Glass transition is a reversible transition that occurs in most amorphous materials. However, the nature of glass transition remains far from being clarified. A key to understand the glass transition is to clarify what determines the glass…
We show that the effective action of the quantum spherical spin glass is invariant under a generalized form of the Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin(BRST) supersymmetry. The Ward identities associated to this invariance indicate that the spin glass…
The theory of glassy fluctuations can be formulated in terms of disordered effective potentials. While the properties of the average potentials are well understood, the study of the fluctuations has been so far quite limited. Close to the…
Numerical simulations on Ising Spin Glasses show that spin glass transitions do not obey the usual universality rules which hold at canonical second order transitions. On the other hand the dynamics at the approach to the transition appear…
