We analyze the low-temperature behavior of mean-field equations of Thouless, Anderson, and Palmer (TAP). We demonstrate that degeneracy in free energy makes the low-temperature TAP states unstable. Different solutions of the TAP equations, independent in the TAP approach, become coupled if an infinitesimal interaction between them is introduced. By means of real spin replicas we derive a self-averaging free energy free of unstable states with local magnetizations and homogeneous overlap susceptibilities between different spin replicas as order parameters. We thereby extend the TAP approach to a consistent description of the spin-glass phase for all configurations of spin couplings with (marginally) stable and thermodynamically homogeneous free energy.
