A theoretical perspective is provided on the glass transition in molecular liquids at thermal
equilibrium, on the spatially heterogeneous and aging dynamics of disordered materials …

Amorphous solids, or glasses, are distinguished from crystalline solids by their lack of long-
range structural order. At the level of two-body structural correlations, glassformers show no …

Understanding glass formation is a challenge, because the existence of a true glass state,
distinct from liquid and solid, remains elusive: Glasses are liquids that have become too …

There are at least three fundamental states of matter, depending upon temperature and
pressure: gas, liquid, and solid (crystal). These states are separated by first-order phase …

We review a theoretical perspective of the dynamics of glass-forming liquids and the glass
transition, a perspective developed during this past decade based on the structure of …

In this review a systematic analysis of the potential energy landscape (PEL) of glass-forming
systems is presented. Starting from the thermodynamics, the route towards the dynamics is …

We show that the dynamics of kinetically constrained models of glass formers takes place at
a first-order coexistence line between active and inactive dynamical phases. We prove this …

One of the most spectacular phenomena in physics in terms of dynamical range is the glass
transition and the associated slowing down of flow and relaxation with decreasing …

We investigate the dynamics of kinetically constrained models of glass formers by analysing
the statistics of trajectories of the dynamics, or histories, using large deviation function …

We reformulate the interpretation of the mean-field glass transition scenario for finite
dimensional systems, proposed by Kirkpatrick, Thirumalai, and Wolynes (KTW)[Phys. Rev. A …
