This result is obtained by computing $\\Phi(n,T)=T \\bar{Z^n}/ n$, i.e. the average value of the partition function to the power $n$ as a function of $n$. We study in full details the phase diagram of $\\Phi(n,T)$ in the $(n,T)$ plane computing in particular the stability of the replica-symmetric solution. At low temperatures we compute $\\Phi(n,T)$ in series of $n$ and $\\tau=T_c-T$ at high orders using the standard hierarchical ansatz and confirm earlier findings on the $O(n^5)$ scaling. We prove that the $O(n^5)$ scaling is valid at all orders and obtain an exact expression for the coefficient in term of the function $q(x)$. Resumming the series we obtain the large deviations probability at all temperatures. At zero temperature the analytical prediction displays a remarkable quantitative agreement with the numerical data. A similar computation for the simpler spherical model is also performed and the connection between large and small deviations is discussed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2009-04-07T11:27:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "75.50.Lk" ], "keywords": [ "phase diagram", "mean-field spin-glasses", "sherrington-kirkpatrick mean field model", "free-energy", "spin-glass free energy" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2009, "month": "Apr", "volume": 79, "number": 13, "pages": 134205 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009PhRvB..79m4205P" } } }
