The replica-symmetric free energy for Ising spin glasses with orthogonally invariant couplings
share
We study the mean-field Ising spin glass model with external field, where the random symmetric couplings matrix is orthogonally invariant in law. For sufficiently high temperature, we prove that the replica-symmetric prediction is correct for the first-order limit of the free energy. Our analysis is an adaption of a "conditional quenched equals annealed" argument used by Bolthausen to analyze the high-temperature regime of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. We condition on a sigma-field that is generated by the iterates of an Approximate Message Passing algorithm for solving the TAP equations in this model, whose rigorous state evolution was recently established.
