In the absence of a magnetic field, the most economic conclusion of the combined analysis of equilibrium and non-equilibrium simulations is that an RSB spin glass phase is present in three spatial dimensions. However, in the presence of a field, the lower critical dimension for the de Almeida-Thouless transition seems to be larger than three.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-05-27T16:39:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "replica symmetry breaking", "numerical simulations", "rsb spin glass phase", "spin glass simulations", "computer experiments" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 28, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
