We compute the probability of positive large deviations of the free energy per spin in mean-field Spin-Glass models. The probability vanishes in the thermodynamic limit as $P(\Delta f) \propto \exp[-N^2 L_2(\Delta f)]$. For the…
Physical quantities in the mixed $p$-spin glasses are evaluated with Nishimori's gauge theory and several variance inequalities. The $\mathbb Z_2$-symmetry breaking and the replica-symmetry breaking are studied in finite and infinite…
We show that the algebra of Parisi ultrametric matrices is recovered by the real-time, replica-free, Dyson-Keldysh equations of infinite-range quantum spin glasses in the late time glassy limit. This connects to earlier results on classical…

We study in Ising spin glasses the finite-size effects near the spin-glass transition in zero field and at the de Almeida-Thouless transition in a field by Monte Carlo methods and by analytical approximations. In zero field, the finite-size…
We study the competition between ferromagnetic and spin glass phases using a system of coupled infinite-range Ising and Sherrington-Kirkpatrick models. We obtain the replica-symmetric solution for the free energy of this system in terms of…
In many spin glass models, due to the symmetry among sites, any limiting joint distribution of spins under the annealed Gibbs measure admits the Aldous-Hoover representation encoded by a function $\sigma:[0,1]^4\to\{-1,+1\}$, and one can…
