Abstract
Abstract Our goal in this work is to better understand the relationship between replica symmetry breaking, shattering, and metastability. To this end, we study the static and dynamic behaviour of spherical pure p ‐spin glasses above the replica symmetry breaking temperature . In this regime, we find that there are at least two distinct temperatures related to non‐trivial behaviour. First we prove that there is a regime of temperatures in which the spherical p ‐spin model exhibits a shattering phase. Our results holds in a regime above but near . We then find that metastable states exist up to an even higher temperature as predicted by Barrat–Burioni–Mézard which is expected to be higher than the phase boundary for the shattering phase . We develop this work by first developing a Thouless–Anderson–Palmer decomposition which builds on the work of Subag. We then present a series of questions and conjectures regarding the sharp phase boundaries for shattering and slow mixing.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
