Mean Field Spin Glasses. From Parisi to Boltzmann (?)
The Parisi theory makes astounding predictions about the large volume behavior of mean field disordered systems, such as the paradigmatic SK-model. Some of these predictions have been meanwhile rigorously confirmed, yet many most of the deep conceptual puzzles raised by the Parisi theory remain to these days unanswered, in fact: un-addressed. Even a non-rigorous (!) yet hands-on, microcanonical treatment of spin glasses within the Boltzmann-Gibbs framework is to date lacking.
/I will discuss these issues, //and //suggest through a case-study that //the /
/proper framework to address them rigorously is provided by the /
/treatment //pioneered by////Thouless-Anderson-Palmer, //and Plefka./
Joint work with David Belius (Zurich).
