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…
The Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin-glass model used the replica symmetry method to find the phase transition of the system. In 1979-1980, Parisi proposed a solution based on replica symmetry breaking (RSB), which allowed him to identify the…
