abstract

A discrete--dynamics model, which is specified solely in terms of the system's equilibrium structure, is defined for the density correlators of a simple fluid. This model yields results for the evolution of glassy dynamics which are identical with the ones obtained from the mode-coupling theory for ideal liquid--glass transitions. The decay of density fluctuations outside the transient regime is shown to be given by a superposition of Debye processes. The concept of structural relaxation is given a precise meaning. It is proven that the long-time part of the mode-coupling-theory solutions is structural relaxation, while the transient motion merely determines an overall time scale for the glassy dynamics.

  • A Shared Observation Shields Collective Fluctuations while Preserving Local Independence cond-mat.stat-mech · 2026-08-08 · conditional · none · ref 85 · internal anchor

    Conditioning an exchangeable population on its own noisy collective record produces a rank-one, nonpositive Schur shield correction to collective fluctuations while keeping pair correlations at O(1/z), giving a calculable baseline for dynamical heterogeneity in glassy systems.
