We provide the first examples of two-step replica symmetry breaking (2-RSB) models for the spherical mixed p-spin glass at zero temperature. Precisely, we show that for a certain class of mixtures, the Parisi measure at zero temperature is…
We study the aging behavior of a truncated version of the Random Energy Model evolving under Metropolis dynamics. We prove that the natural time-time correlation function defined through the overlap function converges to an arcsine law…
Computer simulations are used to study a three-dimensional polydisperse model glassformer in a replica-coupling setup where an attractive field $\propto - \varepsilon Q$ of strength $\varepsilon$ can adjust the similarity of the system to a…
We introduce a novel method for numerical spin glass investigations: Simulations of two replica at fixed temperature, weighted such that a broad distribution of the Parisi overlap parameter $q$ is achieved. Canonical expectation values for…
We present here for the first time a unifying perspective for the lack of equipartition in non-linear ordered systems and the low temperature phase-space fragmentation in disordered systems. We demonstrate that they are just two…
High-temperature resummed perturbation theory is plagued by poor convergence properties. The problem appears for theories with bosonic field content such as QCD, QED or scalar theories. We calculate the pressure as well as other…
We compute the pressure of the random energy model (REM) and generalized random energy model(GREM) by establishing variational upper and lower bounds. For the upper bound, we generalize Guerra's ``broken replica symmetry bounds",and…
We experimentally demonstrate that highly structured distributions of work emerge during even the simple task of erasing a single bit. These are signatures of a refined suite of time-reversal symmetries in distinct functional classes of…
Sub-Gaussian and subexponential distributions are introduced and applied to study the fluctuation-response relation out of equilibrium. A bound on the difference in expected values of an arbitrary sub-Gaussian or subexponential physical…
A possible approach to the statistical description of granular assemblies starts from Edwards' assumption that all blocked states occupying the same volume are equally probable (S.F. Edwards, R. Oakeshott, Physica A 157, 1080 (1989)). We…
We propose a new implementation of the replica-exchange method (REM) in which replicas follow a pre-planned route in temperature space instead of a random walk. Our method satisfies the detailed balance condition in the proposed route. The…
As in the preceding paper we aim at identifying the effective theory that describes the fluctuations of the local overlap with an equilibrium reference configuration close to a putative thermodynamic glass transition. We focus here on the…
We study a one-dimensional version of the Hopfield model with long, but finite range interactions below the critical temperature. In the thermodynamic limit we obtain large deviation estimates for the distribution of the ``local'' overlaps,…
In an earlier work, the statistical physics associated with finite--temperature decoding of code ensembles, along with the relation to their random coding error exponents, were explored in a framework that is analogous to Derrida's random…
We study the statistical mechanics of supercooled liquids when the system evolves at a temperature $T$ with a field $\epsilon$ linearly coupled to its overlap with a reference configuration of the same liquid sampled at a temperature $T_0$.…
We prove a central limit theorem for the normalized overlap between two replicas in the spherical SK model in the high temperature phase. The convergence holds almost surely with respect to the disorder variables, and the inverse…
We establish relations between different characterizations of order in spin glass models. We first prove that the broadening of the replica overlap distribution indicated by a nonzero standard deviation of the replica overlap $R^{1,2}$…
The full mean-field solution of spin glass models with a continuous order-parameter function is not directly available and approximate schemes must be used to assess its properties. The averaged physical quantities are to be represented via…
Cavity point-to-set correlations are real-space tools to detect the roughening of the free-energy landscape that accompanies the dynamical slowdown of glass-forming liquids. Measuring these correlations in model glass formers remains,…
