Spin glasses are the paradigm of complex systems. These materials present really slow dynamics. However, the nature of the spin glass phase in finite dimensional systems is still controversial. Different theories describing the low…

Spin systems with long-range interactions are "non-extensive" if the strength of the interactions falls off sufficiently slowly with distance. It has been conjectured for ferromagnets, and more recently for spin glasses, that, everywhere in…
