Low autocorrelation binary sequences: exact enumeration and optimization by evolutionary strategies

TL;DR: The highest merit factors ever reached for chains of length 81≤N≤201 are found and an evolutionary strategy is introduced, describing the properties of the search algorithm and comparing its results to those of other heuristic methods such as simulated annealing.

On the static and dynamical transition in the mean-field Potts glass

TL;DR: In this paper, the static and dynamical transition in the mean-field p-state Potts glass was investigated by numerical solution of saddle-point equations and the main predictions of the theory were compared with numerical simulations.

Scaling and universality in continuous length combinatorial optimization.

TL;DR: It is speculated that the scaling exponent could serve to classify combinatorial optimization problems of this general kind into a small number of distinct categories, similar to universality classes in statistical physics.

Genetic embedded matching approach to ground states in continuous-spin systems.

TL;DR: An efficient optimization heuristic for the much less discussed case of continuous spins is introduced, based on the combination of an embedding of Ising spins into the continuous rotators and an appropriate variant of a genetic algorithm.

Zero-temperature scaling and simulated annealing

TL;DR: Simulated annealing with a more complicated set of moves than single-spin flips was applied to the one-dimensional Ising spin glass in this article, and the explicit connection between the residual entropy at T = 0 and the number of metastable states was shown to be also true for these more complicated moves.
