Numerical simulations and exactly soluble spin-glass models.

1985

Some general arguments based on recent numerical work are presented to explain the different behavior of short-range, random-bond and long-range, random-site spin glasses. We then analyze an exactly soluble spin-glass model, which may be solved without replicas, and show that, except for the absence of microscopic metastable states, its main features are consistent with the long-range picture.

Quenched and annealed free energies

1984

This paper gives a simple exposition of the Nishimori method to solve certain quenched, random bond spin-glass models. It allows a transparent physical interpretation in terms of annealed systems. As an application a special solution of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model with a discrete probability distribution is obtained and shown to agree with the solution for the Gaussian case. This substantiates the claim that the averaged free energy does not depend on the details of the probability distribution Expose simple de la methode de Nishimori pour resoudre certains modeles de verres de spin avec interactions aleatoires.
