We prove the free energy and ground state energy of spherical spin glasses are universal under the minimal moment assumptions. Previously such universality was known only for Ising spin glasses and random symmetric matrices, the latter…
We introduce a hierarchical class of approximations of the random Ising spin glass in $d$ dimensions. The attention is focused on finite clusters of spins where the action of the rest of the system is properly taken into account. At the…
We review the main methods used to study spin glasses. In the first part, we focus on methods for fully connected models and systems defined on a tree, such as the replica method, the Thouless-Anderson-Palmer formalism, the cavity method,…
In this work we study numerically a short range p-spin glass model in three dimensions. The behaviour of the model appears to be remarkably different from mean field predictions. In fact it shares some features typical of models with full…
We present a simple strategy in order to show the existence and uniqueness of the infinite volume limit of thermodynamic quantities, for a large class of mean field disordered models, as for example the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, and…
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…
In the present paper we analyze the critical properties of a quantum spherical spin glass model with short range, random interactions. Since the model allows for rigorous detailed calculations, we can show how the effective partition…
In this paper, we study the high temperature or low connectivity phase of the Viana-Bray model. This is a diluted version of the well known Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field spin glass. In the whole replica symmetric region, we obtain a…
In this note, we point out that infinite-volume Gibbs measures of spin glass models on the hypercube can be identified as random probability measures on the unit ball of a Hilbert space. This simple observation follows from a result of…
Sample-to-sample free energy fluctuations in spin-glasses display a markedly different behaviour in finite-dimensional and fully-connected models, namely Gaussian vs. non-Gaussian. Spin-glass models defined on various types of random graphs…
The self-consistent Gaussian approximation (SCGA) for classical spin systems described by a completely anisotropic D-component vector model is proposed, which takes into account fluctuations of the molecular field and thus is a next step…
In recent times, the theoretical study of the three-dimensional Edwards-Anderson model has produced several rigorous results on the nature of the spin-glass phase. In particular, it has been shown that, as soon as the overlap distribution…
Disordered systems such as spin glasses have been used extensively as models for high-dimensional random landscapes and studied from the perspective of optimization algorithms. In a recent paper by L. Addario-Berry and the second author,…
The limit free energy of spin-glass models with convex interactions can be represented as a variational problem involving an explicit functional. Models with non-convex interactions are much less well-understood, and simple variational…
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…
From the study of a functional equation of Gibbs measures we calculate the limiting free energy of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass model at a particular value of (low) temperature. This implies the following lower bound for the…
We investigate static and dynamic properties of gray-scale image restoration (GSIR) by making use of the Q-Ising spin glass model, whose ladder symmetry allows to take in account the distance between two spins. We thus give an explicit…
Models of spin glasses are studied with a phase transition discontinuous in the Parisi order parameter. It is assumed that the leading order corrections to the thermodynamic limit of the high temperature free energy are due to the existence…
We present results of a Monte Carlo study of the equilibrium dynamics of the one dimensional long-range Ising spin glass model. By tuning a parameter $\sigma$, this model interpolates between the mean field Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model and…
We study the free energy of a particle in (arbitrary) high-dimensional Gaussian random potentials with isotropic increments. We prove a computable saddle-point variational representation in terms of a Parisi-type functional for the free…
