We consider the free energy of a class of spin glass models with $ p$-spin interactions in a transverse magnetic field. As $ p \to \infty $, the infinite system-size free energy is proven to converge to that of the quantum random energy…
We analyse the critical region of finite-($d$)-dimensional Ising spin glass, in particular the limit of $d$ closely above the lower critical dimension $d_\ell$. At criticality the thermally active degrees of freedom are surfaces (of width…

Spin glasses are magnetic systems exhibiting both quenched disorder and frustration, and have often been cited as examples of `complex systems.' In this talk I review some of the basic notions of spin glass physics, and discuss how some of…
