We have studied the diluted Heisenberg spin glass model in a 3-component random field for the commonly-used one-dimensional long-range model where the probability that two spins separated by a distance $r$ interact with one another falls as…
By using real space renormalisation group (RG) methods we show that spin-glasses in a field display a new kind of transition in high dimensions. The corresponding critical properties and the spin-glass phase are governed by two…

Replica symmetry breaking (RSB) underlies the complex organization of disordered systems, yet quantitative validation beyond $N \sim 100$ spins has remained computationally challenging. We use quantum annealing to access ground states of…
In this thesis, we review and examine the replica method from several viewpoints. The replica method is a mathematical technique to calculate general moments of stochastic variables. This method provides a systematic way to evaluate…

The Sherrington--Kirkpatrick model of spin glasses, the Hopfield model of neural networks and the Ising spin glass are all models of binary data belonging to the one-parameter exponential family with quadratic sufficient statistic. Under…
We investigate the classical Renyi entropy S_n and the associated mutual information I_n in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (S-K) model, which is the paradigm model of mean-field spin glasses. Using classical Monte Carlo simulations and…
According to the droplet picture of spin glasses, the low-temperature phase of spin glasses should be replica symmetric. However, analysis of the stability of this state suggested that it was unstable and this instability lends support to…
The richness of the mean-field solution of simple glasses leaves many of its features challenging to interpret. A minimal model that illuminates glass physics the same way the random energy model clarifies spin glass behavior would…
connected spin-glass models with a discontinuous transition. In the thermodynamic limit the equilibrium properties in the high temperature phase are described by the schematic Mode Coupling Theory of super-cooled liquids. We show that {\it…
We consider an invariant random matrix model where the standard Gaussian potential is distorted by an additional single pole of order $m$. We compute the average or macroscopic spectral density in the limit of large matrix size, solving the…
The Parisi solution of the mean-field spin glass has been widely accepted and celebrated. Its marginal stability in 3d and its complexity however raised the question of its relevance to real spin glasses. This paper gives a short overview…
We consider a Lattice Gas model in which the sites interact via infinite-ranged random couplings independently distributed with a Gaussian probability density. This is the Lattice Gas analogue of the well known Sherrington-Kirkpatrick Ising…
We present a numerical study of ground states of the dilute versions of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) mean-field spin glass. In contrast to so-called "sparse" mean-field spin glasses that have been studied widely on random networks of…
We discuss the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean-field version of a spin glass within the distributional zeta-function method (DZFM). In the DZFM, since the dominant contribution to the average free energy is written as a series of moments of…
We consider a finite range spin glass model in arbitrary dimension, where the strength of the two-body coupling decays to zero over some distance $\gamma^{-1}$. We show that, under mild assumptions on the interaction potential, the…
Numerical studies in random systems are plagued with strong finite-size effects and boundary effects. We introduce a window-measurement method as a practical solution to these difficulties. We observe physical quantities only within a…
Disordered systems generically exhibit aging and a glass transition. Previous studies have long suggested that non-reciprocity tends to destroy glassiness. Here, we show that this is not always the case using a bipartite spherical…
The mean field spin glass model is analyzed by a combination of mathematically rigororous methods and a powerful Ansatz. The method exploited is general, and can be applied to others disordered mean field models such as, e.g., neural…
