We extend the theory of ground states of classical Heisenberg spin systems published previously by a closer investigation of the convex Gram set of $N$ spins. This is relevant for the present purpose since the set of ground states of a…
As a toy model for the microscopic description of matter in de Sitter space, we consider a Hamiltonian acting on the spin-j representation of SU(2). This is a model with a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, from which quasinormal modes…
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…
While the Gibbs states of spin glass models have been noted to have an erratic dependence on temperature, one may expect the mean over the disorder to produce a continuously varying ``quenched state''. The assumption of such continuity in…
We study the emergence of glassy states after a sudden cooling in lattice models with short range interactions and without any a priori quenched disorder. The glassy state emerges whenever the equilibrium model possesses a sufficient number…
Active matter, whose motion is driven, and glasses, whose dynamics are arrested, seem to lie at opposite ends of the spectrum in nonequilibrium systems. In spite of this, both classes of systems exhibit a multitude of stable states that are…
We show that applying simple dynamical rules to Baxter's eight-vertex model leads to a system which resembles a glass-forming liquid. There are analogies with liquid, supercooled liquid, glassy and crystalline states. The disordered phases…
Ground states of the Edwards-Anderson (EA) spin glass model are studied on infinite graphs with finite degree. Ground states are spin configurations that locally minimize the EA Hamiltonian on each finite set of vertices. A problem with…
The nature of the spin glass state is investigated by studying changes to the ground state when a weak perturbation is applied to the bulk of the system. We consider short range models in three and four dimensions and the infinite range…
We present an algorithm for finding ground states of two dimensional spin glass systems based on ideas from matrix product states in quantum information theory. The algorithm works directly at zero temperature and defines an approximate…
We have studied numerically the states reached in a quench from various temperatures in the one-dimensional fully-connected Kotliar, Anderson and Stein Ising spin glass model. This is a model where there are long-range interactions between…
The richness of the mean-field solution of simple glasses leaves many of its features challenging to interpret. A minimal model that illuminates glass physics the same way the random energy model clarifies spin glass behavior would…
