On the mean eld approach to glassy systems
نویسنده
چکیده
In these lectures I will study some properties that are shared by many glassy systems. I will shown how some of these properties can be understood in the framework of the mean eld approach based on the replica method and I will discuss which are the diiculties which we have to face when we apply the replica method to realistic short range models. We nally present a partially successfully application of the replica method to soft sphere glasses.

Glassy Behavior of Random Field Magnets
The key unresolved feature of the random eld Ising model is the complex, history dependent behavior found both in experiments and numerical simulations. It appears that for strong enough disorder, and low temperatures, the system falls out of equilibrium, displaying anomalously slow relaxation and other features characteristic of glassy materials. Recently, it has been proposed that this behavi...
متن کاملAn Efficient Meta Heuristic Algorithm to Solve Economic Load Dispatch Problems
The Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) problems in power generation systems are to reduce the fuel cost by reducing the total cost for the generation of electric power. This paper presents an efficient Modified Firefly Algorithm (MFA), for solving ELD Problem. The main objective of the problems is to minimize the total fuel cost of the generating units having quadratic cost functions subjected to lim...

This paper presents a biogeography-based optimization (BBO) algorithm to solve the economic loadDispatch (ELD) problem with generator constraints in thermal plants. The applied method can solvethe ELD problem with constraints like transmission losses, ramp rate limits, and prohibited operatingzones. Biogeography is the science of the geographical distribution of biological species. The modelsof...
متن کاملRole of free energy landscape in the dynamics of mean field glassy systems
In this paper we expose the results of our recent work on the dynamical TAP approach to mean field glassy systems. Our aim is to clarify the connection between free energy landscape and out of equilibrium dynamics in solvable models. Frequently qualitative explanations of glassy behaviour are based on the “Free Energy Landscape Paradigm”. If its relevance for equilibrium properties is clear, th...
