Statistics of Thermal Avalanches in Driven Amorphous Systems

Zhiyu Cao, Peter G. Wolynes

Within the framework of the random first-order transition theory of glasses, we discuss the statistics of thermal avalanches, the large scale rearrangements in driven amorphous sys…

Bonding and the dynamics of glassy network liquids

M. H. Brown, P. G. Wolynes

The Random First Order Transition (RFOT) theory of glasses provides a unified framework for explaining the observed correlations of the kinetic and thermodynamic behaviors of glass…

The Random First Order Transition Theory of Glasses in Real Space-Time: Instantons, Strings, Flames and Flows

Peter G. Wolynes

Understanding structural glasses using the Random First Order Transition theory requires a description in both real space and in time, taking into account sample history. A variety…

Quantum Information Scrambling in Molecules

Chenghao Zhang, Peter G. Wolynes, Martin Gruebele

Out-of-time-order correlators (OTOCs) can be used to probe how quickly a quantum system scrambles information when the initial conditions of the dynamics are changed. In sufficient…

Stochastic resonances in a distributed genetic broadcasting system: the NF\k{appa}B/I\k{appa}B paradigm

Zhipeng Wang, Davit A Potoyan, Peter G Wolynes

Gene regulatory networks must relay information from extracellular signals to downstream genes in an efficient, timely and coherent manner. Many complex functional tasks such as th…

Localization of Energetic Frustration in Proteins

A. Brenda Guzovsky, Nicholas P. Schafer, Peter G. Wolynes +1

We present a detailed heuristic method to quantify the degree of local energetic frustration manifested by protein molecules. Current applications are realized in computational exp…
