We consider networks of coupled stochastic oscillators. When coupled we find strong collective oscillations, while each unit remains stochastic. In the limit (N\to \infty) we derive a system of integro-delay equations and show analytically…
Understanding the yielding of glass-forming systems upon shearing is notoriously difficult since it is a strong non-equilibrium effect. Here we show that the concept of the potential energy landscape (PEL), developed for the quiescent…
It is shown that random quantum spin systems with centered disorder satisfy correlation inequalities previously proved (arXiv:cond-mat/0612371) in the classical case. Consequences include monotone approach of pressure and ground state…
