We obtain the analogue of the Crisanti-Sommers variational formula for spherical spin glasses with vector spins. This formula is derived from the discrete Parisi variational formula for the limit of the free energy of constrained copies of…
We argue that the theory of a massive higher spin field coupled to electromagnetism in flat space possesses an intrinsic, model independent, finite upper bound on its UV cutoff. By employing the Stueckelberg formalism we do a systematic…
For the inelastic diffraction, we obtain an upper bound valid in the whole range of the elastic scattering amplitude variation allowed by unitarity. We discuss the energy dependence of the inelastic diffractive cross-section on the base of…
We show that, above the critical temperature, if the dimension D of a given Ising spin glass model is sufficiently high, its free energy can be effectively expressed through the free energy of a related Ising model. When, in a large sense,…
We introduce a novel quantum spin-glass model, a Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model with a transverse mean-field type random magnet. We rigorously derive the exact expression of the free energy of this model at the entire parameter region. The…
For any convex function $F$ of $n$-dimensional Gaussian vector $g$ with $\mathbb{E} e^{\lambda F(g)}<\infty$ for any $\lambda>0$, we show that $\lambda^{-1}\ln \mathbb{E} e^{\lambda F(g)}$ is convex in $\lambda\in\mathbb{R}$. Based on this…
We consider the free energy of the bipartite spherical Sherrington--Kirkpatrick model. We find the critical temperature and prove the limiting free energy for all non-critical temperature. We also show that the law of the fluctuation of the…
We analyze a two-dimensional phase field model designed to describe the dynamics of crystalline grains. The phenomenological free energy is a functional of two order parameters. The first one reflects the orientational order while the…
Properties of the free energy landscape in phase space of a dense hard sphere system characterized by a discretized free energy functional of the Ramakrishnan-Yussouff form are investigated numerically. A considerable number of glassy local…
We consider a general class of two-dimensional spin systems, with continuous but not necessarily smooth, possibly long-range, $O(N)$-symmetric interactions, for which we establish algebraically decaying upper bounds on spin-spin…
In the context of the p-spin spherical model, we introduce a method for the computation of the number of stationary points of any nature (minima, saddles, etc.) of the TAP free energy. In doing this we clarify the ambiguities related to the…
Recently obtained results on linear energy bounds are generalized to arbitrary spin quantum numbers and coupling schemes. Thereby the class of so-called independent magnon states, for which the relative ground-state property can be…
We obtain universal bounds on the energy of codes and for designs in Hamming spaces. Our bounds hold for a large class of potential functions, allow unified treatment, and can be viewed as a generalization of the Levenshtein bounds for…
Energy barriers determine the dynamics in many physical systems like structural glasses, disordered spin systems or proteins. Here we present an approach, which is based on subdividing the configuration space in a hierarchical manner,…
The quenched free energy of spin glasses is estimated by means of annealed averages where the frustration is constrained to its average value. We discuss the case of d-dimensional Ising models with random nearest neighbour coupling, and we…
We study efficient optimization of the Hamiltonians of multi-species spherical spin glasses. Our results characterize the maximum value attained by algorithms that are suitably Lipschitz with respect to the disorder through a variational…

We calculate the finite size scaling of the sample-to-sample fluctuations of the free energy $\Delta F$ of the $m$ component vector spin glass in the large-$m$ limit. This is accomplished using a variant of the interpolating Hamiltonian…
The effective potential of the Higgs scalar field in the Standard Model may have a second degenerate minimum at an ultrahigh vacuum expectation value. This second minimum then determines, by radiative corrections, the values of the…
