Abstract

I present here some results on the mean field theory approach to the statistical mechanics of a D-dimensional array of Josephson junctions in the presence of a magnetic field. The mean field theory equations are obtained by computing the thermodynamical properties. In the high temperature region in the limit D→∞, where the problem is simplified, this limit defines the mean field approximation. Close to the transition point the system behaves very similar to a particular form of spin glasses, i.e., to gauge glasses. We have noticed that in this limit the evaluation of the coefficients of the high temperature expansion may be mapped onto the computation of some matrix elements for the q-deformed harmonic oscillator. The same arguments can be used to predict the thermodynamical properties in the mean field limit. These results can be extended to the low temperature phase using a conjecture on the equivalence of some system without disorder with appropriate random systems.
