The Aizenman-Sims-Starr scheme and Parisi formula for mixed p-spin spherical models

The Parisi formula for the free energy in the spherical models with mixed even p-spin interactions was proven in Michel Talagrand [16]. In this paper we study the general mixed p-spin spherical models including p-spin interactions for odd p. We establish the Aizenman-Sims-Starr scheme and from this together with many well-known results and Dmitry Panchenko's recent proof on the Parisi ultrametricity conjecture [11], we prove the Parisi formula.
