ON THE RELAXATION OF INFINITE-RANGE SPIN-GLASSES

The relaxation of the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model for spin glasses is studied at low temperatures. A recently developed numerical method is used by which an infinitely large system is simulated, hence finite size effects are avoided. For parallel dynamics the decay of the energy as well as of the magnetization is investigated. For low temperatures we find evidence for a relaxation into a state which is characterized by non-equilibrium values of the energy and a non-vanishing remanent magnetization.
