Thermodynamical limit for correlated Gaussian random energy models

Abstract: Let

{E_{s} (N)}_{s i n S i g m a_{N}}

be a family of

| S i g m a_{N} | = 2^{N}

centered unit Gaussian random variables defined by the covariance matrix

C_{N}

of elements

d i s p l a y s t y l e c_{N} (s, a u) := a v E_{s} (N) E_{a u} (N)

, and

H_{N} (s) = - s q r t N E_{s} (N)

the corresponding random Hamiltonian. Then the quenched thermodynamical limit exists if, for every decomposition

N = N_{1} + N_{2}

, and all pairs

(s,) i n S i g m a_{N} i m e s S i g m a_{N}

:

c_N(s, au)leq frac{N_1}{N} c_{N_1}(pi_1(s),pi_1( au))+ frac{N_2}{N} c_{N_2}(pi_2(s),pi_2( au))

where

p i_{k} (s), k = 1, 2

are the projections of

s i n S i g m a_{N}

into

S i g m a_{N_{k}}

. The condition is explicitly verified for the Sherrington-Kirckpatrick, the even

p

-spin, the Derrida REM and the Derrida-Gardner GREM models.
