theory becomes exact in the limit of infinite dimensions. Analyzing…
We provide extended evidence that mode-coupling theory (MCT) of supercooled liquids for the ${\mathsf F}_{12}$ schematic model admits a microscopic realization based on facilitated spin models with tunable facilitation. Depending on the…
We study the fluctuation problems at high temperature in the general mixed $p$-spin glass models under the weak external field assumption: $h= \rho N^{-\alpha}, \rho>0, \alpha \in [1/4,\infty]$. By extending the cluster expansion approach…
Long-range quantum systems, in which the interactions decay as $1/r^{\alpha}$, are of increasing interest due to the variety of experimental set-ups in which they naturally appear. Motivated by this, we study fundamental properties of…
It is a salient experimental fact that a large fraction of candidate spin liquid materials freeze as the temperature is lowered. The question naturally arises whether such freezing is intrinsic to the spin liquid ("disorder-free…
We analyze the behavior of supercooled fluids under shear both theoretically and numerically. Theoretically, we generalize the mode-coupling theory of supercooled fluids to systems under stationary shear flow. Our starting point is the set…
In an important recent paper, \cite{FL}, S. Franz and M. Leone prove rigorous lower bounds for the free energy of the diluted $p$-spin model and the $K$-sat model at any temperature. We show that the results for these two models are…
It is possible to formulate the thermodynamics of a glass forming system in terms of the properties of inherent structures, which correspond to the minima of the potential energy and build up the potential energy landscape in the…
The spherical mean field approximation of a spin-1 model with p-body quenched disordered interaction is investigated. Depending on temperature and chemical potential the system is found in a paramagnetic or in a glassy phase and the…
We show that Glauber dynamics for $ p$-spin glass mixes exponentially slowly at inverse temperatures larger than a constant times $ \ln (p)/p $ for large enough $ p $. This is done by analyzing the energy landscape using Gaussian…
Our goal in this work is to better understand the relationship between replica symmetry breaking, shattering, and metastability. To this end, we study the static and dynamic behaviour of spherical pure $p$-spin glasses above the replica…
We study aging dynamics in two non-disordered spin models with multi-spin interactions, following a sudden quench to low temperature. The models are relevant to the physics of supercooled liquids. Their low temperature dynamics resemble…
When liquids are cooled rapidly, they bypass crystallization and instead enter a supercooled state and then a glass state. Previous studies have shown that the static structure factors of high-temperature liquids, supercooled liquids, and…
We introduce a simple two-dimensional spin model with short-range interactions which shows glassy behavior despite a Hamiltonian which is completely homogeneous and possesses no randomness. We solve exactly for both the static partition…
