We consider two fully frustrated Ising models: the antiferromagnetic triangular model in a field of strength, $h=H T k_B$, as well as the Villain model on the square lattice. After a quench from a disordered initial state to T=0 we study the nonequilibrium dynamics of both models by Monte Carlo simulations. In a finite system of linear size, $L$, we define and measure sample dependent first passage time, $t_r$, which is the number of Monte Carlo steps until the energy is relaxed to the ground-state value. The distribution of $t_r$, in particular its mean value, $< t_r(L) >$, is shown to obey the scaling relation, $< t_r(L) > sim L^2 ln(L/L_0)$, for both models. Scaling of the autocorrelation function of the antiferromagnetic triangular model is shown to involve logarithmic corrections, both at H=0 and at the field-induced Kosterlitz-Thouless transition, however the autocorrelation exponent is found to be $H$ dependent.

Motivated by the recent success of tensor networks to calculate the residual entropy of spin ice and kagome Ising models, we develop a general framework to study frustrated Ising models in terms of infinite tensor networks %, i.e. tensor networks that can be contracted using standard algorithms for infinite systems. This is achieved by reformulating the problem as local rules for configurations on overlapping clusters chosen in such a way that they relieve the frustration, i.e. that the energy can be minimized independently on each cluster. We show that optimizing the choice of clusters, including the weight on shared bonds, is crucial for the contractibility of the tensor networks, and we derive some basic rules and a linear program to implement them. We illustrate the power of the method by computing the residual entropy of a frustrated Ising spin system on the kagome lattice with next-next-nearest neighbour interactions, vastly outperforming Monte Carlo methods in speed and accuracy. The extension to finite-temperature is briefly discussed.
We study a model of self propelled particles exhibiting run and tumble dynamics on lattice. This non-Brownian diffusion is characterised by a random walk with a finite persistence length between changes of direction, and is inspired by the motion of bacteria such as E. coli. By defining a class of models with multiple species of particle and transmutation between species we can recreate such dynamics. These models admit exact analytical results whilst also forming a counterpart to previous continuum models of run and tumble dynamics. We solve the externally driven non-interacting and zero-rang
We study the distribution of lengths and other statistical properties of worms constructed by Monte Carlo worm algorithms in the power-law three-sublattice ordered phase of frustrated triangular and kagome lattice Ising antiferromagnets. Viewing each step of the worm construction as a position increment (step) of a random walker, we demonstrate that the persistence exponent $theta$ and the dynamical exponent $z$ of this random walk depend only on the universal power-law exponents of the underlying critical phase, and not on the details of the worm algorithm or the microscopic Hamiltonian. Further, we argue that the detailed balance criterion obeyed by such worm algorithms and the power-law correlations of the underlying equilibrium system together give rise to two related properties of this random walk: First, the steps of the walk are expected to be power-law correlated in time. Second, the position distribution of the walker relative to its starting point is given by the equilibrium position distribution of a particle in an attractive logarithmic central potential of strength $eta_m$, where $eta_m$ is the universal power-law exponent of the equilibrium defect-antidefect correlation function of the underlying spin system. We derive a scaling relation, $z = (2-eta_m)/(1-theta)$, that allows us to express the dynamical exponent $z(eta_m)$ of this process in terms of its persistence exponent $theta(eta_m)$. Our measurements of $z(eta_m)$ and $theta(eta_m)$ are consistent with this relation over a range of values of the universal equilibrium exponent $eta_m$, and yield subdiffusive ($z>2$) values of $z$ in the entire range. Thus we demonstrate that the worms represent a discrete-time realization of a fractional Brownian motion characterized by these properties.
We study persistence in one-dimensional ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor Ising models with parallel dynamics. The probability P(t) that a given spin has not flipped up to time t, when the system evolves from an initial random configuration, decays as P(t) sim 1/t^theta_p with theta_p simeq 0.75 numerically. A mapping to the dynamics of two decoupled A+A to 0 models yields theta_p = 3/4 exactly. A finite size scaling analysis clarifies the nature of dynamical scaling in the distribution of persistent sites obtained under this dynamics.
We consider nonequilibrium probabilistic dynamics in logistic-like maps $x_{t+1}=1-a|x_t|^z$, $(z>1)$ at their chaos threshold: We first introduce many initial conditions within one among $W>>1$ intervals partitioning the phase space and focus on the unique value $q_{sen}<1$ for which the entropic form $S_q equiv frac{1-sum_{i=1}^{W} p_i^q}{q-1}$ {it linearly} increases with time. We then verify that $S_{q_{sen}}(t) - S_{q_{sen}}(infty)$ vanishes like $t^{-1/[q_{rel}(W)-1]}$ [$q_{rel}(W)>1$]. We finally exhibit a new finite-size scaling, $q_{rel}(infty) - q_{rel}(W) propto W^{-|q_{sen}|}$. This establishes quantitatively, for the first time, a long pursued relation between sensitivity to the initial conditions and relaxation, concepts which play central roles in nonextensive statistical mechanics.
