We study a spin system with both mixed even-spin Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) couplings and Curie-Weiss (CW) interaction. Our main results are: (i) The thermodynamic limit of the free energy is given by a variational formula involving the…
A mean field spherical model with random couplings between pairs, quartets, and possibly higher multiplets of spins is considered. It has the same critical behavior as the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. It thus exhibits replica symmetry…
In this note, we consider a SK (Sherrington--Kirkpatrick)-type model on Z^d for d greater or equal to 1, weighted by a function allowing to any single spin to interact with a small proportion of the other ones. In the thermodynamical limit,…
