The author summarizes results, obtained with coauthors, which concern the thermodynamic limit of the one-dimensional random energy model (REM) and the generalized random energy model (GREM) introduced by B. Derrida as reasonable simplifications to the spin glass models. Theorem 1.1 describes the convergence to the free energy \(F_ n(\beta)\) of \({1\over N}\log Z_{n,N}\) with \(Z_{n,N}\) being the partition sum of GREM. Theorem 1.3 is Theorem 1.1 for \(n=1\). Both Theorem 1.1 and Theorem 1.3 are proved. Theorem 1.2 compares the fluctuations \({1\over N}\log Z_{n,N}-F_ n(\beta)\) with \({\log N\over N}\) for large \(N\). -- Several misprints may make small troubles to the reader (Theorem 1.3 is unclearly denoted, \(\beta'\) stands in (1.19) instead of \(\beta^ 2)\). The relationship of the introduced theorems and proofs to the mentioned references is unfortunately not explained. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0752.00058].
