Introduction to the dynamics of disordered systems: equilibrium and gradient descent. (English) Zbl 07791850

Summary: This paper contains the lecture notes of the short courses given by one of us (F.Z.) at the summer school Fundamental Problems in Statistical Physics XV, held in Brunico, Italy, in July 2021, and, just before that, at the summer school Glassy Systems and Inter-Disciplinary Applications, held in Cargese, France, in June 2021. The course was a short introductory overview of the dynamics of disordered systems, focused in particular on the equilibrium dynamics (with the associated glass transition), and on the simplest case of off-equilibrium dynamics, namely gradient descent. A few selected topics (and references) are chosen, based on the authors’ own taste and competences, and on pedagogical reasons, without aiming at a complete review of the subject.
