Scaling concepts for the dynamics of viscous liquids near an ideal glassy state
Abstract
Motivated by recent mean-field theories of the structural glass transition and of the Potts glass model we formulate a scaling and droplet picture of an assumed ideal structural glass transition. The phase transition is a random first-order phase transition where the supercooled-liquid phase is composed of glassy clusters separated by interfaces or domain walls. Because of entropic driving forces the glassy clusters are continually being created and destroyed. As the ideal transition temperature is approached the entropic driving force vanishes and the size of the glassy clusters diverges with an exponent of \ensuremath{\nu}=2/d. All long-time dynamical processes are activated and the Vogel-Fulcher law is obtained for the liquid-state relaxation time.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
