Abstract

The nature of the frozen spin glass phase is discussed, paying particular attention to the methods of statistical mechanics needed to treat it. A phenomenological approach is advocated. Suggestions are made for the characterization of the possible frozen components and their time, temperature, field, and system-size (N) dependence. The paper is based on reference 1 but some discussion and Monte Carlo results are new.
