  26. Outlook • Spin glass order is an attractive candidate for a quantum critical point in the cuprates, on both theoretical and experimental grounds. (Impurities break the translational symmetry associated with charge-ordered states, and the Imry-Ma argument then prohibits a quantum critical point associated with charge order in the presence of randomness in two dimensions) • A simple mean-field theory of a doped Heisenberg spin glass naturally reproduces all the “marginal” phenomenology. • Needed: better theory of fluctuations in low dimensions
