We study the dynamics of the East model, comprising a chain of uncoupled spins in a downward-pointing field. Glassy effects arise at low temperatures $T$ from the kinetic constraint that spins can only flip if their left neighbour is up. We…

We study the dynamics of symmetric and asymmetric spin-glass models of size $N$. The analysis is in terms of the double empirical process: this contains both the spins, and the field felt by each spin, at a particular time (without any…

In this paper we propose a short range generalization of the $p$-spin interaction spin-glass model. The model is well suited to test the idea that an entropy collapse is at the bottom-line of the dynamical singularity encountered in…
Spin glass dynamics is a strong function of spatial dimensionality $D$. The lower critical dimension is close to 2.5, so that, in two dimensions, the condensation temperature $T_\text{g}=0$, and only fluctuations are present at finite…
