We have simulated, using parallel tempering, the three-dimensional Ising spin glass model with binary couplings in a helicoidal geometry. The largest lattice $(L=20)$ has been studied dedicated computer (the SUE machine). obtained, measuring correlation length critical region, strong evidence for second-order finite-temperature phase transition, ruling out other possible scenarios like Kosterlitz-Thouless transition. Precise values \ensuremath{\nu} and \ensuremath{\eta} exponents are also presented.

We study the phase diagram of site-diluted Ising model in a wide dilution range, through Monte Carlo simulations and finite-size scaling techniques. Our results for critical exponents universal cumulants turn out to be independent, but only after proper infinite volume extrapolation, taking into account leading corrections-to-scaling terms.

The Mpemba effect occurs when a hot system cools faster than an initially colder one, both are refrigerated in the same thermal reservoir. Using custom-built supercomputer Janus II, we study spin glasses and show that it is nonequilibrium process, governed by coherence length ξ of system. bath temperature lies glassy phase, but not necessary for protocol to cross critical temperature. In fact, follows from strong relationship between internal energy turns out be sure-tell sign being phase....

Using finite-size scaling techniques we obtain accurate results for critical quantities of the Ising model and site percolation, in three dimensions. We pay special attention to parametrizing corrections-to-scaling, which is necessary bring systematic errors below statistical ones.

We study the behavior of string tension in SU(3) lattice pure-gauge theory close to deconfining critical point. find very large correlation lengths, increasing with size. This result is strongly suggestive a second-order phase transition, and excludes presence strong first-order transition.

We study numerically the nonequilibrium dynamics of Ising spin glass, for a time spanning 11 orders magnitude, thus approaching experimentally relevant scale (i.e., seconds). introduce novel analysis techniques to compute coherence length in model-independent way. present strong evidence replicon correlator and overlap equivalence. The emerging picture is compatible with noncoarsening behavior.

Spin glasses are a longstanding model for the sluggish dynamics that appears at glass transition. However, spin differ from structural crucial feature: they enjoy time reversal symmetry. This symmetry can be broken by applying an external magnetic field, but embarrassingly little is known about critical behaviour of in field. In this context, space dimension crucial. Simulations easier to interpret large number dimensions, one must work below upper (i.e., d<6) order results have relevance...

We perform equilibrium parallel-tempering simulations of the 3D Ising Edwards-Anderson spin glass in a field. A traditional analysis shows no signs phase transition. Yet, we encounter dramatic fluctuations behaviour model: Averages over all data only describe small fraction it. Therefore develop new approach to study system, by classifying measurements as function conditioning variate. propose finite-size scaling based on probability distribution variate, which may accelerate convergence...

We find a dynamic effect in the non-equilibrium dynamics of spin glass that closely parallels equilibrium temperature chaos. This effect, we name chaos, is spatially heterogeneous to large degree. The key controlling quantity time-growing spin-glass coherence length. Our detailed characterization chaos paves way for analysis recent and forthcoming experiments. work has been made possible thanks most massive simulation date dynamics, carried out on Janus~II custom-built supercomputer.

The phase diagram of the double perovskites type ${\mathrm{Sr}}_{2\ensuremath{-}x}{\mathrm{La}}_{x}{\mathrm{FeMoO}}_{6}$ is analyzed, with and without disorder due to antisites. In addition an homogeneous half metallic ferrimagnetic in absence doping disorder, we find antiferromagnetic phases at large dopings, other lower saturation magnetization, presence disorder.

We study the site-diluted Ising model in two dimensions with Monte Carlo simulations. Using finite-size scaling techniques we compute critical exponents observing deviations from pure ones. The differences can be explained as effects of logarithmic corrections, without requiring us to change universality class.
