Complexity emerges as one of the main ingredients dictating the collective behaviour of many systems. Glassy systems constitute one of the most interesting fields of Condensed Matter Physics for which also a considerable amount of experimental data and industial applications have been collected during the last twenty years. Systems exhibiting glassy behaviour are for example: real glasses, spin glasses, vortex flasses in superconductors, protein folding, etc. In this book the reader can see how the present theoretical understanding of these subjects is based on similar techniques and approaches hopefully allowing to develop a unifying structure that underlies the physical mechanism.Lecture Notes in Physics,0075-8450 ;492Condensed matterPhysicsQuantum computersSpintronicsQuantum physicsStatistical physicsDynamical systemsCondensed Matter Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25005Mathematical Methods in Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19013Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19021Quantum Information Technology, Spintronicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31070Quantum Physicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080Complex Systemshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P33000Condensed matter.Physics.Quantum computers.Spintronics.Quantum physics.Statistical physics.Dynamical systems.Condensed Matter Physics.Mathematical Methods in Physics.Numerical and Computational Physics, Simulation.Quantum Information Technology, Spintronics.Quantum Physics.Complex Systems.530.4/13Rubi Migueledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtPerez-Vicente Conradoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910257402603321Complex behaviour of glassy systems1502054UNINA
