Quantum spin systems occupy a central role in understanding magnetic phenomena and phase transitions at the microscopic level. In these systems, intrinsic angular momentum (spin) interactions give ...

Spin glasses are a unique class of disordered magnetic systems in which competing interactions lead to frustration and an extraordinarily rugged energy landscape. The inherent randomness in these ...

A major advance toward solving the 60-year-old sunflower conjecture is shedding light on how order begins to appear as random systems grow in size. A team of mathematicians and computer scientists has ...
