The dynamical scaling of ageing ferromagnetic systems can be generalized to a local scale invariance. This yields a prediction for the causal two-time response function, which has been numerically confirmed in the Glauber-Ising model…
We review results concerning the critical behavior of spin systems at equilibrium. We consider the Ising and the general O($N$)-symmetric universality classes, including the $N\to 0$ limit that describes the critical behavior of…
We employ the machinery of smooth scaling and coarse-graining of observables, developed recently by us in the context of so-called fluctuation operators (inspired by prior work of Verbeure et al) to make a rigorous renormalisation group…
We present the results of extensive Monte Carlo simulations of Ising models with algebraically decaying ferromagnetic interactions in the regime where classical critical behavior is expected for these systems. We corroborate the values for…

We consider nonequilibrium critical dynamics of the two-dimensional Ising model for which the initial state is prepared by switching on random fields with zero mean and variance $H$. In the initial state there is no magnetic order but the…
The finite size behavior of the susceptibility, Binder cumulant and some even moments of the magnetization of a fully finite O(n) cubic system of size L are analyzed and the corresponding scaling functions are derived within a…

We study the dynamics of phase ordering of a non-conserved, scalar order parameter in one dimension, with long-range interactions characterized by a power law $r^{-d-\sigma}$. In contrast to higher dimensional systems, the point nature of…
We investigate the dissipative dynamics of a quantum critical system in contact with a thermal bath. In analogy with the standard protocol employed to analyze aging, we study the response of a system to a sudden change of the bath…
The configurational de-correlation in an aging system is attributed to irreversible intermittent rearrangements, which are described as a Poisson process with average $\propto \ln(1 + t/t_w)$, where $t$ is the observation time and $t_w$ is…
The experimental time scale dependence of thermodynamic relations in out-of-equilibrium systems with aging phenomena is investigated theoretically by using only aging properties of the two-time correlation functions and the generalized…
We study the surface scaling behavior of a semi-infinite $d$-dimensional O(N) spin system in the presence of quenched random field and random anisotropy disorders. It is known that above the lower critical dimension $d_{\mathrm{lc}}=4$ the…
We review the theoretical description of the random field Ising and $O(N)$ models obtained from the functional renormalization group, either in its nonperturbative implementation or, in some limits, in perturbative implementations. The…
The influence of nonequilibrium initial values of the order parameter on its evolution at a critical point is described using a renormalization group approach of the field theory. The dynamic critical exponent $\theta'$ of the short time…
