This article is mostly based on a talk I gave at the March 2021 meeting (virtual) of the American Physical Society on the occasion of receiving the Dannie Heineman prize for Mathematical Physics from the American Institute of Physics and the American Physical Society. I am greatly indebted to many colleagues for the results leading to this award. To name them all would take up all the space allotted to this article. (I have had more than 200 collaborators so far), I will therefore mention just a few: Michael Aizenman, Bernard Derrida, Shelly Goldstein, Elliott Lieb, Oliver Penrose, Errico Presutti, Gene Speer and Herbert Spohn. I am grateful to all of my collaborators, listed and unlisted. I would also like to acknowledge here long time support form the AFOSR and the NSF.

Similarity analysis is used to identify the control parameter $R_A$ for the subset of avalanching systems that can exhibit Self- Organized Criticality (SOC). This parameter expresses the ratio of driving to dissipation. The transition to SOC, when th e number of excited degrees of freedom is maximal, is found to occur when $R_A to 0$. This is in the opposite sense to (Kolmogorov) turbulence, thus identifying a deep distinction between turbulence and SOC and suggesting an observable property that could distinguish them. A corollary of this similarity analysis is that SOC phenomenology, that is, power law scaling of avalanches, can persist for finite $R_A$, with the same $R_A to 0$ exponent, if the system supports a sufficiently large range of lengthscales; necessary for SOC to be a candidate for physical ($R_A$ finite) systems.

We consider the product of n complex non-Hermitian, independent random matrices, each of size NxN with independent identically distributed Gaussian entries (Ginibre matrices). The joint probability distribution of the complex eigenvalues of the produ ct matrix is found to be given by a determinantal point process as in the case of a single Ginibre matrix, but with a more complicated weight given by a Meijer G-function depending on n. Using the method of orthogonal polynomials we compute all eigenvalue density correlation functions exactly for finite N and fixed n. They are given by the determinant of the corresponding kernel which we construct explicitly. In the large-N limit at fixed n we first determine the microscopic correlation functions in the bulk and at the edge of the spectrum. After unfolding they are identical to that of the Ginibre ensemble with n=1 and thus universal. In contrast the microscopic correlations we find at the origin differ for each n>1 and generalise the known Bessel-law in the complex plane for n=2 to a new hypergeometric kernel 0_F_n-1.
We discuss spin models on complete graphs in the mean-field (infinite-vertex) limit, especially the classical XY model, the Toy model of the Higgs sector, and related generalizations. We present a number of results coming from the theory of large dev iations and Steins method, in particular, Cramer and Sanov-type results, limit theorems with rates of convergence, and phase transition behavior for these models.

The probability distribution of a function of a subsystem conditioned on the value of the function of the whole, in the limit when the ratio of their values goes to zero, has a limit law: It equals the unconditioned marginal probability distribution weighted by an exponential factor whose exponent is uniquely determined by the condition. We apply this theorem to explain the canonical equilibrium ensemble of a system in contact with a heat reservoir. Since the theorem only requires analysis at the level of the function of the subsystem and reservoir, it is applicable even without the knowledge of the composition of the reservoir itself, which extends the applicability of the canonical ensemble. Furthermore, we generalize our theorem to a model with strong interaction that contributes an additional term to the exponent, which is beyond the typical case of approximately additive functions. This result is new in both physics and mathematics, as a theory for the Gibbs conditioning principle for strongly correlated systems. A corollary provides a precise formulation of what a temperature bath is in probabilistic term
We first reproduce on the Janus and Janus II computers a milestone experiment that measures the spin-glass coherence length through the lowering of free-energy barriers induced by the Zeeman effect. Secondly we determine the scaling behavior that all ows a quantitative analysis of a new experiment reported in the companion Letter [S. Guchhait and R. Orbach, Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 157203 (2017)]. The value of the coherence length estimated through the analysis of microscopic correlation functions turns out to be quantitatively consistent with its measurement through macroscopic response functions. Further, non-linear susceptibilities, recently measured in glass-forming liquids, scale as powers of the same microscopic length.
