Abstract

A unique analytical result for the Migdal-Kadanoff hierarchical lattice is obtained. The scaling of the defect energy for a zero-dimensional spin glass is derived for a bond distribution that is continuous at the origin. The value of the ``stiffness'' exponent in zero dimensions, y_0=-1, corresponds to the value also found in one dimension. This result complements and completes earlier findings for y_d at d>0.
