Deep learning has advanced efficient chemical process simulations on the surfaces, accelerating high-throughput materials screening and rational design in heterogeneous catalysis, energy storage and conversion, and gas separation. However,…
The Hopfield model provides a paradigmatic framework for associative memory. Its classical implementation, based on the Hebbian learning rule, suffers from catastrophic forgetting: when one attempts storing too many patterns, the network…
The spherical version of the Hopfield model for pattern recognition is considered in the static limit. Structures inside the patterns are modeled by Gaussian random variables that reward correlation between pairs of spins in a given…
This study numerically investigates magnetisation reversal processes driven by an external magnetic field in three-dimensional antiferromagnetic spin models with weak random field disorder. Considering an extremely weak disorder and low…
In this paper we introduce and study the Maximum-Average Subtensor ($p$-MAS) problem, in which one wants to find a subtensor of size $k$ of a given random tensor of size $N$, both of order $p$, with maximum sum of entries. We are motivated…
We study the competition between random multiplicative growth and redistribution/migration in the mean-field limit, when the number of sites is very large but finite. We find that for static random growth rates, migration should be strong…
Several recent works have aimed to design algorithms for optimizing the Hamiltonians of spin glass models from statistical physics. While Montanari (2018) eventually gave a sophisticated message-passing algorithm to do this nearly optimally…
We study how finite-window sampling (random spatial truncation) and reciprocal-space radial binning influence the detection of hyperuniformity in disordered systems. Using thirteen representative two-dimensional simulation systems (two…
For disordered systems within the random first-order transition (RFOT) universality class, such as structural glasses and certain spin glasses, the role played by activated relaxation processes is rich to the point of perplexity. Over the…
We investigate the fate and robustness of topological strong zero modes (SZMs) in random Ising-Majorana chains using the SZM fidelity, ${\cal F}_{\rm SZM}$, as a many-body diagnostic that quantifies how accurately SZM operators map the {\it…
We develop an analytic approach to evaluating the density $\rho ({\cal E},\Gamma)$ of complex resonance poles with real energies $\mathcal{E}$ and widths $\Gamma$ in the pure reflection problem from a one-dimensional disordered sample with…
We train machine learning algorithms to infer the entanglement structure of disordered long-range interacting quantum spin chains by learning from the strong disorder renormalisation group (SDRG) method. The system consists of…
Oscillatory dynamics are common features of complex networks, often playing essential roles in regulating function. Across scales from gene regulatory networks to ecosystems, delayed feedback mechanisms are key drivers of system-scale…
Motivated by recent experimental realizations of programmable spin models with long-range interactions, we investigate the non-equilibrium dynamics of the Power-of-Two (PWR2) model. This model consists of sparse long-range couplings between…
Within the framework of the random first-order transition theory of glasses, we discuss the statistics of thermal avalanches, the large scale rearrangements in driven amorphous systems near their instability. Stringy excitations yield…
We introduce a spectral approach to characterizing the three-dimensional Edwards-Anderson spin glass. By analyzing the eigenvalue statistics of overlap matrices constructed from two-dimensional cross-sections, we identify a crossover from…
Based on extensive parallel-tempering Monte Carlo simulations, we investigate the relationship between cluster percolation and equilibrium ordering phenomena in the three-dimensional $\pm J$ random-bond Ising model as one varies the…
In the last decades, many efforts have focused on analyzing typical-case hardness in optimization and inference problems. Some recent work has pointed out that polynomial algorithms exist, running with a time that grows more than linearly…
Topological Anderson insulators represent a class of disorder-induced, nontrivial topological states of matter. In this study, we propose a feasible strategy to unveil and design topological Anderson insulators protected by latent…
A Berry crystal is a random superposition of N plane waves of equal amplitude and fixed wavevector magnitude, propagating in different directions. Using numerical simulations of wavepacket dynamics, spectral analysis based on…
