A theoretical description of the low-temperature phase of short-range spin glasses has remained elusive for decades. In particular, it is unclear if theories that assert a single pair of pure states, or theories that are based infinitely…
We analyze the low-temperature behavior of mean-field equations of Thouless, Anderson, and Palmer (TAP). We demonstrate that degeneracy in free energy makes the low-temperature TAP states unstable. Different solutions of the TAP equations,…
