Role of the interaction matrix in mean-field spin glass models.
Mean-field models of two-spin Ising spin glasses with interaction matrices taken from ensembles that are invariant under O(N) transformations are studied. A general study shows that the nature of the spin glass transition can be deduced from the eigenvalue spectrum of the interaction matrix. A simple replica approach is derived to carry out the average over the O(N) disorder. The analytic results are confirmed by the extensive Monte Carlo simulations for large system sizes and by the exact enumeration for small system sizes.
