In the mode coupling theory of the liquid to glass transition the long time structural relaxation follows from equations solely determined by equilibrium structural parameters. The present extension of these structural relaxation equations to arbitrarily short times on the one hand allows calculations unaffected by model assumptions about the microscopic dynamics and on the other hand supplies new starting points for analytical studies. As a first application, power-law like structural relaxation at a glass-transition singularity is explicitly proven for a special schematic MCT model.
