It is now well established that structural glasses possess disorder- and frustration-induced soft quasilocalized excitations, which play key roles in various glassy phenomena. Recent work has established that in model glass-formers in three…
In addition to Goldstone phonons that generically emerge in the low-frequency vibrational spectrum of any solid, crystalline or glassy, structural glasses also feature other low-frequency vibrational modes. The nature and statistical…
The universal form of the density of nonphononic, quasilocalized vibrational modes of frequency $\omega$ in structural glasses, ${\cal D}(\omega)$, was predicted theoretically decades ago, but only recently revealed in numerical…
It is now established that glasses feature low-frequency, nonphononic excitations, in addition to phonons that follow Debye's vibrational density of state (VDoS). Extensive computer studies demonstrated that these nonphononic, glassy…
Glasses feature universally low-frequency excess vibrational modes beyond Debye prediction, which could help rationalize, e.g., the glasses' unusual temperature dependence of thermal properties compared to crystalline solids. The way the…
We summarize the salient features of our theory of non-phononic vibrational excitations in glasses [W. Schirmacher et al., Nature Comm. 15, 3107 (2024)]. Next, we provide further evidence of the non-universality of the $\omega^4$ scaling of…
Structural glasses formed by quenching a melt are known to host a population of low-energy quasilocalized (nonphononic) excitations whose frequencies $\omega$ follow a universal $\sim\!\omega^4$ distribution as $\omega\!\to\!0$,…
It has been established that the low frequency quasi-localized modes of amorphous solids at zero temperature exhibit universal density of states, depending on the frequencies as $D(\omega) \sim \omega^4$. It remains an open question whether…
Low frequency quasi-localized modes of amorphous glasses appear to exhibit universal density of states, depending on the frequencies as $D(\omega) \sim \omega^4$. To date various models of glass formers with short range binary interaction,…
We numerically study the evolution of the vibrational density of states $D(\omega)$ of zero-temperature glasses when their kinetic stability is varied over an extremely broad range, ranging from poorly annealed glasses obtained by…
It is now well established that glasses feature quasilocalized nonphononic excitations --- coined "soft spots"---, which follow a universal $\omega^4$ density of states in the limit of low frequencies $\omega$. All glass-specific…
The theoretical understanding of the low-frequency modes in amorphous solids at finite temperature is still incomplete. The study of the relevant modes is obscured by the dressing of inter-particle forces by collision-induced momentum…
The scaling form and system-size dependence of the low-frequency wing of the nonphononic vibrational spectrum of two-dimensional structural glasses have been debated in recent literature. Here we provide numerical evidence that the…
We report an analytical study of the vibrational spectrum of the simplest model of jamming, the soft perceptron. We identify two distinct classes of soft modes. The first kind of modes are related to isostaticity and appear only in the…
Structural glasses feature quasilocalized excitations whose frequencies $\omega$ follow a universal density of states ${\cal D}(\omega)\!\sim\!\omega^4$. Yet, the underlying physics behind this universality is not fully understood. Here we…
It was recently shown that different simple models of glass formers with binary interactions define a universality class in terms of the density of states of their quasi-localized low-frequency modes. Explicitly, once the hybridization with…
Low-frequency vibrational modes play a central role in determining various basic properties of glasses, yet their statistical and mechanical properties are not fully understood. Using extensive numerical simulations of several model glasses…
It has been recently shown [E. Lerner, G. D\"uring, and E. Bouchbinder, Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 035501 (2016)] that the non-phononic vibrational modes of structural glasses at low-frequencies $\omega$ are quasi-localized and follow a…
To better understand the surprising low-frequency vibrational modes in structural glasses, we study the spectra of a large ensemble of sparse random matrices where disorder is controlled by the distribution of bond weights and network…
The unconventional thermal properties of jammed amorphous solids are directly related to their density of vibrational states. While the vibrational spectrum of jammed soft sphere solids has been fully described, the vibrational spectrum of…
