We obtain a general formula for the distribution of sizes of "static avalanches", or shocks, in generic mean-field glasses with replica-symmetry-breaking saddle points. For the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) spin-glass it yields the density…
We discuss a phase transition in spin glass models which have been rarely considered in the past, namely the phase transition that may take place when two real replicas are forced to be at a larger distance (i.e. at a smaller overlap) than…
We prove that the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model of spin glasses is chaotic under small perturbations of the couplings at any temperature in the absence of an external field. The result is proved for two kinds of perturbations: (a)…
In this paper we study the Parisi variational problem for mixed $p$-spin glasses with Ising spins. Our starting point is a characterization of Parisi measures whose origin lies in the first order optimality conditions for the Parisi…
We have studied the Parisi overlap distribution for the three dimensional Ising spin glass in the Migdal-Kadanoff approximation. For temperatures T around 0.7Tc and system sizes upto L=32, we found a P(q) as expected for the full Parisi…
Chirikov's celebrated criterion of resonance overlap has been widely used in celestial mechanics and Hamiltonian dynamics to detect global instability, but is rarely rigourous. We introduce two simple Hamiltonian systems, each depending on…
We introduce a Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin-glass model with the addition of elastic degrees of freedom. The problem is formulated in terms of an effective four-spin Hamiltonian in the pressure ensemble, which can be treated by the replica…

We analyze the free energy and the overlaps in the 2-spin spherical Sherrington Kirkpatrick spin glass model with an external field for the purpose of understanding the transition between this model and the one without an external field. We…
We study numerically a disordered model that interpolates among the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field model and the three dimensional Edwards-Anderson spin glass. We find that averages over the disorder of powers of the overlap and of the…
We define a new family of random spin models with one-dimensional structure, finite-range multi-spin interactions, and bounded average degree (number of interactions in which each spin participates). Unfrustrated ground states can be…
We use heuristic optimization methods in extensive computations to determine with low systematic error ground state configurations of the mean-field $p$-spin glass model with $p=3$. Here, all possible triplets in a system of $N$ Ising spins…
We establish a strict asymptotic inequality between a class of graph partition problems on the sparse End\H{o]s-R\'enyi and random regular graph ensembles with the same average degree. Along the way, we establish a variational…
We study spin glasses with Kac type interaction potential for small but finite inverse interaction range $\gamma$. Using the theoretical setup of coupled replicas, through the replica method we argue that the probability of overlap profiles…
We present a complete characterization of the fluctuations and correlations of the squared overlap in the Edwards-Anderson Spin-Glass model in zero field. The analysis reveals that the energy-energy correlations (and thus the specific heat)…
We present a complete analysis of the glass transition in the self-overlap-corrected Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model in a transverse magnetic field, also referred to as the quantum SK model. In particular, we determine the phase boundary…

The introduction of ``small permutations'' allows us to derive Ward-Takahashi identities for the spin-glass, in the Parisi limit of an infinite number of steps of replica symmetry breaking. The first identities express the emergence of a…
In 1977, Thouless, Anderson, and Palmer (TAP) derived a system of consistent equations in terms of the effective magnetization in order to study the free energy in the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) spin glass model. The solutions to their…
Replica symmetry breaking (RSB) underlies the complex organization of disordered systems, yet quantitative validation beyond $N \sim 100$ spins has remained computationally challenging. We use quantum annealing to access ground states of…
