Properties of the full replica symmetry breaking free energy functional of the Ising spin glass on random regular graph
Abstract
We analyze the full replica symmetry breaking (full--RSB) free energy functional for the Ising spin glass on a random regular graph proposed by the author in MyPaper. We prove that the full--RSB formulation provides an improvement over any replica symmetry breaking approximation with a finite number of steps (finite--RSB), based on the M\'ezard-Parisi ansatz ParMezRRG1. We provide a representation of that functional as the unique solution to a well-posed backward stochastic differential equation. This stochastic formulation enables a refined analysis of the functional and the computation of the derivatives with respect to the order parameters of the model. The techniques developed here hold potential interest for broader areas such as calculus of variations, stochastic optimal control, and functional analysis.
