When relaxation towards an equilibrium or steady state is exponential at large times, one usually considers that the associated relaxation time $\tau$, i.e., the inverse of that decay rate, is the longest characteristic time in the system.…
We compute for an archetypical glass-forming system the excess of particle mobility distributions over the corresponding distribution of dynamic propensity, a quantity that measures the tendency of the particles to be mobile and reflects…
Effects of temperature changes on the nonequilibrium spin-glass dynamics of a strongly interacting ferromagnetic nanoparticle system (superspin glass) are studied. In contrary to atomic spin glasses, strong cooling rate effects are…
We investigate by means of Monte Carlo simulations the fully connected p-state Potts model for different system sizes in order to see how the static and dynamic properties of a finite model compare with the, exactly known, behavior of the…
We present some numerical results for the Heisenberg spin-glass model with Gaussian interactions, in a three dimensional cubic lattice. We measure the AC susceptibility as a function of temperature and determine an apparent finite…
The spin dynamics of the strongly localized, donor-bound electrons in fluorine-doped ZnSe epilayers is studied by pump-probe Kerr rotation techniques. A method exploiting the spin inertia is developed and used to measure the longitudinal…
Ozawa et. al [1] presented numerical results for the configurational entropy density, $s_c$, of a model glass-forming liquid in the presence of random pinning. The location of a "phase boundary" in the pin density ($c$) - temperature ($T$)…
The real time evolution of field condensates with soft length scales k^{-1}>(eT)^{-1} is solved in hot scalar electrodynamics, with a view towards understanding relaxational phenomena in the QGP and the electroweak plasma. We find that…
The physics of glass has been a significant topic of interest for decades. Dynamical facilitation is widely believed to be an important characteristic of glassy dynamics, but the precise mechanism is still under debate. We propose a lattice…
Elastic models of the glass transition relate the relaxation dynamics and the elastic properties of structural glasses. They are based on the assumption that the relaxation dynamics occurs through activated events in the energy landscape…
Microscopic relaxation timescales are estimated from the autocorrelation functions obtained by dynamic light scattering experiments for Laponite suspensions with different concentrations ($C_{L}$), added salt concentrations ($C_{S}$) and…
We introduce a family of local models of dynamics based on ``word problems'' from computer science and group theory, for which we can place rigorous lower bounds on relaxation timescales. These models can be regarded either as random…
The short- and long-time dynamics of model systems undergoing a glass transition with apparent inversion of Kauzmann and dynamical arrest glass transition lines is investigated. These models belong to the class of the spherical mean-field…
We analyze the relaxation to equilibrium for kinetically constrained spin models (KCSM) when the initial distribution $\nu$ is different from the reversible one, $\mu$. This setting has been intensively studied in the physics literature to…
We review the recently proposed elastic approach to glass transition. This approach is based on a simple and a physically transparent idea of elastic interactions between local relaxation events in a liquid. Central to this picture is the…
We propose that the properties of glass transition can be understood on the basis of elastic waves. Elastic waves originating from atomic jumps in a liquid propagate local expansion due to the anharmonicity of interatomic potential. This…
Analysis of temperature dependence of structural relaxation time in supercooled liquids revealed a qualitatively distinct feature - a sharp, cusp-like maxumum in the second derivative of its logarithm. It suggests that the super-Arrhenius…
For large but finite systems the static properties of the infinite ranged Sherrington-Kirkpatrick model are numerically investigated in the entire the glass regime. The approach is based on the modified Thouless-Anderson-Palmer equations in…
A major mystery of glass-forming liquids is the non-Arrhenius temperature-dependence of the average relaxation time. This paper briefly reviews the classical phenomenological models for this phenomenon - the free-volume model and the…
In a recent publication we established an analogy between the free energy of a hard sphere system and the energy of an elastic network [1]. This result enables one to study the free energy landscape of hard spheres, in particular to define…
