Aging in a spin glass with logarithmic correlations

We consider a continuous-time random walk on the discrete two dimensional box, driven by the discrete Gaussian Free Field (DGFF) acting as potential: When at a vertex, the walk waits an exponentially distributed time with mean given by the exponential of the field times an inverse temperature parameter and then jumps to one of its neighbors uniformly at random. We prove that when the temperature is below the critical value the walk exhibits ``aging'' at a range of pre-equilibrium time scales: Observed at any such time and then again after an additional time of the same order, there is a positive probability that the walk is found within finite distance from where it was before, with this probability given asymptotically by the Generalized Arcsine Law with a temperature-dependent parameter. We show that this is a consequence of an intricate trapping mechanism which localizes the walk for periods of time which increase with the age of the system, and describe the complex structure of the underlying trapping landscape, which is intimately related to the geometry of the near-extreme level-sets of the DGFF. Altogether, this work demonstrates for the first time an Arcsine-Law aging in the case of a spin-glass-type system with a logarithmically correlated potential, throughout its glassy phase, as predicted in the physic literature.

Convergence of clock processes on infinite graphs and aging in Bouchaud's asymmetric trap model on ${\Bbb Z}^d$

Using a method developed by Durrett and Resnick [22] we establish general criteria for the convergence of properly rescaled clock processes of random dynamics in random environments on infinite graphs. This complements the results of [26], [19], and [20]: put together these results provide a unified framework for proving convergence of clock processes. As a first application we prove that Bouchaud's asymmetric trap model on ${\Bbb Z}^d$ exhibits a normal aging behavior for all $d\geq 2$. Namely, we show that certain two-time correlation functions, among which the classical probability to find the process at the same site at two time points, converge, as the age of the process diverges, to the distribution function of the arcsine law. As a byproduct we prove that the fractional kinetics process ages.

Convergence to extremal processes in random environments and extremal ageing in SK models

This paper extends recent results on aging in mean field spin glasses on short time scales, obtained by Ben Arous and Gun [2] in law with respect to the environment, to results that hold almost surely, respectively in probability, with respect to the environment. It is based on the methods put forward in Gayrard [8,9] and naturally complements Bovier and Gayrard [6].
