Sampling equilibrium configurations of three-dimensional (3D) spin glasses with quenched disorder remains a fundamental challenge in statistical physics. The rugged energy landscape, pronounced critical slowing down, and intrinsic ergodicity breaking render standard Monte Carlo methods severely inefficient, particularl...

Statistical physics extracts macroscopic laws by averaging over the many microscopic degrees of freedom of a system. Disordered systems demand a second and far harder average, one over the quenched randomness itself. The classic analytical routes, the replica and cavity methods, become uncontrolled outside mean-field o...

Exact sampling from the Boltzmann distribution of spin glasses remains an outstanding challenge: Markov chain Monte Carlo methods suffer from critical slowing down and metastable trapping, while modern neural autoregressive samplers such as variational autoregressive networks are approximate and, in the absence of exac...
