Zeros of the $n$th moment of the partition function $[Z^n]$ are investigated in a vanishing temperature limit $\beta \to \infty$, $n \to 0$ keeping $y=\beta n \sim O(1)$. In this limit, the moment parameterized by $y$ characterizes the…
The effects of floppy modes in the thermodynamical properties of a system are studied. From thermodynamical arguments, we deduce that floppy modes are not at zero frequency and thus a modified Debye model is used to take into account this…

Use of dedicated computers in spin glass simulations allows one to equilibrate very large samples (of size as large as $L=32$) and to carry out "computer experiments" that can be compared to (and analyzed in combination with) laboratory…

Spin glasses are paradigmatic models that deliver concepts relevant for a variety of systems. However, rigorous analytical results are difficult to obtain for spin-glass models, in particular for realistic short-range models. Therefore…
A new powerful method to test the stability of the replica symmetric spin glass phase is proposed by introducing a replicon generator function g(v). Exact symmetry arguments are used to prove that its extremum is proportional to the inverse…
In certain mean field models for spin glasses there occurs a one step replica symmetry breaking pattern. As an example of general $1/N$-corrections in such systems, the fluctuations in the internal energy are calculated. For this specific…
A controversial issue in spin glass theory is whether mean field correctly describes 3-dimensional spin glasses. If it does, how can replica symmetry breaking arise in terms of spin clusters in Euclidean space? Here we argue that there…
