Experimental measurements of nonlinear dielectric response in glassformers like supercooled glycerol or propylene carbonate have been interpreted as providing evidence for a growing thermodynamic length scale when lowering temperature. A…

We perform Monte Carlo simulations of large two-dimensional Gaussian Ising spin glasses down to very low temperatures $\beta=1/T=50$. Equilibration is ensured by using a cluster algorithm including Monte Carlo moves consisting of flipping…

We propose that glass-forming liquids are intrinsically under the influences of both fluctuating interactions and random fields well-known in the field of spin systems. This is due to the frustration between the isotropic and anisotropic…

We consider the effect of droplet excitations in the random first order transition theory of glasses on the configurational entropy. The contribution of these excitations is estimated both at and above the ideal glass transition…

We consider the common spin-1/2 XX-model in one dimension with open boundary conditions and a large but finite number of spins. The system is in thermal equilibrium at times t<0, and is subject to a weak local perturbation (quantum quench)…

Aging in spin glasses (and in some other systems) reveals astonishing effects of `rejuvenation and memory' upon temperature changes. In this paper, we propose microscopic mechanisms (at the scale of spin-spin interactions) which can be at…

Excluding some special cases, computing the critical inverse-temperature $\beta_c$ of a mixed $p$-spin spin glass model is a difficult task. The only known method to calculate its value for a general model requires the full power of the…

A diathermal wall between two heat baths at different temperatures can be mimicked by a layer of independent spin pairs with some internal energy and where each spin $\sigma_a$ is flipped by thermostat $a$ ($a=1,2$). The transition rates…

We discuss a general formalism that allows study of transitions over barriers in spin glasses with long-range interactions that contain large but finite number, $N$, of spins. We apply this formalism to the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model…

Using Monte Carlo simulations, we study in detail the overlap distribution for individual samples for several spin-glass models including the infinite-range Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, short-range Edwards-Anderson models in three and…

I describe a class of spin models with short--range plaquette interactions whose static equilibrium properties are trivial but which display glassy dynamics at low temperatures. These models have a dual description in terms of free defects…

New low frequency ac susceptibility measurements on two different spin glasses show that cooling/heating the sample at a constant rate yields an essentially reversible (but rate dependent) X(T) curve; a downward relaxation of X occurs…

Spin glasses occupy a unique place in condensed matter: they freeze collectively while remaining struc-turally disordered, and they exhibit slow, history-dependent dynamics that reflect an exceptionally rug-ged free-energy landscape. This…

We consider the time to equilibrium for the Langevin dynamics of the spherical $p$-spin glass model of system size $N$. We show that the log-Sobolev constant and spectral gap are order $1$ in $N$ at sufficiently high temperature whereas the…

Spin-models, where the $N$ spins interact pairwise with a $SU(n_f)$ symmetry preserving hamiltonian, famously simplify in the large $n_f$, $N$ limits, as derived by Sachdev and Ye when exploring mean-field behavior of spin-glasses. We…

If we have a system of binary variables and we measure the pairwise correlations among these variables, then the least structured or maximum entropy model for their joint distribution is an Ising model with pairwise interactions among the…

We use a random pinning procedure to study amorphous order in two glassy spin models. On increasing the concentration of pinned spins at constant temperature, we find a sharp crossover (but no thermodynamic phase transition) from bulk…

The recently introduced ``mobile-bond'' model for two-dimensional spin glasses is studied. The model is characterized by an annealing temperature T_q. On the basis of Monte Carlo simulations of small systems it has been claimed that this…

Spin glass dynamics is a strong function of spatial dimensionality $D$. The lower critical dimension is close to 2.5, so that, in two dimensions, the condensation temperature $T_\text{g}=0$, and only fluctuations are present at finite…

We investigate the connection between the well known Sherrington-Kirkpatrick Ising Spin Glass and the corresponding Lattice Gas model by analyzing the relation between their thermodynamical functions. We present results of replica approach…
