The emergence of glassy behavior of the random field Ising model (RFIM) is investigated using an extended mean-field theory approach. Using this formulation, systematic corrections to the standard Bragg-Williams theory can be incorporated,…
We use computer simulations to investigate the extended phase diagram of a supercooled liquid linearly coupled to a quenched reference configuration. An extensive finite-size scaling analysis demonstrates the existence of a random-field…
We investigate thermodynamic phase transitions of the joint presence of spin glass (SG) and random field (RF) using a random graph model that allows us to deal with the quenched disorder. Therefore, the connectivity becomes a controllable…
Developing a unified theory describing both ductile and brittle yielding constitutes a fundamental challenge of non-equilibrium statistical physics. Recently, it has been proposed that the nature of the yielding transition is controlled by…
Dynamics of Ising models is a much studied phenomenon and has emerged as a rich field of present-day research. An important dynamical feature commonly studied is the quenching phenomenon below the critical temperature. In this thesis we…
We present a numerical study of the zero-temperature response of the Gaussian random-field Ising model (RFIM) to a slowly varying external field, allowing the system to be trapped in microscopic configurations that are not fully metastable.…
We analyze critical points that can be induced in glassy systems by the presence of constraints. These critical points are predicted by the Mean Field Thermodynamic approach and they are precursors of the standard glass transition in…
As in the preceding paper we aim at identifying the effective theory that describes the fluctuations of the local overlap with an equilibrium reference configuration close to a putative thermodynamic glass transition. We focus here on the…
With respect to usual thermal ferromagnetic transitions, the zero-temperature finite-disorder critical point of the Random-field Ising model (RFIM) has the peculiarity to involve some 'droplet' exponent $\theta$ that enters the generalized…
We aim at an understanding of the dynamical properties of a periodically driven damped harmonic oscillator coupled to a Random Field Ising Model (RFIM) at zero temperature, which is capable to show complex hysteresis. The system is a…
In this thesis, we discuss nonequilibrium ferromagnetic random field Ising model (RFIM) with zero temperature Glauber single spin flip dynamics. We briefly review the hysteresis in ferromagnets and Barkhausen effect. We discuss some earlier…
The phase diagram and the thermodynamics of the random field Ising model (RFIM) defined on a family of diamond hierarchical lattices of arbitrary dimension and scaling factor $b=2$ is investigated. The phase diagram is studied considering…
We analyze the Blume-Emery-Griffiths model with disordered magnetic interaction displaying the inverse freezing phenomenon. The behaviour of this spin-1 model in crystal field is studied throughout the phase diagram and the transition and…
A longstanding open question in the theory of disordered systems is whether short-range models, such as the random field Ising model or the Edwards-Anderson model, can indeed have the famous properties that characterize mean-field spin…
Perturbation theory for the random-field Ising model (RFIM) has the infamous attribute that it predicts at all orders a dimensional-reduction property for the critical behavior that turns out to be wrong in low dimension. Guided by our…
The random-field Ising model (RFIM) is one of the simplest statistical-mechanical models that captures the anomalous irreversible collective response seen in a wide range of physical, biological, or socio-economic situations in the presence…
Glass transition where viscosity of liquids increases dramatically upon decrease of temperature without any major change in structural properties, remains one of the most challenging problems in condensed matter physics (Cavagna, 2009;…
We investigate the replica symmetry broken (RSB) phase of spin glass (SG) models in a random field defined on Bethe lattices at zero temperature. From the properties of the RSB solution we deduce a closed equation for the extreme values of…
This paper deals with the stochastic Ising model with a temperature shrinking to zero as time goes to infinity. A generalization of the Glauber dynamics is considered, on the basis of the existence of simultaneous flips of some spins. Such…
We introduce an approach to derive an effective scalar field theory for the glass transition; the fluctuating field is the overlap between equilibrium configurations. We apply it to the case of constrained liquids for which the introduction…
