We provide a theoretical description of dynamical heterogeneities in glass-forming liquids,
based on the premise that relaxation occurs via local rearrangements coupled by elasticity …

Glasses are ubiquitous in nature. Many common items such as ketchups, cosmetic products,
toothpaste, etc. and metallic glasses are examples of such glassy materials whose …

Dynamics is central to living systems. Many experiments in the last two decades have
revealed glassy dynamics in diverse biological systems, showing a transition between a …

As a liquid is quenched into glassy state, characterizing the glassy order responsible for
glass transition in disordered liquid structures is a longstanding challenge. Here, an …

The origin of the rapid dynamical slowdown in glass forming liquids in the growth of static
length scales, possibly associated with identifiable structural ordering, is a much debated …

Non-Gaussian nature of the probability distribution of particles' displacements in the
supercooled temperature regime in glass-forming liquids are believed to be one of the major …

Machine learning techniques have been used to quantify the relationship between local
structural features and variations in local dynamical activity in disordered glass-forming …

Active glassy systems are simple model systems that imitate complex biological processes.
Sometimes, it becomes crucial to estimate the amount of activity present in such biological …

The term “fragility” describes the rate at which viscosity grows when a supercooled liquid
approaches its putative glass transition temperature. The field of glassy materials is actively …

The existence of heterogeneity in the dynamics of supercooled liquids is believed to be one
of the hallmarks of the glass transition. Intense research has been carried out in the past to …
