Description
Spin glasses at low temperature, display a non-ergodic phase characterized by an exponential number of pure states. The properties of the corresponding Gibbs measure have been characterized through the heuristic replica method culminated in the celebrated Parisi formula for low temperature spin glasses. The scope of these lectures will be to describe and analyze rigorously the properties of the Parisi formula for several spin glass models.
