Deterministic spin models with a glassy phase transition

Abstract

We consider the infinite-range deterministic spin models with Hamiltonian $H=\sum_{i,j=1}^N J_{i,j}\sigma_i\sigma_j$, where $J$ is the quantization of a chaotic map of the torus. The mean field (TAP) equations are derived by summing the high temperature expansion. They predict a glassy phase transition at the critical temperature $T\sim 0.8$.
