We consider vector spin glasses whose energy function is a Gaussian random field with covariance given in terms of the matrix of scalar products. For essentially any model in this class, we give an upper bound for the limit free energy,…

We study the Potts spin glass model, which generalizes the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model to the case when spins take more than two values but their interactions are counted only if the spins are equal. We obtain the analogue of the Parisi…
We introduce a hierarchical class of approximations of the random Ising spin glass in $d$ dimensions. The attention is focused on finite clusters of spins where the action of the rest of the system is properly taken into account. At the…

We prove upper and lower bounds on the free energy in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model with multidimensional (e.g., Heisenberg) spins in terms of the variational inequalities based on the corresponding Parisi functional. We employ the…
This thesis focus on the extension of the Parisi full replica symmetry breaking solution to the Ising spin glass on a random regular graph. We propose a new martingale approach, that overcomes the limits of the Parisi-M\'ezard cavity…
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…
The sample-to-sample fluctuations of the free energy in finite-dimensional Ising spin glasses are calculated, using the replica method, from higher order terms in the replica number $n$. It is shown that the Parisi symmetry breaking scheme…
These notes give an introduction to the physics of the infinite range version of the Edwards--Anderson model, the so-called Sherrington--Kirkpatrick model. In a first part, I motivate and introduce the Edwards--Anderson and…
We analyze the free energy and the overlaps in the 2-spin spherical Sherrington Kirkpatrick spin glass model with an external field for the purpose of understanding the transition between this model and the one without an external field. We…
Spin glass models involving multiple replicas with constrained overlaps have been studied in [FPV92; PT07; Pan18a]. For the spherical versions of these models [Ko19; Ko20] showed that the limiting free energy is given by a Parisi type…
We study the energy landscape of a model of a single particle on a random potential, that is, we investigate the topology of level sets of smooth random fields on $\mathbb R^{N}$ of the form $X_N(x) +\frac\mu2 \|x\|^2,$ where $X_{N}$ is a…
The free energy of any system can be written as the supremum of a functional involving an energy term and an entropy term. Surprisingly, the limit free energy of mean-field spin glasses is expressed as an infimum instead, a phenomenon…
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…
