Based on simple combinatorial arguments, we formulate a generalized cavity method where the Random Overlap Structure (ROSt) probability space of Aizenmann, Sims and Starr is obtained in a constructive way, and use it to give a simplified…
The random energy model (REM) is the simplest spin glass model which exhibits replica symmetry breaking. It is well known since the 80's that its overlaps are non-selfaveraging and that their statistics satisfy the predictions of the…
We establish both a Boltzmann-Gibbs principle and a Parisi formula for the limiting free energy of an abstract GREM (Generalized Random Energy Model) which provides an approximation of the TAP (Thouless-Anderson-Palmer) free energies…
We investigate overlap fluctuations of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field spin glass model in the framework of the Random Over- lap Structure (ROSt). The concept of ROSt has been introduced recently by Aizenman and coworkers, who…
We construct a N-dimensional Gaussian landscape with multiscale, translation invariant, logarithmic correlations and investigate the statistical mechanics of a single particle in this environment. In the limit of high dimension N>>1 the…
In this paper we study the bipartite version of Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. We prove that the free energy density is given by an analogue of the Parisi formula, that contains both the usual overlap and an additional new type of overlap.…
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 discuss a spin glass reminiscent of the Random Energy Model, which allows in particular to recast the Parisi minimization into a more classical Gibbs variational principle, thereby shedding some light on the physical meaning of the order…
We obtain an exact analytic expression for the average distribution, in the thermodynamic limit, of overlaps between two copies of the same random energy model (REM) at different temperatures. We quantify the non-self averaging effects and…
The Random Orthogonal Model (ROM) of Marinari-Parisi-Ritort [MPR1,MPR2] is a model of statistical mechanics where the couplings among the spins are defined by a matrix chosen randomly within the orthogonal ensemble. It reproduces the most…
We introduce a nonlinear, nonhierarchical generalization of Derrida's GREM and establish through a Sanov-type large deviation analysis both a Boltzmann-Gibbs principle as well as a Parisi formula for the limiting free energy. In line with…
The Parisi formula for the free energy is among the crown jewels in the theory of spin glasses. We present a simpler proof of the lower bound in the case of the spherical mean-field model. Our method follows the TAP approach developed…
In this thesis, we consider several Random Energy Models. This includes Derrida's Random Energy Model (REM) and Generalized Random Energy Model (GREM) and a nonhierarchical version (BK-GREM) by Bolthausen and Kistler. The limiting free…
The complete phase diagram of Random Energy Model (REM) is obtained for complex temperatures using the method proposed by Derrida. We find the density of zeroes for statistical sum. Then the method is applied to Generalized Random Energy…
The Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass model has been studied as a source of insight into the statistical mechanics of systems with highly diversified collections of competing low energy states. The goal of this summary is to present some…
It was proved by Michel Talagrand in [10] that the Parisi formula for the free energy in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model is differentiable with respect to inverse temperature parameter. We present a simpler proof of this result by using…
We propose a random matrix model that interpolates between the chiral random matrix ensembles and the chiral Poisson ensemble. By mapping this model on a non-interacting Fermi-gas we show that for energy differences less than a critical…
The goal of this paper is to review some of the main ideas that emerged from the attempts to confirm mathematically the predictions of the celebrated Parisi ansatz in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. We try to focus on the big picture…
We solve the random energy model when the energies of the configurations take only integer values. In the thermodynamic limit, the average overlaps remain size dependent and oscillate as the system size increases. While the extensive part…
We continue our presentation of mathematically rigorous results about the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field spin glass model. Here we establish some properties of the distribution of overlaps between real replicas. They are in full…
