Glassy Transition and Aging in a Model without Disorder

Condensed Matter 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We study the off-equilibrium relaxational dynamics of the Amit-Roginsky ϕ3\phi^3 field theory, for which the mode coupling approximation is exact. We show that complex phenomena such as aging and ergodicity breaking are present at low temperature, similarly to what is found in long range spin glasses. This is a generalization of mode coupling theory of the structural glass transition to off-equilibrium situations.
