Numerical study of a short-range p-spin glass model in three dimensions

In this work we study numerically a short range p-spin glass model in three dimensions. The behaviour of the model appears to be remarkably different from mean field predictions. In fact it shares some features typical of models with full replica-symmetry breaking (FRSB). Nevertheless, we believe that the transition that we study is intrinsically different from the FRSB and basically due to non-perturbative contributions. We study both the statics and the dynamics of the system which seem to confirm our conjectures.
