Non-equilibrium dynamics in quantum and classical many-body spin systems: strong zero modes and large deviations

The work presented in this thesis is divided into two main parts: strong zero modes in quantum spin chains with open boundaries and large deviations in classical spin systems. The results concerning the strong zero modes are presented in chapters 2 and 3, while chapter 4 contains the results about...
