We consider a tapping dynamics, analogous to that in experiments on granular media, on spin glasses and ferromagnets on random thin graphs. Between taps, zero temperature single spin flip dynamics takes the system to a metastable state.…

We study analytically M-spin-flip stable states in disordered short-ranged Ising models (spin glasses and ferromagnets) in all dimensions and for all M. Our approach is primarily dynamical and is based on the convergence of a…

We calculate the mean number of metastable states of an Ising ferromagnet on random thin graphs of fixed connectivity c. We find, as for mean field spin glasses that this mean increases exponentially with the number of sites, and is the…

We analyze the steady state regime of systems interpolating between spin glasses and ferromagnets under a tapping dynamics recently introduced by analogy with the dynamics of mechanically perturbed granular media. A crossover from a second…

A mean-field model of Ising spin glass with the Hamiltonian being a sum of the infinite-range ferromagnetic and random antiferromagnetic interactions is studied. It is shown that this model has phase transition in external magnetic field…

The zero-temperature dynamics of simple models such as Ising ferromagnets provides, as an alternative to the mean-field situation, interesting examples of dynamical systems with many attractors (absorbing configurations, blocked…

In this paper we develop a method introduced by one of us to study metastable states in spin glasses. We consider a `potential function' defined as the free energy of a system at a given temperature $T$ constrained to have a fixed overlap…

We investigate the final state of zero-temperature Ising ferromagnets which are endowed with single-spin flip Glauber dynamics. Surprisingly, the ground state is generally not reached for zero initial magnetization. In two dimensions, the…

We consider zero-temperature, stochastic Ising models with nearest-neighbor interactions in two and three dimensions. Using both symmetric and asymmetric initial configurations, we study the evolution of the system with time. We examine the…

We consider a ferromagnetic Ising chain evolving under Kawasaki dynamics at zero temperature. We investigate the statistics of the metastable configurations in which the system gets blocked (statistics of energy, spin correlations,…

Using the zero-temperature Metropolis dynamics, the time decay of the remanent magnetization in the $\pm J$ Edward-Anderson spin glass model with a uniform random distribution of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions has been…

Systems with quenched disorder possess complex energy landscapes that are challenging to explore under the conventional Monte Carlo method. In this work, we implement an efficient entropy sampling scheme for accurate computation of the…

A one-dimensional Ising model with nearest neighbour interactions is applied to study compaction processes in granular media. An equivalent particle-hole picture is introduced, with the holes being associated to the domain walls of the…

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…

The dynamic evolution at zero temperature of a uniform Ising ferromagnet on a square lattice is followed by Monte Carlo computer simulations. The system always eventually reaches a final, absorbing state, which sometimes coincides with a…

We investigate the relaxation of homogeneous Ising ferromagnets on finite lattices with zero-temperature spin-flip dynamics. On the square lattice, a frozen two-stripe state is apparently reached approximately 1/4 of the time, while the…

The search for problems where quantum adiabatic optimization might excel over classical optimization techniques has sparked a recent interest in inducing a finite-temperature spin-glass transition in quasi-planar topologies. We have…

We discuss a Statistical Mechanics approach in the manner of Edwards to the ``inherent states'' (defined as the stable configurations in the potential energy landscape) of glassy systems and granular materials. We show that at stationarity…

In this paper we study metastable behaviour at low temperature of Glauber spin-flip dynamics on random graphs. We fix a large number of vertices and randomly allocate edges according to the Configuration Model with a prescribed degree…

In this letter we present a dynamical study of the structure of metastable states (corresponding to TAP solutions) in a mean-field spin-glass model. After reviewing known results of the statical approach, we use dynamics: starting from an…
