Edwards Anderson model

We consider for simplicity the Ising version of this model.

Ising spins takes two values 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 \sigma=\pm 1} and live on a lattice of 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 N } sitees 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 i=1,2,\ldots,N } . The enregy is writteen as a sum between the nearest neighbours <i,j>:

Edwards and Anderson proposed to study this model for couplings 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 J } that are i.i.d. random variables with zero mean. We set 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 \pi(J)} the coupling distribution indicate the avergage over the couplings called disorder average, with an overline:

It is crucial to assume ${\bar {J}}=0$ , otherwise the model displays ferro/antiferro order. We sill discuss two distributions:

Gaussian couplings: 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 \pi(J) =\exp\left(-J^2/2\right)/\sqrt{2 \pi}}
Coin toss couplings, 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 J= \pm 1 } , selected with probability $1/2$ .

Edwards Anderson order parameter

The SK model

Sherrington and Kirkpatrik considered the fully connected version of the model with Gaussian couplings:

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 E= - \sum_{i,j} \frac{J_{ij}}{2 \sqrt{N}} \sigma_i \sigma_j }

At the inverse temperature 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 \beta } , the partion function of the model is

Z=\sum _{\alpha =1}^{2^{N}}z_{\alpha },\quad {\text{with}}\;z_{\alpha }=e^{-\beta E_{\alpha }}

Here 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 E_\alpha } is the energy associated to the configuration 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 \alpha } . This model presents a thermodynamic transition at $\beta _{c}=??$ .

Random energy model

The solution of the SK is difficult. To make progress we first study the radnom energy model (REM) introduced by B. Derrida.

Derivation of the model

The REM neglects the correlations between the 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 2^N } configurations and assumes the 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 E_{\alpha} } as iid variables.

Show that the energy distribution is

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 p(E_\alpha) =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2 \pi \sigma^2}}e^{-\frac{E_{\alpha}^2}{2 \sigma^2}}}

and determine 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 \sigma^2}

The Solution: Part 1

We provide different solutions of the Random Energy Model (REM). The first one focus on the statistics of the smallest energies among the ones associated to the 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 M=2^N} configurations.

Consider the $M=2^{N}$ energies: 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 (x_1,...,x_M)} . They are i.i.d. variables, drawn from the Gaussian distribution 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 p(x)} . It is useful to use the following notations:

$P^{<}(x)=\int _{-\infty }^{x}dx'p(x')\sim {\frac {\sigma }{{\sqrt {2\pi }}|x|}}e^{-{\frac {x^{2}}{2\sigma ^{2}}}}\;$ for 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 x \to -\infty} . It represents the probability to draw a number smaller than x
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 P^>(x)=\int_x^{+\infty} dx' p(x') = 1- P^<(x) } . It represents the probability to draw a number larger than x.

Extreme value stattics for Gaussian variables

We denote

y_{M}=\min(x_{1},...,x_{M})

Our goal is to compute the cumulative distribution 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_M(y)\equiv\text{Prob}(y_M< y)} for large M and iid variables.

We need to understand two key relations:

the first relation is exact:

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_M(y) = \left(P^<(y)\right)^M }

the second relation identifies the typical value of the minimum, namely $a_{M}$ :

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 P^>(a_M) = \frac1 M }

. Hence in the Gaussian case we get:

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 a_M =2 \sigma \sqrt{\log M}-\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{\log(\log M)} +O(1) }

Close to $a_{M}$ , 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 P^>(y) \sim 1/M } . Hence, from the limit 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 \lim_{M\to \infty} (1-\frac{k}{M})^M =\exp(-k)} we re-write the first relation:

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_M(y) \sim \exp\left(-M P^>(y)\right) We want now to give a natural definition for the number <math>a_N} and 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 b_N} .

Consider 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 P^>(\tilde y)=\frac 12} . If you draw N independent exponential variables, how many variables (in average) will be greater than ${\tilde {y}}$ ? Repeat the same exercise with 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 \tilde \tilde y} such that 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 P^>( \tilde \tilde y)=\frac 23}

In the large N limit, the distribution $\pi (z)$ becomes 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 N} independent.

Show that in this limit its cumulative takes the from

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 \Pi(z)= e^{-e^{-z}}}

\Pi (z)=e^{-e^{-z}}

This is the cumulative distribution of the famous Gumbel distribution.

Let us remark that the precise definition of 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 a_N} and 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 b_N} fix the mean and the variance of the rescaled distribution $\pi (z)$ At variance with the central limit case the mean will be different from zero and the variance different from one.

Compute the mean, the variance and the asymptotic behavior of the Gumbel distribution. Draw the distribution. Explain why 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 z=0} is a special point

Generic case: Universality of the Gumbel distribution

The Gumbel distribution is the limit distribution of the maxima of a large class of function. We can say that the Gumbel distribution plays, for extreme statistics, the same role of the Gaussian distribution for the central limit theorem.

By contrast the behavior of 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 a_N} and 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 b_N} as a function of 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 N} strongly depend on the particular distributions 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 p(x)} . We discuss here a family of distribution characterized by a fast decay for large 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 x}

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 p(x) \sim c e^{- x^\alpha}}

where 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 \alpha>0} The key point is to be able to determine $A(x)$ such that

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 P^>(x)=\exp(-A(x))}

For 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 p(x) = e^{- x}} shows 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 A(x)=x}

Otherwise 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 A(x)} should be determined asymptotically for large 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 x}

Show that 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 A(x)=x^\alpha +(\alpha-1) \log x+...}
Show that in general 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 A(a_N)= \log N+...} and compute 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 a_N} as a function of 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 \alpha } for large 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 N } .
Show that the maximum distribution take the form

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 \lim _{N\to \infty } Q_N(y)=\left( y= a_N+ \frac{z}{A'(a_N)} \right)}
