Abstract
We show that a generalized fluctuation-dissipation relation applies upon instantaneously increasing the temperature of a deeply supercooled liquid. This has the same two-step shape of the relation found upon cooling the liquid, but with opposite violation, indicating an effective temperature that is lower than bath temperature. We show that the effective temperature exhibits some sensible time-dependence and that it retains its connection with the partitioned phase space visited in ageing. We underline the potential relevance of our numerical results for experimental studies of the fluctuation-dissipation relation in glassy systems.
