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 consider the spherical mixed $p$-spin models and investigate the structure of the Parisi measure at zero temperature. We prove that for the spherical spin models with $n$ components, the Parisi measure at zero temperature is at most…
We prove that the Parisi measure of the mixed p-spin model at zero temperature has infinitely many points in its support. This establishes Parisi's prediction that the functional order parameter of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model is not a…
We provide rigorous proofs which show that the main features of the Parisi solution of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass are not valid for more realistic spin glass models in any dimension and at any temperature.
We investigate the energy landscape of the spherical mixed even p-spin model near its maximum energy. We relate the distance between pairs of near maxima to the support of the Parisi measure at zero temperature. We then provide an algebraic…
We establish three equivalent versions of a Parisi formula for the free energy of mean-field spin glasses in a transversal magnetic field. These results are derived from available results for classical vector spin glasses by an…
In this paper we prove that the support of a random measure on the unit ball of a separable Hilbert space that satisfies the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities must be ultrametric with probability one. This implies the Parisi ultrametricity…
We provide the first examples of two-step replica symmetry breaking (2-RSB) models for the spherical mixed p-spin glass at zero temperature. Precisely, we show that for a certain class of mixtures, the Parisi measure at zero temperature is…
We prove the existence of correlations between the equilibrium states at different temperatures of the multi-$p$-spin spherical spin-glass models with continuous replica symmetry breaking: there is no chaos in temperature in these models.…
The validity of the Parisi formula in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model (SK) was initially proved by Talagrand [18]. The central argument therein relied on a very dedicated study of the coupled free energy via the two-dimensional…
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…
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…
In the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field model for spin glasses, we show that the quenched average of the free energy can be expressed through a couple of functional order parameters, in a form very similar to the one found in the frame of…
In this paper a multi-scale version of the Sherrington and Kirkpatrick model is introduced and studied. The pressure per particle in the thermodynamical limit is proved to obey a variational principle of Parisi type. The result is achieved…
The Potts spin glass is a generalization of the Sherrington--Kirkpatrick (SK) model that allows for spins to take more than two values. Based on a novel synchronization mechanism, Panchenko (2018) showed that the limiting free energy is…
The Parisi formula for the free energy in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick and mixed $p$-spin models for even $p\geq2$ was proved in the seminal work of Michel Talagrand [Ann. of Math. (2) 163 (2006) 221-263]. In this paper we prove the Parisi…
We study numerically a disordered model that interpolates among the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field model and the three dimensional Edwards-Anderson spin glass. We find that averages over the disorder of powers of the overlap and of the…
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…
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 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…
