The hypersphere model is a simple one-parameter model of the potential energy landscape of viscous liquids, which is defined as a percolating system of same-radius hyperspheres randomly distributed in $\mathbb{R}^{3N}$ in which $N$ is the…
Unlike crystalline solids or ideal gases, transport properties remain difficult to describe from a microscopic point of view in liquids, whose dynamics result from complex energetic and entropic contributions at the atomic scale. Two…

Many successful theories of liquids near the melting temperature assume that small length scale density fluctuations follow Gaussian statistics. In this paper I present numerical investigations of fluctuations in the supercooled viscous…
