Quantum versus classical annealing: insights from scaling theory and results for spin glasses on 3-regular graphs [PDF]
We discuss an Ising spin glass where each $S=1/2$ spin is coupled antiferromagnetically to three other spins (3-regular graphs). Inducing quantum fluctuations by a time-dependent transverse field, we use out-of-equilibrium quantum Monte Carlo simulations to study dynamic scaling at the quantum glass transition.

Theory of Quantum Annealing of an Ising Spin Glass [PDF]
Probing the lowest energy configuration of a complex system by quantum annealing was recently found to be more effective than its classical, thermal counterpart. By comparing classical and quantum Monte Carlo annealing protocols on the two-dimensional random Ising model (a prototype spin glass), we confirm the superiority of quantum annealing relative ...

Possible ergodic-nonergodic regions in the quantum Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass model and quantum annealing [PDF]
We explore the behavior of order parameter distribution of quantum Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model in the spin glass phase using Monte Carlo technique for the effective Suzuki-Trotter Hamil- tonian at finite temperatures and that at zero temperature ...

Effect of annealing on the tribological behavior of Zr-based bulk metallic glass
Bulk Metallic Glasses (BMGs) are promising materials for several applications owing to their high elastic limit and resistance to permanent deformation. However, BMGs have lower wear resistance than their crystalline counterparts during dry sliding.

Dual time scales in simulated annealing of a two-dimensional Ising spin glass [PDF]
We apply a generalized Kibble-Zurek out-of-equilibrium scaling ansatz to simulated annealing when approaching the spin-glass transition at temperature $T=0$ of the two-dimensional Ising model with random $J= \pm 1$ couplings.
