An Almost Sure Central Limit Theorem for the Hopfield Model

1997, v.3, Issue 2, 151-173

ABSTRACT

We prove a central limit theorem for the finite dimensional marginals of the Gibbs distribution of the macroscopic `overlap'-parameters in the Hopfield model in the case where the number of random `patterns' $M$ as a function of the system size $N$ satisfies $\lim_{N\uparrow\infty} M(N)/N=0$, without any assumptions on the speed of convergence. The covariance matrix of the limiting gaussian distributions is diagonal and independent of the disorder for almost all realizations of the patterns.
