Local stresses and pressures always exist in glasses. In this letter we consider their effects on the structure and structural correlations in simple glasses. We find that extreme values of local pressures are related to well defined local…

Attempts to disentangle shear-flow turbulence often focus on identifying relatively simple solutions, such as travelling waves or periodic orbits. We show, however, that capturing multiscale features requires considering states at least as…
A theoretical analysis [Angelani et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 065702 (2006)] predicts glassy behaviour of light in a nonlinear random medium. This implies slow dynamics related to the presence of many metastable states. We consider very…
In the three-dimensional Heisenberg spin glass in a random field we study the properties of the inherent structures that are obtained by an instantaneous cooling from infinite temperature. For not too large field the density of states…

We accurately treat the effect of the double and triple interactions of two-level systems (TLS) in glasses onto the energy delocalization due to the long-range interaction of TLS. Although this work qualitatively reproduces the estimates of…
We investigate theoretically a refrigerator based on a two-level system (TLS) coupled alternately to two different heat baths. Modulation of the coupling is achieved by tuning the level spacing of the TLS. We find that the TLS, which avoids…
The phase-locking of transverse higher-order resonator modes results in a beam with rapidly oscillating spatial intensity profile. To complete the description of such transverse mode-locked (TML) beams, their spatiotemporal phase dynamics…
Low-frequency vibrational harmonic modes of glasses are frequently used to understand their universal low-temperature properties. One well studied feature is the excess low-frequency density of states over the Debye model prediction. Here…
The relevance of tunneling two-level systems (TLS) for electron dephasing in metals is analyzed. We demonstrate that if the concentration of TLS is sufficient to cause the observed dephasing rate, one also should expect quite substantial…
A new relaxation mechanism is shown to arise from overdamped two-level systems above a critical temperature $T^*\approx 5$ K, thus yielding an explanation for experimental observations in dielectric glasses in the temperature range between…
We extended existing theory of the two-pulse electric-dipole echo in glasses in a magnetic field to the three-pulse echo. As is well known, at low temperatures two-level systems (TLS's) are responsible for the echo phenomenon in glasses.…
The crossing of temperature dependences of the sound velocity in normal and superconducting state of metallic glasses points out unambiguously the renormalization of the intensity of sound interaction with two-level systems (TLS), caused by…
We propose two hypotheses which characterize the quasi-equilibrium state that realizes after a cold collapse of self-gravitating system. The first hypothesis is the linear temperature-mass (TM) relation, which yields a characteristic…
We propose a microscopic translationally invariant glass model which exhibits two level tunneling systems with a broad range of asymmetries and barrier heights in its glassy phase. Their distribution is qualitatively different from what is…
