Nonperturbative fluctuations and metastability in a simple model: from observables to microscopic theory and back
Charlotte Rulquin, Pierfrancesco Urbani, Giulio Biroli +2
Slow dynamics in glassy systems is often interpreted as due to thermally activated events between "metastable" states. This emphasizes the role of nonperturbative fluctuations, whi…
A note on weakly discontinuous dynamical transitions
Silvio Franz, Giorgio Parisi, Federico Ricci-Tersenghi +2
We analyze Mode Coupling discontinuous transition in the limit of vanishing discontinuity, approaching the so called "" point. In these conditions structural relaxation and fl…
Static replica approach to critical correlations in glassy systems
Silvio Franz, Hugo Jacquin, Giorgio Parisi +2
We discuss the slow relaxation phenomenon in glassy systems by means of replicas by constructing a static field theory approach to the problem. At the mean field level we study how…
