Dynamic phase diagram of the REM

Abstract

By studying the two-time overlap correlation function, we give a comprehensive analysis of the phase diagram of the Random Hopping Dynamics of the Random Energy Model (REM) on time-scales that are exponential in the volume. These results are derived from the convergence properties of the clock process associated to the dynamics and fine properties of the simple random walk in the $n$-dimensional discrete cube.

This paper is in large part based on the unpublished work arXiv:1008.3849. In particular, the analysis of the overlap correlation function is new as well as the study of the high temperature and short time-scale transition line between aging and stationarity
