The cavity method: from exact solutions to algorithms (2209.11499v1)
Published 23 Sep 2022 in cond-mat.dis-nn, cs.DM, and math.PR
Abstract: The goal of this chapter is to review the main ideas that underlie the cavity method for disordered models defined on random graphs, as well as present some of its outcomes, focusing on the random constraint satisfaction problems for which it provided both a better understanding of the phase transitions they undergo, and suggestions for the development of algorithms to solve them.
