Abstract
In this paper we show that the investigation of all thermodynamically relevant equilibrium configurations and some non equilibrium ones in a SK spin glass model can be studied using the replica method applied on a system composed of R real replicas constrained to have fixed values of the overlaps between themselves. Most of the results presented here are restricted to the case R=2.
