Full versus first-stage replica symmetry breaking in spin glasses
Abstract
A short survey is presented on spin-glass-like states characteristics in complex nonmagnetic systems. We discuss the interplay of the interaction structure and symmetry with the classification of scenarios of the replica symmetry breaking. It is shown that the kind of the transition to the nonergodic state depends not only on the presence or absence of the reflection symmetry but on the number of interacting operators and their individual characteristics.
