DESCRIPTION:Title: On the TAP equations and the local magnetization of the 
 Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) mode.\n\nAbstract: The TAP equations for the 
 Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model are a set of high-dimensional\, nonlinear\, 
 fixed-point equations of the local magnetization. In the seminal work [Com
 m. Math. Phys.\, 325(1):333-366\, 2014]\, Bolthausen introduced an iterati
 ve scheme that produces an asymptotic solution to the TAP equations if the
  model lies below the Almeida-Thouless transition line (“high temperature 
 regime”). However\, it was unclear if this asymptotic solution coincides w
 ith the local magnetization. In this talk\, I will introduce a new iterati
 ve scheme\, motivated by the cavity equations of the SK model\, and show t
 hat the new scheme is asymptotically the same as the so-called Approximate
  Message Passing (AMP) algorithm\, a generalization of Bolthausen's iterat
 ion\, that has been popularly adapted in compressed sensing\, Bayesian inf
 erences\, etc. Based on this\, we confirm that our cavity iteration (and h
 ence Bolthausen's iteration) converges to the local magnetization as long 
 as the overlap is locally uniformly concentrated. If time permits\, I will
  also briefly discuss the TAP equations in the low temperature regime. The
  talk is based on joint works with Wei-Kuo Chen (University of Minnesota).
