The aging in a Heisenberg-like spin glass Ag(11 at% Mn) is investigated by measurements of the zero field cooled magnetic relaxation at a constant temperature after small temperature shifts $|Delta T/T_g| < 0.012$. A crossover from fully accumulative to non-accumulative aging is observed, and by converting time scales to length scales using the logarithmic growth law of the droplet model, we find a quantitative evidence that positive and negative temperature shifts cause an equivalent restart of aging (rejuvenation) in terms of dynamical length scales. This result supports the existence of a unique overlap length between a pair of equilibrium states in the spin glass system.

We find a dynamic effect in the non-equilibrium dynamics of a spin glass that closely parallels equilibrium temperature chaos. This effect, that we name dynamic temperature chaos, is spatially heterogeneous to a large degree. The key controlling quantity is the time-growing spin-glass coherence length. Our detailed characterization of dynamic temperature chaos paves the way for the analysis of recent and forthcoming experiments. This work has been made possible thanks to the most massive simulation to date of non-equilibrium dynamics, carried out on the Janus~II custom-built supercomputer.
Domain-wall free-energy $delta F$, entropy $delta S$, and the correlation function, $C_{rm temp}$, of $delta F$ are measured independently in the four-dimensional $pm J$ Edwards-Anderson (EA) Ising spin glass. The stiffness exponent $theta$, the fractal dimension of domain walls $d_{rm s}$ and the chaos exponent $zeta$ are extracted from the finite-size scaling analysis of $delta F$, $delta S$ and $C_{rm temp}$ respectively well inside the spin-glass phase. The three exponents are confirmed to satisfy the scaling relation $zeta=d_{rm s}/2-theta$ derived by the droplet theory within our numerical accuracy. We also study bond chaos induced by random variation of bonds, and find that the bond and temperature perturbations yield the universal chaos effects described by a common scaling function and the chaos exponent. These results strongly support the appropriateness of the droplet theory for the description of chaos effect in the EA Ising spin glasses.
We study the spectrum of the Hessian of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model near T=0, whose eigenvalues are the masses of the bare propagators in the expansion around the mean-field solution. In the limit $Tll 1$ two regions can be identified. The first for $x$ close to 0, where $x$ is the Parisi replica symmetry breaking scheme parameter. In this region the spectrum of the Hessian is not trivial, and maintains the structure of the full replica symmetry breaking state found at higher temperatures. In the second region $Tll x leq 1$ as $Tto 0$, the bands typical of the full replica symmetry breaking state collapse and only two eigenvalues are found: a null one and a positive one. We argue that this region has a droplet-like behavior. In the limit $Tto 0$ the width of the full replica symmetry breaking region shrinks to zero and only the droplet-like scenario survives.
The spin glass behavior near zero temperature is a complicated matter. To get an easier access to the spin glass order parameter $Q(x)$ and, at the same time, keep track of $Q_{ab}$, its matrix aspect, and hence of the Hessian controlling stability, we investigate an expansion of the replicated free energy functional around its ``spherical approximation. This expansion is obtained by introducing a constraint-field and a (double) Legendre Transform expressed in terms of spin correlators and constraint-field correlators. The spherical approximation has the spin fluctuations treated with a global constraint and the expansion of the Legendre Transformed functional brings them closer and closer to the Ising local constraint. In this paper we examine the first contribution of the systematic corrections to the spherical starting point.
