We study Langevin dynamics with a kinetic energy different from the standard, quadratic one in order to accelerate the sampling of Boltzmann-Gibbs distributions. In particular, this kinetic energy can be non-globally Lipschitz, which raises…

We develop a simple method to study the high temperature, or high external field, behavior of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field spin glass model. The basic idea is to couple two different replicas with a quadratic term, trying to push…

The relaxational modes and aging of the Glauber dynamics of the mean-field spin-glass model, SK model, are studied by a numerical diagonalization technique and Monte Carlo simulations. We found that the aging process of the model is…
The free energy landscape of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrik (SK) Ising spin glass is simple in the framework of the Thouless-Anderson-Palmer (TAP) equations as each solution (which are minima of the free energy) has associated with it a nearby…
We investigate an \(n\)-vector model over \(k\) sites with generic pairwise interactions and spherical constraints. The model is a lifting of the Ising model whereby the support of the spin is lifted to a hypersphere. We show that the…
We study the landscapes of multi-species spherical spin glasses. Our results determine the phase boundary for annealed trivialization of the number of critical points, and establish its equivalence with a quenched strong topological…
We consider a multi-layer Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin-glass as a model for deep restricted Boltzmann machines and we solve for its quenched free energy, in the thermodynamic limit and allowing for a first step of replica symmetry breaking.…
We examine the behavior of the 2-spin spherical Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model with an external field by analyzing the overlap of a spin with the external field. Previous research has noted that, at low temperature, this overlap exhibits…
We investigate both free energy and complexity of the spherical bipartite spin glass model. We first prove a variational formula in high temperature for the limiting free energy based on the well-known Crisanti-Sommers representation of the…
