On the structure of correlations in the three dimensional spin glasses

We investigate the low temperature phase of three-dimensional Edwards-Anderson model with Bernoulli random couplings. We show that at a fixed value $Q$ of the overlap the model fulfills the clustering property: the connected correlation functions between two local overlaps decay as a power whose exponent is independent of $Q$ for all $0\le |Q| < q_{EA}$. Our findings are in agreement with the RSB theory and show that the overlap is a good order parameter.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure

Interaction Flip Identities for non Centered Spin Glasses

We consider spin glass models with non-centered interactions and investigate the effect, on the random free energies, of flipping the interaction in a subregion of the entire volume. A fluctuation bound obtained by martingale methods produces, with the help of integration by parts technique, a family of polynomial identities involving overlaps and magnetizations

Duality in interacting particle systems and boson representation

In the context of Markov processes, we show a new scheme to derive dual processes and a duality function based on a boson representation. This scheme is applicable to a case in which a generator is expressed by boson creation and annihilation operators. For some stochastic processes, duality relations have been known, which connect continuous time Markov processes with discrete state space and those with continuous state space. We clarify that using a generating function approach and the Doi-Peliti method, a birth-death process (or discrete random walk model) is naturally connected to a differential equation with continuous variables, which would be interpreted as a dual Markov process. The key point in the derivation is to use bosonic coherent states as a bra state, instead of a conventional projection state. As examples, we apply the scheme to a simple birth-coagulation process and a Brownian momentum process. The generator of the Brownian momentum process is written by elements of the SU(1,1) algebra, and using a boson realization of SU(1,1) we show that the same scheme is available.Comment: 13 page

Conservative interacting particles system with anomalous rate of ergodicity

We analyze certain conservative interacting particle system and establish ergodicity of the system for a family of invariant measures. Furthermore, we show that convergence rate to equilibrium is exponential. This result is of interest because it presents counterexample to the standard assumption of physicists that conservative system implies polynomial rate of convergence.Comment: 16 pages; In the previous version there was a mistake in the proof of uniqueness of weak Leray solution. Uniqueness had been claimed in a space of solutions which was too large (see remark 2.6 for more details). Now the mistake is corrected by introducing a new class of moderate solutions (see definition 2.10) where we have both existence and uniquenes

Can translation invariant systems exhibit a Many-Body Localized phase?

This note is based on a talk by one of us, F. H., at the conference PSPDE II, Minho 2013. We review some of our recent works related to (the possibility of) Many-Body Localization in the absence of quenched disorder (in particular arXiv:1305.5127,arXiv:1308.6263,arXiv:1405.3279). In these works, we provide arguments why systems without quenched disorder can exhibit `asymptotic' localization, but not genuine localization.Comment: To appear in the Proceedings of the conference Particle systems and PDE's - II, held at the Center of Mathematics of the University of Minho in December 201

Nonequilibrium Microscopic Distribution of Thermal Current in Particle Systems

A nonequilibrium distribution function of microscopic thermal current is studied by a direct numerical simulation in a thermal conducting steady state of particle systems. Two characteristic temperatures of the thermal current are investigated on the basis of the distribution. It is confirmed that the temperature depends on the current direction; Parallel temperature to the heat-flux is higher than antiparallel one. The difference between the parallel temperature and the antiparallel one is proportional to a macroscopic temperature gradient.Comment: 4 page

On the universality of anomalous one-dimensional heat conductivity

In one and two dimensions, transport coefficients may diverge in the thermodynamic limit due to long--time correlation of the corresponding currents. The effective asymptotic behaviour is addressed with reference to the problem of heat transport in 1d crystals, modeled by chains of classical nonlinear oscillators. Extensive accurate equilibrium and nonequilibrium numerical simulations confirm that the finite-size thermal conductivity diverges with the system size $L$ as $\kappa \propto L^\alpha$. However, the exponent $\alpha$ deviates systematically from the theoretical prediction $\alpha=1/3$ proposed in a recent paper [O. Narayan, S. Ramaswamy, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 89}, 200601 (2002)].Comment: 4 pages, submitted to Phys.Rev.
