Description
Using the discrete $\pm J$ bond distribution for the Sherrington-Kirkpatrick spin glass, all ground states for the entire ensemble of the bond disorder are enumerated. Although the combinatorial complexity of the enumeration severely restricts attainable system sizes, here $N\leq9$, some remarkably intricate patterns found in previous studies already emerge. The analysis of the exact ground state frequencies suggests a direct construction of their probability density function. Against expectations, the result suggests that its highly skewed appearance for finite $N$ evolves logarithmically slow towards a Gaussian distribution.
