Universality in the off-equilibrium critical dynamics of the diluted Ising model
We study the off-equilibrium critical dynamics of the three dimensional
diluted Ising model. We compute the dynamical critical exponent and we show
that it is independent of the dilution only when we take into account the
scaling-corrections to the dynamics. Finally we will compare our results with
the experimental data.Comment: Final Version, 5 Latex pages (RevTeX) plus 3 eps figure
Separating the classical and quantum information via quantum cloning
An application of quantum cloning to optimally interface a quantum system
with a classical observer is presented, in particular we describe a procedure
to perform a minimal disturbance measurement on a single qubit by adopting a
1->2 cloning machine followed by a generalized measurement on a single clone
and the anti-clone or on the two clones. Such scheme has been applied to
enhance the transmission fidelity over a lossy quantum channel.Comment: 4 pages, 2figure
Off-Equilibrium Dynamics at Very Low Temperatures in 3d Spin Glasses
We present a high statistic systematic study of the overlap correlation
function well below the critical temperature in the three dimensional Gaussian
spin glass. The off-equilibrium correlation function has been studied
confirming the power law behavior for the dynamical correlation length. In
particular we have computed the dynamical critical exponent in a wide range
of temperatures, , obtaining a dependence in a
very good agreement with recent experiments. Moreover, we report a study of the
violation of the fluctuation-dissipation theorem for very low temperatures
and . All our numerical results avoid a droplet model
interpretation even when is as low as .Comment: LaTeX, 14 pages and 5 figures. A minor arithmetic error corrected and

Replica Symmetry Breaking in Short-Range Spin Glasses: Theoretical Foundations and Numerical Evidences
We discuss replica symmetry breaking (RSB) in spin glasses. We update work in
this area, from both the analytical and numerical points of view. We give
particular attention to the difficulties stressed by Newman and Stein
concerning the problem of constructing pure states in spin glass systems. We
mainly discuss what happens in finite-dimensional, realistic spin glasses.
Together with a detailed review of some of the most important features, facts,
data, and phenomena, we present some new theoretical ideas and numerical
results. We discuss among others the basic idea of the RSB theory, correlation
functions, interfaces, overlaps, pure states, random field, and the dynamical
approach. We present new numerical results for the behaviors of coupled
replicas and about the numerical verification of sum rules, and we review some
of the available numerical results that we consider of larger importance (for
example, the determination of the phase transition point, the correlation
functions, the window overlaps, and the dynamical behavior of the system).Comment: 48 pages, 21 figures. v2: the published versio
Ising spin glass transition in magnetic field out of mean-field
The spin-glass transition in external magnetic field is studied both in and
out of the limit of validity of mean-field theory on a diluted one dimensional
chain of Ising spins where exchange bonds occur with a probability decaying as
the inverse power of the distance. Varying the power in this long-range model
corresponds, in a one-to-one relationship, to change the dimension in
spin-glass short-range models. Evidence for a spin-glass transition in magnetic
field is found also for systems whose equivalent dimension is below the upper
critical dimension at zero magnetic field.Comment: 5 pages, 1 table, 6 figures, data analysis mistake corrected, new

Diluted one-dimensional spin glasses with power law decaying interactions
We introduce a diluted version of the one dimensional spin-glass model with
interactions decaying in probability as an inverse power of the distance. In
this model varying the power corresponds to change the dimension in short-range
models. The spin-glass phase is studied in and out of the range of validity of
the mean-field approximation in order to discriminate between different
theories. Since each variable interacts only with a finite number of others the
cost for simulating the model is drastically reduced with respect to the fully
connected version and larger sizes can be studied. We find both static and
dynamic evidence in favor of the so-called replica symmetry breaking theory.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figures, 2 table
A microscopic description of the aging dynamics: fluctuation-dissipation relations, effective temperature and heterogeneities
We consider the dynamics of a diluted mean-field spin glass model in the
aging regime. The model presents a particularly rich heterogeneous behavior. In
order to catch this behavior, we perform a **spin-by-spin analysis** for a
**given disorder realization**. The results compare well with the outcome of a
static calculation which uses the ``survey propagation'' algorithm of Mezard,
Parisi, and Zecchina [Sciencexpress 10.1126/science.1073287 (2002)]. We thus
confirm the connection between statics and dynamics at the level of single
degrees of freedom. Moreover, working with single-site quantities, we can
introduce a new response-vs-correlation plot, which clearly shows how
heterogeneous degrees of freedom undergo coherent structural rearrangements.
Finally we discuss the general scenario which emerges from our work and
(possibly) applies to more realistic glassy models. Interestingly enough, some
features of this scenario can be understood recurring to thermometric
considerations.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures (7 eps files
Reactor Antineutrinos Signal all over the world
We present an updated estimate of reactor antineutrino signal all over the
world, with particular attention to the sites proposed for existing and future
geo-neutrino experiment. In our calculation we take into account the most
updated data on Thermal Power for each nuclear plant, on reactor antineutrino
spectra and on three neutrino oscillation mechanism.Comment: 4 pages including 1 figur
