The Comment by Ha et al. [cond-mat/0603787] criticizes our recent result [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 038701 (2006)] that the contact process (CP) on uncorrelated scale-free (SF) networks does not behave according to heterogeneous mean-field (MF) theory. This claim is based in Gaussian ansatz that reproduces previously reported density fluctuations and numerical simulations for a particular value of the degree exponent $gamma$ that seem to fit the MF prediction for the density decay exponent $theta$ and a conjecture of the authors of the comment for the finite-size scaling exponente $alpha=beta/ u_perp$. By means of extensive simulations of the CP on random neighbors (RN) SF networks we show that the MF prediction for $theta4 is incorrect for small degree exponents, while the authors conjecture for $alpha$ is at best only approximately valid for the unphysical case of uncorrelated networks with cut-off $k_c sim N^{1/(gamma-1)}$, which can only be constructed in the RN version of SF networks. Therefore, the main conclusion of our paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 038701 (2006)], the invalidity of MF theory for real uncorrelated SF networks, remains unchallenged.

In Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 219701 (2013) [arXiv:1211.0843] Billoire et al. criticize the conclusions of our Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 177204 (2012), arxiv:1206.0783]. They argue that considering the Edwards-Anderson and Sherrington-Kirkpatrick models at the same temperature is inappropriate and propose an interpretation based on the replica symmetry breaking theory. Here we show that the theory presented in the Comment does not explain our data on the Edwards-Anderson spin glass and we stand by our assertion that the low-temperature behavior of the Edwards-Anderson spin glass model does not appear to be mean-field like.
A recent interesting paper [Yucesoy et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 177204 (2012), arXiv:1206:0783] compares the low-temperature phase of the 3D Edwards-Anderson (EA) model to its mean-field counterpart, the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model. The authors study the overlap distributions P_J(q) and conclude that the two models behave differently. Here we notice that a similar analysis using state-of-the-art, larger data sets for the EA model (generated with the Janus computer) leads to a very clear interpretation of the results of Yucesoy et al., showing that the EA model behaves as predicted by the replica symmetry breaking (RSB) theory.
We reply to the Comment by Mobius and Richter [arXiv:0908.3092, Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 039701 (2010)] on Density of States and Critical Behavior of the Coulomb Glass [arXiv:0805.4640, Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 067205 (2009)] and address the issues raised with our results on the density of states. In addition, we correct our statements about the random displacement version of the Coulomb glass model where the Wigner crystal is not as robust to disorder as stated. Still, our main result of a lack of a finite-temperature transition in the Coulomb glass remains unchallenged.
Randomness and frustration are considered to be the key ingredients for the existence of spin glass (SG) phase. In a canonical system, these ingredients are realized by the random mixture of ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AF) couplings. The study by Bartolozzi {it et al.} [Phys. Rev. B{bf 73}, 224419 (2006)] who observed the presence of SG phase on the AF Ising model on scale free network (SFN) is stimulating. It is a new type of SG system where randomness and frustration are not caused by the presence of FM and AF couplings. To further elaborate this type of system, here we study Heisenberg model on AF SFN and search for the SG phase. The canonical SG Heisenberg model is not observed in $d$-dimensional regular lattices for ($d leq 3$). We can make an analogy for the connectivity density ($m$) of SFN with the dimensionality of the regular lattice. It should be plausible to find the critical value of $m$ for the existence of SG behaviour, analogous to the lower critical dimension ($d_l$) for the canonical SG systems. Here we study system with $m=2,3,4$ and $5$. We used Replica Exchange algorithm of Monte Carlo Method and calculated the SG order parameter. We observed SG phase for each value of $m$ and estimated its corersponding critical temperature.
This is a reply to the comment from Khemani, Moessner and Sondhi (KMS) [arXiv:2109.00551] on our manuscript [Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 030401 (2017)]. The main new claim in KMS is that the short-ranged model does not support an MBL DTC phase. We show that, even for the parameter values they consider and the system sizes they study, the claim is an artifact of an unusual choice of range for the crucial plots. Conducting a standard finite-size scaling analysis on the same data strongly suggests that the system is in fact a many-body localized (MBL) discrete time crystal (DTC). Furthermore, we have carried out additional simulations at larger scales, and provide an analytic argument, which fully support the conclusions of our original paper. We also show that the effect of boundary conditions, described as essential by KMS, is exactly what one would expect, with boundary effects decreasing with increasing system size. The other points in KMS are either a rehashing of points already in the literature (for the long-ranged model) or are refuted by a proper finite-size scaling analysis.
