Trap models have been initially proposed as toy models for dynamical relaxation in extremely simplified rough potential energy landscapes. Their importance has considerably grown recently thanks to the discovery that the trap like aging…
We show that the dynamics of simple disordered models, like the directed Trap Model and the Random Energy Model, takes place at a coexistence point between active and inactive dynamical phases. We relate the presence of a dynamic phase…

Possibility of description of the glass transition in terms of critical dynamics considering a hierarchy of the intermodal relaxation time is shown. The generalized Vogel-Fulcher law for the system relaxation time is derived in terms of…
A one dimensional trap model for a thermally activated classical particle is introduced to simulate driven dynamics in presence of "ageing" effects. The depth of each trap increases with the time elapsed since the particle has fallen into…
We study various models of independent particles hopping between energy `traps' with a density of energy barriers $\rho(E)$, on a $d$ dimensional lattice or on a fully connected lattice. If $\rho(E)$ decays exponentially, a true dynamical…
The relaxation dynamics of zero range process (ZRP) has always been an interesting problem. In this study, we set up the relationship between ZRP and traps model, and investigate the slow dynamics of ZRP in the framework of traps model.…

We study the out-of-equilibrium aging dynamics of the Random Energy Model (REM) ruled by a single spin-flip Metropolis dynamics. We focus on the dynamical evolution taking place on time-scales diverging with the system size. Our aim is to…
A novel model for dynamical traps in intermittent human control is proposed. It describes probabilistic, step-wise transitions between two modes of a subject's behavior - active and passive phases in controlling an object's dynamics - using…
The nonlinear dimer obtained through the nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger equation has been a workhorse for the discovery the role nonlinearity plays in strongly interacting systems. While the analysis of the stationary states demonstrates the…
What features characterise complex system dynamics? Power laws and scale invariance of fluctuations are often taken as the hallmarks of complexity, drawing on analogies with equilibrium critical phenomena[1-3]. Here we argue that slow,…
In this work, we investigate the classical loop models doped with monomers and dimers on a square lattice, whose partition function can be expressed as a tensor network (TN). In the thermodynamic limit, we use the boundary matrix product…
We theoretically study the trapping time distribution and the efficiency of the excitation energy transport in dendritic systems. Trapping of excitations, created at the periphery of the dendrimer, on a trap located at its core, is used as…
We study a system of few fermions in a one-dimensional harmonic trap, and focus on the case of dipolar majority particles in contact with a single impurity. The impurity is used both for quenching the system, and for tracking the system…
Random tensor models which display multicritical behaviors in a remarkably simple fashion are presented. They come with entropy exponents \gamma = (m-1)/m, similarly to multicritical random branched polymers. Moreover, they are interpreted…
We consider a classical interacting dimer model which interpolates between the square lattice case and the triangular lattice case by tuning a chemical potential in the diagonal bonds. The interaction energy simply corresponds to the number…
The Adam-Gibbs view of the glass transition relates the relaxation time to the configurational entropy, which goes continuously to zero at the so-called Kauzmann temperature. We examine this scenario in the context of a dimer model with an…
