We present a combination of heuristic and rigorous arguments indicating that both the pure state structure and the overlap structure of realistic spin glasses should be relatively simple: in a large finite volume with coupling-independent…
The quenched free energy of spin glasses is estimated by means of annealed averages where the frustration is constrained to its average value. We discuss the case of d-dimensional Ising models with random nearest neighbour coupling, and we…
In this work we show that a relativistic spinning particle can be described at the classical and the quantum level as being composed of two physical constituents which are entangled and separated by a fixed distance. This bilocal model for…

This paper is divided into two parts. The first part concerns several standard scenarios for how short-range spin glasses might behave at low temperature. Earlier theorems of the authors are reviewed, and some new results presented,…
Spin glasses are the paradigm of complex systems. These materials present really slow dynamics. However, the nature of the spin glass phase in finite dimensional systems is still controversial. Different theories describing the low…
We consider the Ising spin glass for the arbitrary spin S with the short- ranged interaction using the Bethe- Peierls approximation previously formulated by Serva and Paladin for the same system but limited to S=1/2. Results obtained by us…
The frequency-dependent scaling of the dispersive and dissipative parts of the alternating susceptibility is studied for spin glasses at criticality. An extension of the usual $\omega t$-scaling is proposed. Simulational data from the…
We investigate the properties of the glass phase of a recently introduced spin glass model of soft spins subjected to an anharmonic quartic local potential, which serves as a model of low temperature molecular or soft glasses. We solve 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…
We compute the complexity (logarithm of the number of TAP states) associated with minima and index-one saddle points of the TAP free energy. Higher-index saddles have smaller complexities. The two leading complexities are equal, consistent…
The usefulness of glasses, and particularly of metallic glasses, in technological applications is often limited by their toughness, which is defined as the area under the stress vs. strain curve before plastic yielding. Recently toughness…
