Abstract: We study aspects of the thermodynamics of quantum versions of spin glasses. By means of the Lie-Trotter formula for exponential sums of operators, we adapt methods used to analyze classical spin glass models to answer analogous questions about quantum models.

Review text

The author extends classical spin glass results to quantum models in two directions. First, the existence of the quenched free energy of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass with a transverse external field is demonstrated. Second, the author gives a complementary result which shows that a large class of quantum spin glasses, including the transverse Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model, satisfies universality, that is as the size of the system goes to infinity, the asymptotics of the free energy of the system do not depend on the type odf disorder used to define model.
