In this note, we point out that infinite-volume Gibbs measures of spin glass models on the hypercube can be identified as random probability measures on the unit ball of a Hilbert space. This simple observation follows from a result of…
In this paper we obtain a new family of identities for random measures on the unit ball of a separable Hilbert space which arise as the asymptotic analogues of the Gibbs measures in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick and $p$-spin models and which…
The Ghirlanda-Guerra identities are one of the most mysterious features of spin glasses. We prove the GG identities in a large class of models that includes the Edwards-Anderson model, the random field Ising model, and the…
In this paper we give another proof of the fact that a random overlap array, which satisfies the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities and whose elements take values in a finite set, is ultrametric with probability one. The new proof bypasses random…
We investigate the structure of Parisi measures, the functional order parameters of mixed p-spin models in mean field spin glasses. In the absence of external field, we prove that a Parisi measure satisfies the following properties. First,…
In this paper, we introduce a notion called "Approximate Ultrametricity" which encapsulates the phenomenology of a sequence of random probability measures having supports that behave like ultrametric spaces insofar as they decompose into…
We show that, under the conditions known to imply the validity of the Parisi formula, if the generic Sherrington-Kirkpatrick Hamiltonian contains a $p$-spin term then the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities for the $p$th power of the overlap hold…
Random Overlap Structures (ROSt's) are random elements on the space of probability measures on the unit ball of a Hilbert space, where two measures are identified if they differ by an isometry. In spin glasses, they arise as natural limits…
We show that if a discrete random measure on the unit ball of a separable Hilbert space satisfies the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities then by randomly deleting half of the points and renormalizing the weights of the remaining points we obtain…
Gibbs' measures in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick type models satisfy two asymptotic stability properties, the Aizenman-Contucci stochastic stability and the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities, which play a fundamental role in our current…
We consider a symmetric positive definite weakly exchangeable infinite random matrix and show that, under the technical condition that its elements take a finite number of values, the Ghirlanda--Guerra identities imply ultrametricity.
We prove universality of the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities and spin distributions in the mixed $p$-spin models. The assumption for the universality of the identities requires exactly that the coupling constants have zero means and finite…
Spin glass models with quadratic-type Hamiltonians are disordered statistical physics systems with competing ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic spin interactions. The corresponding Gibbs measures belong to the exponential family…
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…
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…
In this paper, we show that the replica symmetry of the Gibbs measure of spherical spin systems is a property of the eigenvalue spacing at the edge of the interaction matrix. In particular, our interaction matrix has \textbf{two} large…
In many spin glass models, due to the symmetry among sites, any limiting joint distribution of spins under the annealed Gibbs measure admits the Aldous-Hoover representation encoded by a function $\sigma:[0,1]^4\to\{-1,+1\}$, and one can…
We prove that the two cornerstones of mean-field spin glass theory -- the Parisi variational formula and the ultrametric organization of pure states -- break down under heavy-tailed disorder. For the mixed spherical $p$-spin model whose…
We discuss a spin glass reminiscent of the Random Energy Model, which allows in particular to recast the Parisi minimization into a more classical Gibbs variational principle, thereby shedding some light on the physical meaning of the order…
We sketch a new framework for the analysis of disordered systems, in particular mean field spin glasses, which is variational in nature and within the formalism of classical thermodynamics. For concreteness, only the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick…
