A quenched large deviation principle and a Parisi formula for a Perceptron version of the GREM

Probability 2010-11-29 v1

Abstract

We introduce a perceptron version of the Generalized Random Energy Model, and prove a quenched Sanov type large deviation principle for the empirical distribution of the random energies. The dual of the rate function has a representation through a variational formula which is closely related to the Parisi variational formula for the SK-model.
