A constrained TAP approach for disordered spin models: application to the mixed spherical case

We revisit the metastability properties of the mixed p-spin spherical disordered models. Firstly, using known methods, we show that there is temperature chaos in a broad range of temperatures. Secondly, we modify the definition of the Thouless-Anderson-Palmer free energy density by including constraints that enforce a chosen overlap between the searched metastable states and another reference state, that could be a characteristic one of a different temperature. We argue that this refined analysis provides clues to understand the weird behaviour of the low temperature relaxation dynamics of these models, and suggests ways to improve the treatment of the initial conditions to overcome the difficulties encountered so far.
