Geometrical picture of dynamical facilitation
Kinetically constrained models (KCMs) are models of glass formers based on the concept of dynamic facilitation. This concept accounts for many of the characteristics of the glass transition. KCMs usually display a combination of simple thermodynamics and complex glassy dynamics, the latter being a consequence of kinetic constraints. Here we show that KCMs can be regarded as systems whose config...
متن کاملGeometrical Picture for Spin Glasses
{ A controversial issue in spin glass theory is whether mean eld correctly describes 3-dimensional spin glasses. If it does, how can replica symmetry breaking arise in terms of spin clusters in Euclidean space? Here we argue that there exist system-size low energy excitations that are \sponge-like", generating multiple valleys separated by diverging energy barriers. The droplet model should be ...
متن کاملGeometrical Theory of Dynamical Systems
Preface This text is a slightly edited version of lecture notes for a course I gave at ETH, during the Winter term 2000-2001, to undergraduate Mathematics and Physics students. The choice of topics covered here is somewhat arbitrary, and was partly imposed by time limitations. Evidently, these notes do not intend to replace the many existing excellent textbooks on the subject, a few of which ar...
متن کاملA dynamical picture of the oceanic tides
A detailed treatment of tide-generating forces is given, followed by a simplified dynamic theory of tidal waves. To clarify the underlying physics, we use a simple model of the ocean that consists of a water shell of uniform depth completely covering the globe. The treatment is appropriate for college and university undergraduate students studying introductory geophysics or astronomy, general p...
متن کاملDynamic facilitation picture of a higher-order glass singularity.
We show that facilitated spin mixtures with a tunable facilitation reproduce, on a Bethe lattice, the simplest higher-order singularity scenario predicted by the mode-coupling theory (MCT) of liquid-glass transition. Depending on the facilitation strength, they yield either a discontinuous glass transition or a continuous one, with no underlying thermodynamic singularity. Similar results are ob...
