Parisi's formula is a self-contained description of the infinite-volume limit of the free energy of mean-field spin glass models. We show that this quantity can be recast as the solution of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the Wasserstein…

We analyze the low-temperature behavior of mean-field equations of Thouless, Anderson, and Palmer (TAP). We demonstrate that degeneracy in free energy makes the low-temperature TAP states unstable. Different solutions of the TAP equations,…

Metastable states in Ising spin-glass models are studied by finding iterative solutions of mean-field equations for the local magnetizations. Two different equations are studied: the TAP equations which are exact for the SK model, and the…
