In this paper we consider central limit theorems for various macroscopic observables in the high temperature region of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass model. With a particular focus on obtaining a quenched central limit theorem for…
We study the problem of testing and recovering $k$-clique Ferromagnetic mean shift in the planted Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model (i.e., a type of spin glass model) with $n$ spins. The planted SK model -- a stylized mixture of an uncountable…
We calculate the probability distribution of the overlap between a spin glass and a copy of itself in which the bonds are randomly perturbed in varying degrees. The overlap distribution is shown to go to a delta distribution in the…
A mean field spherical model with random couplings between pairs, quartets, and possibly higher multiplets of spins is considered. It has the same critical behavior as the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. It thus exhibits replica symmetry…

A generalization of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model for spin glasses is considered, in which the interaction matrix is endowed with a variance profile that has no particular structure an may be sparse. In the first part of this…
In this paper we calculate the mean number of metastable states for spin glasses on so called random thin graphs with couplings taken from a symmetric binary distribution $\pm J$. Thin graphs are graphs where the local connectivity of each…

Using the discrete $\pm J$ bond distribution for the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass, all ground states for the entire ensemble of the bond disorder are enumerated. Although the combinatorial complexity of the enumeration severely…
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…
Mean-field models of glasses that present a random first order transition exhibit highly non-trivial fluctuations. Building on previous studies that focused on the critical scaling regime, we here obtain a fully quantitative framework for…
The theory of glassy fluctuations can be formulated in terms of disordered effective potentials. While the properties of the average potentials are well understood, the study of the fluctuations has been so far quite limited. Close to the…
We give the explicit expression of the infinite volume limit for the random overlap structures appearing in the mean field spin glass model. These structures have the expected factorization property for the cavity fields, and enjoy…
A random matrix approach to glassy physics is introduced. It leads to a class of models which exhibit both, glassy low-temperature phases, and double-- and single-well configurations in their potential energy. The distribution of parameters…
We discuss the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean-field version of a spin glass within the distributional zeta-function method (DZFM). In the DZFM, since the dominant contribution to the average free energy is written as a series of moments of…
We present an ansatz for the ground states of the Quantum Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, a paradigmatic model for quantum spin glasses. Our ansatz, based on the concept of generalized coherent states, very well captures the fundamental…
