Self-Averaging Identities for Random Spin Systems

Abstract

We provide a systematic treatment of self-averaging identities for various spin systems. The method is quite general, basically not relying on the nature of the model, and as a special case recovers the Ghirlanda-Guerra and Aizenman-Contucci identities, which are therefore proven, together with their extension, to be valid in a vaste class of spin models. We use the dilute spin glass as a guiding example.
