Abstract
Mean field spin glass theory has undergone tremendous development in the last twenty years, particularly with the proof of the Parisi formula for evaluating limiting free energy at any temperature. However, as a variational formula, it is less effective for dealing with higher-order asymptotics, such as related fluctuation problems. This thesis, composed of several papers, is devoted to establishing fluctuation results for a broad range of mean field spin glass models by developing several different techniques.
