Limiting dynamics for spherical models of spin glasses at high temperature

We analyze the coupled non-linear integro-differential equations whose solutions is the thermodynamical limit of the empirical correlation and response functions in the Langevin dynamics for spherical p-spin disordered mean-field models. We provide a mathematically rigorous derivation of their FDT solution (for the high temperature regime) and of certain key properties of this solution, which are in agreement with earlier derivations based on physical grounds

Dynamic phase diagram of the REM

By studying the two-time overlap correlation function, we give a comprehensive analysis of the phase diagram of the Random Hopping Dynamics of the Random Energy Model (REM) on time-scales that are exponential in the volume. These results are derived from the convergence properties of the clock process associated to the dynamics and fine properties of the simple random walk in the $n$-dimensional discrete cube.Comment: This paper is in large part based on the unpublished work arXiv:1008.3849. In particular, the analysis of the overlap correlation function is new as well as the study of the high temperature and short time-scale transition line between aging and stationarit

Universality of REM-like aging in mean field spin glasses

Aging has become the paradigm to describe dynamical behavior of glassy systems, and in particular spin glasses. Trap models have been introduced as simple caricatures of effective dynamics of such systems. In this Letter we show that in a wide class of mean field models and on a wide range of time scales, aging occurs precisely as predicted by the REM-like trap model of Bouchaud and Dean. This is the first rigorous result about aging in mean field models except for the REM and the spherical model.Comment: 4 page

Slow movement of a random walk on the range of a random walk in the presence of an external field

In this article, a localisation result is proved for the biased random walk on the range of a simple random walk in high dimensions (d \geq 5). This demonstrates that, unlike in the supercritical percolation setting, a slowdown effect occurs as soon a non-trivial bias is introduced. The proof applies a decomposition of the underlying simple random walk path at its cut-times to relate the associated biased random walk to a one-dimensional random walk in a random environment in Sinai's regime

The Relationship between Psychological Empowerment of Employees with Corporate Entrepreneurship of Guilan Payamnour University

ABSTRACT The present study had been carried out aiming to study the relationship between psychological empowerment of employees with corporate entrepreneurship 0f Guilan Payamnour University. Given the growing importance of empowerment in organizations, although barriers (structural, behavioral and environmental) has been much in the way of organizations, generally, managers due to lack of a clear concept of empowerment, negative attitudes toward subordinates, fear of losing power and fear being surplus to requirements are avoiding from implementation of empowerment programs in organizations. Human resource development through empowering them in large-scale can be caused entrepreneurship within an organization. The goal of this research is operational and descriptive correlation method is used in this research. The population of this research is 208 experts from the centers of Guilan Payamnour University who 135 one were selected as sample based on Morgan Krejcie table in statiffied-random method. Results showed a significant relationship between psychological empowerment and corporate entrepreneurship. Also, among the dimensions of psychological empowerment, trust variable has a significant relationship with the corporate entrepreneurship

Aging in the random energy model

In this letter we announce rigorous results on the phenomenon of aging in the Glauber dynamics of the random energy model and their relation to Bouchaud's 'REM-like' trap model. We show that, below the critical temperature, if we consider a time-scale that diverges with the system size in such a way that equilibrium is almost, but not quite reached on that scale, a suitably defined autocorrelation function has the same asymptotic behaviour than its analog in the trap model.Comment: 4pp, P

Flows driven by Banach space-valued rough paths

We show in this note how the machinery of C^1-approximate flows devised in the work "Flows driven by rough paths", and applied there to reprove and extend most of the results on Banach space-valued rough differential equations driven by a finite dimensional rough path, can be used to deal with rough differential equations driven by an infinite dimensional Banach space-valued weak geometric Holder p-rough paths, for any p>2, giving back Lyons' theory in its full force in a simple way.Comment: 8 page

Ergodicity and Slowing Down in Glass-Forming Systems with Soft Potentials: No Finite-Temperature Singularities

The aim of this paper is to discuss some basic notions regarding generic glass forming systems composed of particles interacting via soft potentials. Excluding explicitly hard-core interaction we discuss the so called `glass transition' in which super-cooled amorphous state is formed, accompanied with a spectacular slowing down of relaxation to equilibrium, when the temperature is changed over a relatively small interval. Using the classical example of a 50-50 binary liquid of N particles with different interaction length-scales we show that (i) the system remains ergodic at all temperatures. (ii) the number of topologically distinct configurations can be computed, is temperature independent, and is exponential in N. (iii) Any two configurations in phase space can be connected using elementary moves whose number is polynomially bounded in N, showing that the graph of configurations has the `small world' property. (iv) The entropy of the system can be estimated at any temperature (or energy), and there is no Kauzmann crisis at any positive temperature. (v) The mechanism for the super-Arrhenius temperature dependence of the relaxation time is explained, connecting it to an entropic squeeze at the glass transition. (vi) There is no Vogel-Fulcher crisis at any finite temperature T>0Comment: 10 pages, 9 figures, submitted to PR
