Recently it has been shown that a strongly interacting colloidal mixture consisting of oppositely driven particles, undergoes a nonequilibrium transition towards lane formation provided the driving strength exceeds a threshold value. We…
It is proposed to understand finite dimensional spin glasses using a $1/m$ expansion, where $m$ is the number of spin components. It is shown that this approach predicts a replica symmetric state in finite dimensions. The point about which…
We use computer simulations to investigate the static properties of a simple glass-forming fluid in which the positions of a finite fraction of the particles has been frozen in. By probing the equilibrium distribution of the overlap between…
A comprehensive microscopic dynamical theory is presented for the description of quantum fluids as they transform into glasses. The theory is based on a quantum extension of mode-coupling theory. Novel effects are predicted, such as…
We show that in mean-field spin glasses, a discontinuous breaking of replica symmetry at the critical inverse temperature $\beta_c$ implies the existence of an intermediate shattered phase. This confirms a prediction from physics regarding…
We use the Self Consisten Generalized Langevin Equation theory (SCGLE) to study the dynamic arrest transitions of a system of three species of hard sphere colloidal system in the size ratio 1:3:9. We find that the inclusion of the smallest…
We have considered the two-spin interaction spherical spin-glass model with asymmetric bonds (coupling constants). Besides the usual interactions between spins and bonds and between the spins and a thermostat with temperature $T_{\sigma}$…
The synergetic approach proposed here is based on characteristic instability of chemical bonding in the form of the bond wave considered as the spatiotemporal correlation between the elementary acts of bond exchange. In frames of the model,…
In these lectures I will review the approach to glasses based on the replica formalism. Many of the physical ideas are very similar to those of older approaches. The replica approach has the advantage of describing in an unified setting…
Using molecular dynamics simulation we examine changeovers among crystal, glass, and liquid at high density in a two dimensional binary mixture. We change the ratio between the diameters of the two components and the temperature. The…
We compute the thermodynamic properties of the glass phase in a binary mixture of soft spheres. Our approach is a generalization to mixtures of the replica strategy, recently proposed by Mezard and Parisi, providing a first principle…
We study the three-spin model and the Ising spin glass in a field using Migdal-Kadanoff approximation. The flows of the couplings and fields indicate no phase transition, but they show even for the three-spin model a slow crossover to the…
A spin-glass transition occurs both in and out of the limit of validity of mean-field theory on a diluted one dimensional chain of Ising spins where exchange bonds occur with a probability decaying as the inverse power of the distance.…
Understanding the phase behavior of mixtures with many components is important in many contexts, including as a key step toward a physics-based description of intracellular compartmentalization. Here, we study the instabilities of a mixture…
Compared to pure fluids, binary mixtures display a very diverse phase behavior, which depends sensitively on the parameters of the microscopic potential. Here we investigate the phase diagrams of simple model mixtures by use of a…
In a $p$-spin interaction spherical spin-glass model both the spins and the couplings are allowed to change in the course of time. The spins are coupled to a heat bath with temperature $T$, while the coupling constants are coupled to a bath…
Numerical simulations on Ising Spin Glasses show that spin glass transitions do not obey the usual universality rules which hold at canonical second order transitions. On the other hand the dynamics at the approach to the transition appear…
We discuss a generic mechanism for shear-thickening analogous to entropy-driven phase reentrance. We implement it in the context of non-relaxational mean-field glassy systems: although very simple, the microscopic models we study present a…
The kinetic glass transition in short-range attractive colloids is theoretically studied by time-convolutionless mode-coupling theory (TMCT). By numerical calculations, TMCT is shown to recover all the remarkable features predicted by the…
Spinner mixtures consisting of both clockwise and counterclockwise self-spinning particles are often expected to phase separate. However, we demonstrate that such a demixing is absent for dimer (or rod-like) spinners. These particles always…
