Anomalous non-linear response of glassy liquids: general arguments and a Mode-Coupling approach

Marco Tarzia, Giulio Biroli, Jean-Philippe Bouchaud +1

We study theoretically the non-linear response properties of glass formers. We establish several general results which, together with the assumption of Time-Temperature Superpositi…

The building blocks of dynamical heterogeneities in dense granular media

R. Candelier, O. Dauchot, G. Biroli

We investigate experimentally the connection between short time dynamics and long time dynamical heterogeneities within a dense granular media under cyclic shear. We show that dyna…

Driven quantum coarsening

Camille Aron, Giulio Biroli, Leticia Cugliandolo

We study the driven dynamics of quantum coarsening. We analyze models of M-component rotors coupled to two electronic reservoirs at different chemical potentials that generate a cu…

Theory of the superglass phase

Giulio Biroli, Claudio Chamon, Francesco Zamponi

A superglass is a phase of matter which is characterized at the same time by superfluidity and a frozen amorphous structure. We introduce a model of interacting bosons in three dim…

Thermodynamic signature of growing amorphous order in glass-forming liquids

G. Biroli, J. -P. Bouchaud, A. Cavagna +2

Although several theories relate the steep slowdown of glass formers to increasing spatial correlations of some sort, standard static correlation functions show no evidence for thi…

The Valence Bond Glass phase

M. Tarzia, G. Biroli

We show that a new glassy phase can emerge in presence of strong magnetic frustration and quantum fluctuations. It is a Valence Bond Glass. We study its properties solving the Hubb…
