Speaker: Benjamin Landon - MIT

The SSK model was introduced by Kosterlitz, Thouless and Jones as a simplification of the usual SK model with Ising spins. Fluctuations of its observables may be related to quantities from random matrix theory using integral representations. In this informal talk we discuss some results on fluctuations of this model at critical temperature and with a magnetic field.
