Lower bound on the mixing time of -spin glasses
Anouar Kouraich, Simone Warzel
We show that Glauber dynamics for -spin glass mixes exponentially slowly at inverse temperatures larger than a constant times for large enough . This is done…

The Quantum Random Energy Model is the Limit of Quantum -Spin Glasses
Anouar Kouraich, Chokri Manai, Simone Warzel
We consider the free energy of a class of spin glass models with -spin interactions in a transverse magnetic field. As , the infinite system-size free energy is…

Gibbs state postulate from dynamical stability -- Redundancy of the zeroth law
Vjosa Blakaj, Matthias C. Caro, Anouar Kouraich +2
Gibbs states play a central role in quantum statistical mechanics as the standard description of thermal equilibrium. Traditionally, their use is justified either by a heuristic, a…
