We study a variant of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (S-K) spin glass model with external field, where the random symmetric couplings matrix does not consist of i.i.d. entries but is instead orthogonally invariant in law. For sufficiently high…
To test the stability of the Parisi solution near T=0, we study the spectrum of the Hessian of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model near T=0, whose eigenvalues are the masses of the bare propagators in the expansion around the mean-field…
We propose a simple scaling ansatz for the full replica symmetry breaking solution of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model in the low energy sector. This solution is shown to become exact in the limit x->0, x>>T of the Parisi replica symmetry…
We prove the existence of full replica symmetry breaking (FRSB) for the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model at low temperature. More specifically, we prove that slightly beyond the critical temperature, the Parisi measure for the SK model is…
Based on simple combinatorial arguments, we formulate a generalized cavity method where the Random Overlap Structure (ROSt) probability space of Aizenmann, Sims and Starr is obtained in a constructive way, and use it to give a simplified…
We argue that when the number of spins $N$ in the SK model is finite, the Parisi scheme can be terminated after $K$ replica-symmetry breaking steps, where $K(N) \propto N^{1/6}$. We have checked this idea by Monte Carlo simulations: we…
Parisi's formula is a self-contained description of the infinite-volume limit of the free energy of mean-field spin glass models. We show that this quantity can be recast as the solution of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the Wasserstein…
We prove a Parisi formula for the limiting free energy of multi-species spherical spin glasses with mixed $p$-spin interactions. The upper bound involves a Guerra-style interpolation and requires a convexity assumption on the model's…
We prove that the free energy of any spherical mixed $p$-spin model converges as the dimension $N$ tends to infinity. While the convergence is a consequence of the Parisi formula, the proof we give is independent of the formula and uses the…
This work proves an upper bound for the free energy of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model and its generalizations in terms of the Thouless-Anderson-Palmer (TAP) energy. The result applies to models with spherical or Ising spins and any mixed…
In this paper we study the Parisi variational problem for mixed $p$-spin glasses with Ising spins. Our starting point is a characterization of Parisi measures whose origin lies in the first order optimality conditions for the Parisi…
We construct a N-dimensional Gaussian landscape with multiscale, translation invariant, logarithmic correlations and investigate the statistical mechanics of a single particle in this environment. In the limit of high dimension N>>1 the…
We consider the spherical Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model of spin glass with sparse interaction, where the interactions between most of the pairs of the spin variables are possibly zero. With suitable normalization, we prove that the limiting…
G.Parisi predicted an important variational formula for the thermodynamic limit of the intensive free energy for a class of mean field spin glasses. In this paper, we present an elementary approach to the study of the Parisi functional…
It has recently been shown in [arXiv:2310.06745] that, upon constraining the system to stay in a balanced state, the Parisi formula for the mean-field Potts model can be written as an optimization problem over permutation-invariant…
We introduce a nonlinear, nonhierarchical generalization of Derrida's GREM and establish through a Sanov-type large deviation analysis both a Boltzmann-Gibbs principle as well as a Parisi formula for the limiting free energy. In line with…
We consider the thermal equilibrium distribution at inverse temperature $\beta$, or canonical ensemble, of the wave function $\Psi$ of a quantum system. Since $L^2$ spaces contain more nondifferentiable than differentiable functions, and…
We show that the Parisi formula of the mixed $p$-spin model is a concave function of the squared inverse temperature. This allows us to derive a new expression for the Parisi formula that involves the inverse temperature and the Parisi…
We compute the free energy at all temperatures for the spherical pure $p$-spin models from the generalized Thouless-Anderson-Palmer representation. This is the first example of a mixed $p$-spin model for which the free energy is computed in…
We prove a duality principle that connects the thermodynamic limits of the free energies of the Hamiltonians and their squared interactions. Under the main assumption that the limiting free energy is concave in the squared temperature…
