In this thesis, we consider several Random Energy Models. This includes Derrida's Random Energy Model (REM) and Generalized Random Energy Model (GREM) and a nonhierarchical version (BK-GREM) by Bolthausen and Kistler. The limiting free…
The complete phase diagram of Random Energy Model (REM) is obtained for complex temperatures using the method proposed by Derrida. We find the density of zeroes for statistical sum. Then the method is applied to Generalized Random Energy…
In an earlier work, the statistical physics associated with finite--temperature decoding of code ensembles, along with the relation to their random coding error exponents, were explored in a framework that is analogous to Derrida's random…
We introduce a natural nonhierarchical version of Derrida's generalized random energy model. We prove that, in the thermodynamical limit, the free energy is the same as that of a suitably constructed GREM.
We introduce a layered random spin model, equivalent to the Generalized Random Energy Model (GREM). In analogy with diluted spin systems, a diluted GREM (DGREM) is introduced.It can be applied to calculate approximately thermodynamic…

Motivated by the Lee--Yang approach to phase transitions, we study the partition function of the Generalized Random Energy Model (GREM) at complex inverse temperature $\beta$. We compute the limiting log-partition function and describe the…
In this paper, we consider limit laws for the model, which is a generalisation of the random energy model (REM) to the case when the energy levels have the mixture distribution. More precisely, the distribution of the energy levels is…
We study Derrida's generalized random energy model in the presence of uniform external field. We compute the fluctuations of the ground state and of the partition function in the thermodynamic limit for all admissible values of parameters.…
We determine explicit variational expressions for the free energy of mean-field spin glasses in a transversal magnetic field, whose glass interaction is given by a hierarchical Gaussian potential as in Derrida's Generalized Random Energy…
We solve the random energy model when the energies of the configurations take only integer values. In the thermodynamic limit, the average overlaps remain size dependent and oscillate as the system size increases. While the extensive part…
Recently, Bauke and Mertens conjectured that the local statistics of energies in random spin systems with discrete spin space should in most circumstances be the same as in the random energy model. This was proven in a large class of models…
We study model evaluation and model selection from the perspective of generalization ability (GA): the ability of a model to predict outcomes in new samples from the same population. We believe that GA is one way formally to address…
We prove an algorithmic hardness result for finding low-energy states in the so-called \emph{continuous random energy model (CREM)}, introduced by Bovier and Kurkova in 2004 as an extension of Derrida's \emph{generalized random energy…
In this note we formulate a finite dimensional generalization of the Random Energy Model (REM) where we introduce a geometry and spatial correlations between energies. We study the model in dimension one by transfer matrix techniques and we…
Using the proof of Willmore's conjecture by Marques and Neves, we conjecture that the free energy of tensionless fluid membranes of arbitrary genus has an upper bound. This implies that the average genus of such a membrane, in equilibrium,…
We establish both a Boltzmann-Gibbs principle and a Parisi formula for the limiting free energy of an abstract GREM (Generalized Random Energy Model) which provides an approximation of the TAP (Thouless-Anderson-Palmer) free energies…
In this paper the Random Energy Model(REM) under exponential type environment is considered which includes double exponential and Gaussian cases. Limiting Free Energy is evaluated in these models. Limiting Gibbs' distribution is evaluated…
The Gaussian expansion method (GEM) is extensively applied to the calculations in the random-phase approximation (RPA). We adopt the mass-independent basis-set that has been tested in the mean-field calculations. By comparing the RPA…
