Random Overlap Structures (ROSt's) are random elements on the space of probability measures on the unit ball of a Hilbert space, where two measures are identified if they differ by an isometry. In spin glasses, they arise as natural limits…
A random overlap structure (ROSt) is a measure on pairs (X,Q) where X is a locally finite sequence in the real line with a maximum and Q a positive semidefinite matrix of overlaps intrinsic to the particles X. Such a measure is said to be…
We investigate overlap fluctuations of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field spin glass model in the framework of the Random Over- lap Structure (ROSt). The concept of ROSt has been introduced recently by Aizenman and coworkers, who…
We discuss the mean-field theory of spin-glass models with frustrated long-range random spin exchange. We analyze the reasons for breakdown of the simple mean-field theory of Sherrington and Kirkpatrick. We relate the replica-symmetry…
Based on simple combinatorial arguments, we formulate a generalized cavity method where the Random Overlap Structure (ROSt) probability space of Aizenmann, Sims and Starr is obtained in a constructive way, and use it to give a simplified…
We study the Potts spin glass model, which generalizes the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model to the case when spins take more than two values but their interactions are counted only if the spins are equal. We obtain the analogue of the Parisi…

We establish three equivalent versions of a Parisi formula for the free energy of mean-field spin glasses in a transversal magnetic field. These results are derived from available results for classical vector spin glasses by an…
We consider an invariant random matrix model where the standard Gaussian potential is distorted by an additional single pole of order $m$. We compute the average or macroscopic spectral density in the limit of large matrix size, solving the…
This thesis focus on the extension of the Parisi full replica symmetry breaking solution to the Ising spin glass on a random regular graph. We propose a new martingale approach, that overcomes the limits of the Parisi-M\'ezard cavity…
Properties of Random Overlap Structures (ROSt)'s constructed from the Edwards-Anderson (EA) Spin Glass model on $\Z^d$ with periodic boundary conditions are studied. ROSt's are $\N\times\N$ random matrices whose entries are the overlaps of…
We discuss a spin glass reminiscent of the Random Energy Model, which allows in particular to recast the Parisi minimization into a more classical Gibbs variational principle, thereby shedding some light on the physical meaning of the order…
We give the explicit expression of the infinite volume limit for the random overlap structures appearing in the mean field spin glass model. These structures have the expected factorization property for the cavity fields, and enjoy…
We continue our presentation of mathematically rigorous results about the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick mean field spin glass model. Here we establish some properties of the distribution of overlaps between real replicas. They are in full…
The Potts spin glass is a generalization of the Sherrington--Kirkpatrick (SK) model that allows for spins to take more than two values. Based on a novel synchronization mechanism, Panchenko (2018) showed that the limiting free energy is…
