The statistics of critical points of Gaussian fields on   large-dimensional spaces
  We calculate the average number of critical points of a Gaussian field on a high-dimensional space as a function of their energy and their index. Our results give a complete picture of the organization of critical points and are of relevance to glassy and disordered systems, and to landscape scenarios coming from the anthropic approach to string theory.
