By using renormalization-group (RG) methods, we study a non-mean-field model of a spin glass built on a hierarchical lattice, the hierarchical Edwards-Anderson model in a magnetic field. We investigate the spin-glass transition in a field…
We demonstrate that the standard O(n) symmetric $\phi^{4}$ field theory does not correctly describe the leading finite-size effects near the critical point of spin systems on a $d$-dimensional lattice with $d > 4$. We show that these…

It is pointed out that one-component \phi^4 lattice theory in four dimensions has a non-perturbative sector which can be studied by means of an exact duality transformation of its Ising limit. This duality maps it to a membrane model. As a…
Broken-symmetry-induced order parameters account for many phenomena in condensed matter physics. For spin glasses, such a framework dictates its theoretical construction, whereas experiments have only established dynamical behaviors such as…
We reexamine the range of validity of finite-size scaling in the $\phi^4$ lattice model and the $\phi^4$ field theory below four dimensions. We show that general renormalization-group arguments based on the renormalizability of the $\phi^4$…

We develop a theory for the quantum vortex glass, with both the coupling strengths and the site energies disordered. This model is closely related to XY spin glasses and bosons in random media. For properly chosen distributions of the site…
The very existence of a phase transition for spin glasses in an external magnetic field is controversial, even in high dimensions. We carry out massive simulations of the Ising spin-glass in a field, in six dimensions (which, according to…
We investigate numerically disorder chaos in spin glasses, i.e. the sensitivity of the ground state to small changes of the random couplings. Our study focuses on the Edwards-Anderson model in d=1,2,3 and in mean-field. We find that in all…
We present a mean field model for spin glasses with a natural notion of distance built in, namely, the Edwards-Anderson model on the diluted D-dimensional unit hypercube in the limit of large D. We show that finite D effects are strongly…
The global phase diagram of the Ashkin-Teller spin glass is calculated in d = 3 spatial dimensions by renormalization-group theory. Depending on the value of the positive or negative four-spin interaction, qualitatively different topologies…
Via Monte Carlo studies of the frustrated XY or classical planar model we demonstrate the possibility of a finite (nonzero) temperature spin/gauge glass phase in two dimensions. Examples of both periodic and quasiperiodic two dimensional…
The real time evolution of quantum field theory models can be calculated order by order in perturbation theory. For $\lambda \phi^4$ models, the perturbative series have a zero radius of convergence which in part motivated the design of…
We study a model for a quantum Ising spin glass in two space dimensions by Monte Carlo simulations. In the disordered phase at $T=0$, we find power law distributions of the local susceptibility and local non-linear susceptibility, which are…

We propose a method to study the magnetic properties of a disordered Ising kagome lattice. The model considers small spin clusters with infinite-range disordered couplings and short-range ferromagnetic (FE) or antiferromagnetic…
The interplay between quantum fluctuations and disorder is investigated in a spin-glass model, in the presence of a uniform transverse field $\Gamma$, and a longitudinal random field following a Gaussian distribution with width $\Delta$.…
Within the wide class of disordered materials, spin glasses occupy a special place because of their conceptually simple definition of randomly interacting spins. Their modelling has triggered spectacular developments of out-of-equilibrium…
