This is a reply to cond-mat/0010033 by Newman and Stein, which is a comment on on our paper Phys. Rev. Lett. 85, 3017 (2000), cond-mat/0002134.
We investigate the ground state structure of Ising spin glasses in zero magnetic field by determining how the ground state changes in a fixed finite block far from the boundaries when the boundary conditions are changed. We find, both in…
We show that the evidence of cond-mat/9906323 does not discriminate among droplet model and mean field like behavior.
We investigate the ground state structure of the three-dimensional Ising spin glass in zero field by determining how the ground state changes in a fixed finite block far from the boundaries when the boundary conditions are changed. We find…
We wish to thank Stefan Boettcher for prompting us to further check and highlight the accuracy and scaling of our results. Here we provide a comprehensive response to the Comment written by him. We argue that the Comment did not account for…
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…
A construction supporting a conjecture that different ground state pairs exist in the 2-dimensional Edwards-Anderson Ising spin glass is presented.
We demonstrate that the analytic calculation of the 1RSB break point parameter in a paper by de Oliveira and Fontanari[1] is erroneous, due to the omission of a higher order term in a lengthy perturbative calculation, and provide a…
In this short note we study the fourth order consequences of the stochastic stability property for mean field spin glass models introduced in previous paper by Aizenman and Contucci. We show that due to a remarkable cancellation mechanism…
An important but little-studied property of spin glasses is the stability of their ground states to changes in one or a finite number of couplings. It was shown in earlier work that, if multiple ground states are assumed to exist, then…
We reply to the Comment by Hartmann (cond-mat/9908132) on our paper Phys. Rev. Lett. 84 (2000) 2026 (also cond-mat/9907125).
We show that there is no need to modify the Parisi replica symmetry breaking ansatz, by working with $R$ steps of breaking and solving {\it exactly} the discrete stationarity equations generated by the standard ``truncated Hamiltonian" of…
The Comment by Duval et al. [PRL 96, 099701 (2006)] addresses an important, but not the main, result of our Letter [PRL 95, 137204 (2005)]. It does not contradict our results in substance, and the only objection is really on the style of…
We compute and analyze couples of ground states of 3D spin glass systems with the same quenched noise but periodic and anti-periodic boundary conditions for different lattice sizes. We discuss the possible different behaviors of the system,…
We reply on the comment of D. Belitz and T. R. Kirkpatrick on our article ``Instability of the ferromagnetic quantum critical point and symmetry of the ferromagnetic ground state in 2D and 3D electron gases with arbitrary spin-orbit…
Reply to the Comment by L. Berthier and J.-P. Bouchaud, Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 059701 (2003), also cond-mat/0209165, on our paper Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 097201 (2002), also cond-mat/0203444
Spin glasses are models of statistical mechanics in which a large number of simple elements interact with one another in a disordered fashion. One of the fundamental results of the theory is the Parisi formula, which identifies the limit of…
In a recent letter Marinari et al [Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 1698 (1998)] introduced a new method to study spin glass transitions and argued that by probing replica symmetry (RS) as opposed to time reversal symmetry (TRS), their method…
Ground states of 3d EA Ising spin glasses are calculated for sizes up to $14^3$ using a combination of genetic algorithms and cluster-exact approximation . The distribution $P(|q|)$ of overlaps is calculated. For increasing size the width…
We expand on why our recent results rule out the standard SK picture of realistic spin glasses.
