We consider the fluctuations of the free energy at arbitrary non-critical temperature for the 2-spin model with no magnetic field. We show that in the high temperature regime the law of the fluctuations converges to the Gaussian distribution just like in the Sherrington-Kirtkpatrick model. We show, on the other hand, that the law of the fluctuations is given by the GOE Tracy-Widom distribution in the low temperature regime. The orders of the fluctuations are markedly different in these two regimes. A universality of the limit law is also proved.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-05-27T14:40:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spherical sherrington-kirkpatrick model", "free energy", "fluctuations", "goe tracy-widom distribution", "high temperature regime" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 40, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150507349B" } } }
