Abstract

We derive the Thouless–Anderson–Palmer (TAP) equations for the Ghatak and Sherrington model (J Phys C 10(16):3149–3156, 1977). Our derivation, based on the cavity method, holds at high temperature and at all values of the crystal field. It confirms the prediction of Yokota (J Phys Condens Matter 4(10):2615–2622, 1992).
