Using dynamical computer simulation we have investigated vortex matters in glass states. A genuine continuous depinning transition is observed at zero temperature, which also governs the low-temperature creep motion. With the notion of scaling, we evaluate in high accuracy critical exponents and scaling functions; we observe a non-Arrhenius creep motion for weak collective pinning where Bragg glass (BrG) is stabilized at equilibrium, while for strong pinning the well-known Arrhenius law is recovered. In both cases, a sharp crossover takes place between depinning and creep at low temperatures. The possible relation between the present results and a recent experimental observation of a second-order like phase boundary inside the BrG phase is discussed.

Large-scale simulations have been performed on the current-driven two-dimensional XY gauge glass model with resistively-shunted-junction dynamics. It is observed that the linear resistivity at low temperatures tends to zero, providing strong evidence of glass transition at finite temperature. Dynamic scaling analysis demonstrates that perfect collapses of current-voltage data can be achieved with the glass transition temperature $T_{g}=0.22$, the correlation length critical exponent $ u =1.8$, and the dynamic critical exponent $ z=2.0$. A genuine continuous depinning transition is found at zero temperature. For creeping at low temperatures, critical exponents are evaluated and a non-Arrhenius creep motion is observed in the glass phase.
We consider the current density distribution function of a flux creep regime in type-II superconductors by mapping the flux creep process to the dynamics of a model with a self-organized criticality. We use an extremal Robin Hood type model which evolves to Beens type critical state to treat magnetic flux penetration into a superconductor and derive an analog of the current-voltage characteristics in the flux creep region.
This article addresses the question whether the magnetic flux of stationary vortices or of half flux quanta generated by frustrated superconducting rings is noisy. It is found that the flux noise generated intrinsically by a superconductor is, in good approximation, not enhanced by stationary vortices. Half flux quanta generated by $pi$-rings are characterized by considerably larger noise.
The structural correlation functions of a weakly disordered Abrikosov lattice are calculated in a functional RG-expansion in $d=4-epsilon$ dimensions. It is shown, that in the asymptotic limit the Abrikosov lattice exhibits still quasi-long-range translational order described by a {it nonuniversal} exponent $eta_{bf G}$ which depends on the ratio of the renormalized elastic constants $kappa ={c}_{66}/ {c}_{11}$ of the flux line (FL) lattice. Our calculations clearly demonstrate three distinct scaling regimes corresponding to the Larkin, the random manifold and the asymptotic Bragg-glass regime. On a wide range of {it intermediate} length scales the FL displacement correlation function increases as a power law with twice the manifold roughness exponent $zeta_{rm RM}(kappa) $, which is also {it nonuniversal}. Correlation functions in the asymptotic regime are calculated in their full anisotropic dependencies and various order parameters are examined. Our results, in particular the $kappa$-dependency of the exponents, are in variance with those of the variational treatment with replica symmetry breaking which allows in principle an experimental discrimination between the two approaches.

Dynamics of vortices in strongly type-II superconductors with strong disorder is investigated within the frustrated three-dimensional XY model. For two typical models in [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 91}, 077002 (2003)] and [Phys. Rev. B {bf 68}, 220502(R) (2003)], a strong evidence for the finite temperature vortex glass transition in the unscreened limit is provided by performing large-scale dynamical simulations. The obtained correlation length exponents and the dynamic exponents in both models are different from each other and from those in the three-dimensional gauge glass model. In addition, a genuine continuous depinning transition is observed at zero temperature for both models. A scaling analysis for the thermal rounding of the depinning transition shows a non-Arrhenius type creep motion in the vortex glass phase, contrarily to the recent studies..
