Abstract

Energy spectra of disordered systems share a common feature: if the entropy of the quenched disorder is larger than the entropy of the dynamical variables, the spectrum is locally that of a random energy model and the correlation between energy and configuration is lost. We demonstrate this effect for the Edwards-Anderson model, but we also discuss its universality.
