Description

We propose a new iterative construction of solutions of the classical TAP equations for the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model. The algorithm can be started in an arbitrary point, and converges up to the AT line. The analysis relies on a novel treatment of mean field algorithms through Stein’s method. As such, the approach also yields weak convergence of the effective fields at all temperatures towards Gaussians.
