A mode-coupling theory for dense polymeric systems is developed which unifyingly incorporates the segmental cage effect relevant for structural slowing down and polymer chain conformational degrees of freedom. An ideal glass transition of…
In this set of lecture notes we review the mode-coupling theory of the glass transition from several perspectives. First, we derive mode-coupling equations for the description of density fluctuations from microscopic considerations with the…
The only available quantitative description of the slowing down of the dynamics upon approaching the glass transition has been, so far, the mode-coupling theory, developed in the 80's by G\"otze and collaborators. The standard derivation of…
The stiff-glass approximation of the mode-coupling theory of the glass-transition--as introduced in a recent paper by G\"otze and Mayr for a discussion of phenomena resembling the Boson Peak and High-Frequency Sound observations made in…
We discuss a novel approach, the point-to-set correlation functions, that allows to determine relevant static and dynamic length scales in glass-forming liquids. We find that static length scales increase monotonically when the temperature…
We present a new time-dependent Density Functional approach to study the relaxational dynamics of an assembly of interacting particles subject to thermal noise. Starting from the Langevin stochastic equations of motion for the velocities of…
We derive a microscopic theory for the structural dynamics in the vicinity of the glass transition for a liquid exposed to a one-dimensional periodic potential. The periodic potential breaks translational invariance, in particular, the…
Generalized mode-coupling theory (GMCT) has recently emerged as a promising first-principles theory to study the poorly understood dynamics of glass-forming materials. Formulated as a hierarchical extension of standard mode-coupling theory…
A new theory for dynamics of concentrated colloidal suspensions and the colloidal glass transition is proposed. The starting point is the memory function representation of the density correlation function. The memory function can be…
The predictions of the mode-coupling theory (MCT) for the dynamical arrest scenarios in a partly pinned (PP) fluid system are reported. The corresponding dynamical phase diagram is found to be very similar to that of a related…
For almost thirty years, mode-coupling theory has been the most widely discussed and used but also the most controversial theory of the glass transition. In this paper we briefly review the reasons for both its popularity and its…
It has been shown recently that predictions from Mode-Coupling Theory for the glass transition of hard-spheres become increasingly bad when dimensionality increases, whereas replica theory predicts a correct scaling. Nevertheless if one…
A simple and general formalism for mode coupling by a spatial, temporal or spatiotemporal perturbation in dispersive materials is developed. This formalism can be used for studying various linear and non-linear optical interactions…
A microscopic approach is presented for calculating general properties of interacting Brownian particles under steady shearing. We start from exact expressions for shear-dependent steady-state averages, such as correlation and structure…
The equations of motion for the density modes of a fluid, derived from Newton's equations, are written as a linear generalized Langevin equation. The constraint imposed by the fluctuation-dissipation theorem is used to derive an exact form…
A methodology for handling block-to-block coupling of nonconforming, multiblock summation-by-parts finite difference methods is proposed. The coupling is based on the construction of projection operators that move a finite difference grid…
The mode-coupling theory of the glass transition predicts the time evolution of the intermediate scattering functions in viscous liquids on the sole basis of the structural information encoded in two-point density correlations. We provide a…
Recently, a theoretical framework known as {\it ballistic macroscopic fluctuation theory} has been developed to study large-scale fluctuations and correlations in many-body systems exhibiting ballistic transport. In this paper, we review…
Mode-mode coupling theory is presented for the resonant pumping via dynamical tunneling processes in a deformed microcavity. From the steady-state solution of the coupled differential equations of chaotic modes and a high-Q regular mode,…
We introduce a method to identify phase equations that include $N$-body interactions for general coupled oscillators valid far beyond the weak coupling approximation. This strategy is an extension of the theory from [Park and Wilson, SIADS…
