- In statistical physics of disordered systems, the random energy model is a toy model of a system with quenched disorder. It concerns the statistics of a system of [math]\displaystyle{ N }[/math] particles, such that the number of possible states for the systems grow as [math]\displaystyle{ 2^N }[/math] , while the energy of such states is a Gaussian stochastic variable. The model has an exact solution. Its simplicity makes this model suitable for pedagogical introduction of concepts like quenched disorder and replica symmetry.
