Local Spin Glass Order in 1D
We study the behavior of one dimensional Kac spin glasses as function of the
interaction range. We verify by Montecarlo numerical simulations the crossover
from local mean field behavior to global paramagnetism. We investigate the
behavior of correlations and find that in the low temperature phase
correlations grow at a faster rate then the interaction range. We completely
characterize the growth of correlations in the vicinity of the mean-field
critical region

Weak Lensing as a Calibrator of the Cluster Mass-Temperature Relation
The abundance of clusters at the present epoch and weak gravitational lensing
shear both constrain roughly the same combination of the power spectrum
normalization sigma_8 and matter energy density Omega_M. The cluster constraint
further depends on the normalization of the mass-temperature relation.
Therefore, combining the weak lensing and cluster abundance data can be used to
accurately calibrate the mass-temperature relation. We discuss this approach
and illustrate it using data from recent surveys.Comment: Matches the version in ApJL. Equation 4 corrected. Improvements in
the analysis move the cluster contours in Fig1 slightly upwards. No changes

Infinitely Many Stochastically Stable Attractors
Let f be a diffeomorphism of a compact finite dimensional boundaryless
manifold M exhibiting infinitely many coexisting attractors. Assume that each
attractor supports a stochastically stable probability measure and that the
union of the basins of attraction of each attractor covers Lebesgue almost all
points of M. We prove that the time averages of almost all orbits under random
perturbations are given by a finite number of probability measures. Moreover
these probability measures are close to the probability measures supported by
the attractors when the perturbations are close to the original map f.Comment: 14 pages, 2 figure
Synchronization time in a hyperbolic dynamical system with long-range interactions
We show that the threshold of complete synchronization in a lattice of
coupled non-smooth chaotic maps is determined by linear stability along the
directions transversal to the synchronization subspace. We examine carefully
the sychronization time and show that a inadequate observation of the system
evolution leads to wrong results. We present both careful numerical experiments
and a rigorous mathematical explanation confirming this fact, allowing for a
generalization involving hyperbolic coupled map lattices.Comment: 22 pages (preprint format), 4 figures - accepted for publication in
