Distinguishable-particle Glassy Crystal: the simplest molecular model of glass

Leo S. I. Lam, Gautham Gopinath, Zichen Zhao +7

The nature of glassy dynamics and the glass transition are long-standing problems under active debate. In the presence of a structural disorder widely believed to be an essential c…

Not all that is is -function: the DGLAP resummation and the running coupling in NLO JIMWLK

Alex Kovner, Michael Lublinsky, Vladimir V. Skokov +1

We reanalyze the origin of the large transverse logarithms associated with the QCD one loop beta-function coefficient in the NLO JIMWLK Hamiltonian. We show that some of these term…
