Abstract

Disorder is one of the paradigms of modern physics. It suffices to look through issues of leading physical journals and conference proceedings to see how numerous the papers on the disordered systems are, treating an extremely wide variety of problems, from highly conceptual questions of quantum physics and neurobiology to crack propagation in concrete and spray painting. This certainly reflects the richness and freshness of the field and the continuous “production” of new problems and results.
