We focus on spherical spin glasses whose Parisi distribution has support of the form $[0,q]$. For such models we construct paths from the origin to the sphere which consistently remain close to the ground-state energy on the sphere of…

By using a simple interpolation argument, in previous work we have proven the existence of the thermodynamic limit, for mean field disordered models, including the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, and the Derrida p-spin model. Here we extend…
We prove a Parisi formula for the limiting free energy of multi-species spherical spin glasses with mixed $p$-spin interactions. The upper bound involves a Guerra-style interpolation and requires a convexity assumption on the model's…
In a companion paper we developed the generalized TAP approach for general multi-species spherical mixed $p$-spin models. In this paper, we use it to compute the limit of the free energy at any temperature for all pure multi-species…
We introduce and analyze free energy landscapes defined by associating to any point inside the sphere a free energy calculated on a thin spherical band around it, using many orthogonal replicas. This allows us to reinterpret, rigorously…
The recent proof by F. Guerra that the Parisi ansatz provides a lower bound on the free energy of the SK spin-glass model could have been taken as offering some support to the validity of the purported solution. In this work we present a…
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 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…

It has recently been shown in [arXiv:2310.06745] that, upon constraining the system to stay in a balanced state, the Parisi formula for the mean-field Potts model can be written as an optimization problem over permutation-invariant…
Spin glass models involving multiple replicas with constrained overlaps have been studied in [FPV92; PT07; Pan18a]. For the spherical versions of these models [Ko19; Ko20] showed that the limiting free energy is given by a Parisi type…
We prove that the free energy of any spherical mixed $p$-spin model converges as the dimension $N$ tends to infinity. While the convergence is a consequence of the Parisi formula, the proof we give is independent of the formula and uses the…
Recently, [DOI:10.1007/s10955-023-03135-1] considered spin glass models with additional conventional order parameters characterizing single-replica properties. These parameters are distinct from the standard order parameter, the overlap,…
We present a detailed study of simple `tree' models for off equilibrium dynamics and aging in glassy systems. The simplest tree describes the landscape of a random energy model, whereas multifurcating trees occur in the solution of the…
The free energy of TAP-solutions for the SK-model of mean field spin glasses can be expressed as a nonlinear functional of local terms: we exploit this feature in order to contrive abstract REM-like models which we then solve by a classical…
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.…
We discuss the mean-field theory of spin-glass models with frustrated long-range random spin exchange. We analyze the reasons for breakdown of the simple mean-field theory of Sherrington and Kirkpatrick. We relate the replica-symmetry…
We study the free energy of mean-field multi-species spin glasses with convex covariance function. For such models with $D$ species, the Parisi formula is known to be valid, and expresses the limit free energy as a supremum over monotone…
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…
