title: Stable solution of the simplest spin model for inverse freezing.
abstract: We analyze the Blume-Emery-Griffiths-Capel model with disordered interaction that displays the inverse freezing phenomenon. The behavior of this spin-1 model in crystal field is studied throughout the phase diagram, and the transition lines are computed using the full replica symmetry breaking ansatz. We compare the results both with the formulation of the same model in terms of Ising spins on lattice gas, where no reentrance takes place, and with the model with generalized spin variables recently introduced by Schupper and Shnerb [Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 037202 (2004)], for which the reentrance is enhanced as the ratio between the degeneracy of full to empty sites increases. The simplest version of all these models, known as the Ghatak-Sherrington model, turns out to hold all the general features characterizing an inverse transition to an amorphous phase.
