The free-energy landscape of the SK model
We have seen an example of mean-field model, the spherical p-spin, in which the low-T phase is glassy, described by a 1-RSB ansatz of the overlap matrix. The thermodynamics in the glassy phase is described by three quantities: the typical overlap between configurations belonging to the same pure state, the typical overlap Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle q_0^{SP} } between configurations belonging to different pure states, and the probability Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle (1-m^{SP}) } that two configurations extracted at equilibrium belong to the same state. It can be shown that the low-T, frozen phase of the REM is also described by this 1-RSB ansatz with and . Replicas are a way to explore the structure of the free-energy landscape.
The Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model introduced in Lecture 1 also has a low-T phase that is glassy. However, the structure of the free-energy landscape is more complicated the mutual overlaps between equilibrium states are organized in a complicated pattern. To understand it, let us consider a 2-RSB ansatz for the overlap matrix:
