Microscopic theory of network glasses.
A theory of the glass transition of network liquids is developed using self-consistent phonon and liquid state approaches. The dynamical transition and entropy crisis characteristic of random first-order transitions are mapped as a function of the degree of bonding and density. Using a scaling relation for a soft-core model to crudely translate the densities into temperatures, theory predicts t...
متن کاملProbability Theory and Spin Glasses
Physicists have proposed a wealth of new ideas concerning the collective behavior of large families of random variables, in which they have discovered the emergence of new types of order. The quest for mathematically rigorous proofs of their conjectures is likely to challenge and stimulate probabilists for years to come.
متن کاملField theory of fluctuations in glasses.
We develop a field-theoretical description of dynamical heterogeneities and fluctuations in supercooled liquids close to the (avoided) MCT singularity. Using quasi-equilibrium arguments, we eliminate time from the description and we completely characterize fluctuations in the beta regime. We identify different sources of fluctuations and show that the most relevant ones are associated to variat...
متن کاملQuantum field theory of metallic spin glasses.
We introduce an effective field theory for the vicinity of a zero temperature quantum transition between a metallic spin glass (“spin density glass”) and a metallic quantum paramagnet. Following a mean field analysis, we perform a perturbative renormalization-group study and find that the critical properties are dominated by static disorder-induced fluctuations, and that dynamic quantum-mechani...
متن کاملTheory of structural glasses and supercooled liquids.
We review the random first-order transition theory of the glass transition, emphasizing the experimental tests of the theory. Many distinct phenomena are quantitatively predicted or explained by the theory, both above and below the glass transition temperature T(g). These include the following: the viscosity catastrophe and heat-capacity jump at T(g), and their connection; the nonexponentiality...
